We ate bad last night :(
We trained (I worked out 2.5 hours..him 1) and we were out of stuff to make dinner (we almost always plan for one week and cook at home). So we went out. That, and I really wanted SPICY food.
So we went to our local thai and chinese place.
We both had an eggroll and shared a plate of Garlic Chicken.
Not the worst...but not the best!

OK, don't all puke at once after reading this, but...I'm having macaroni and cheese with pickle relish and diced jalepenos stirred in. I think it's delicious; no one else ever seems to agree. :P

Actually that sounds really fucking good. However, jalapenos are going around with salmonella. So I'm not going to touch them for now.
As for dinner: Baked coconut chicken and green beans.

Veggie bacon, bbq, cheese, and onion ring burgers! Sooo good! A great way to spice up a boring veggie burger.

Lighter blue cheese dressing:

1 c. low fat buttermilk
1 tbsp red wine vinegar
2 tbsp low fat mayo (I actually use vegannaise)
2 oz crumbled blue cheese
salt and pepper to taste

Just mix it all up and eat!! I like lots of pepper in mine. :)

eat canned ones? Not quite as good as fresh, but better than nothing.

Or are the canned ones supposed to have salmonella too? /:O I never pay attention to these things.

BBQ ribs (tried new recipe for bbq sauce and simmered it forever!!!)
Pasta salad
Baked beans (need to get those going so they can cook down too)
Gingered blueberry pie (in the oven now)
Pecan pie (finally got a good recipe that doesn't use corn syrup)
Watermelon Lemonade

Whew! And there are only 3 of us for dinner. *roll eyes* Can y'all tell I'm bored?

Woke up feeling craptastic, so I'm hoping this will motivate me to have energy to make dinner tonight!!

Bruschetta pasta
Salad
Buttermilk biscuits
Fresh fruit with raspberry sorbet

We'll see if that menu changes based on my level of I-don't-give-a-shit-ness!! :D

I've been putting a scoop of raspberry and scoop of lemon sorbet in a glass and making floats with ginger ale. So yummy!

the recipe i used for the pate used turmeric in it though, and i have decided i definitely don't like turmeric.

I had 8 chicken nuggies from the freezer...I didn't feel like grocery shopping again, and all I bought at the market today was this bomb ass salad from the salad bar, yumm, lettuce, spinach, tomatoes, cucumbers, peas, onions, mushrooms, and harboiled egg....So, I guess I don't feel bad about the eight chicken nuggets cause lunch was good.

Small chicken breast grilled and some grilled zuchinni and homemade potato salad.
Followed by a small sliver of both pumpkin roll and apple crisp pie topped with nonfat frozen yogurt.
It was a neighborhood BBQ and I totally let myself eat what I wanted. I've been soo good lately, and I don't want to feel like I have to always deprive myself of foods I love.

K and I just marinated steak in a mixture of Trader Joe's soy-ginger-sesame dressing and chardonnay champagne. I broiled it for just a few minutes on each side and it's still VERY rare. We cut it up in little pieces and tasted some, and it's incredible! You get just a hint of the champagne flavor with the soy and ginger, and it's cooked perfectly - brown on the outside, pink and red in the middle. K just named it Drunken Ginger Steak.

Tonight we're going to put it in a salad with a little bit more of the soy-ginger-sesame dressing and some salad greens, cucumber, and tomato. Later on though, we want to try it in a stir-fry with some veggies and chunks of fresh ginger over brown rice.

What is natural pizza from pizza hut?^^

it's a multigrain crust with organic tomato sauce and they have these special organic toppings for it they call it the "natural pizza". It's really good.

^That's interesting. I've never heard of it before! Looks like they're taking a step in the right direction.

Chilled soba noodle salad on the menu tonight.

Nothing. My appetite has been nil lately (luckily, this is showing up on my tummy). I did have a ton of sashimi for a late lunch. Octopus, albacore, salmon, yellowtail, tuna, and something else that I wasn't sure about... possibly red snapper.

Four little pieces of falafel with this amazing tahini drizzled over it, an apple, and a glass of rose pinot grigio.

I can't decide what I want. Either some greek salad and roasted squash with marinara from Whole Foods, or a salad with a veggie burger from Subway.

Decisions, decisions. I'll probably go for the first option so I can get a peach for dessert while I'm there. Going to Subway for dinner and then to whole foods just for a peach would be too much trouble, lol. Then again...there is a grocery store right across from the subway; I could always run in there for a peach.
