D: It's Restaurant Week, so we went to the Blue Room in Cambridge. You get a 3 course dinner for a fixed price. Except for the dessert, I did fine. Had a shaved veggie salad for my first, grilled Arctic Char on a bed of parsnip which looked like a potato pancake, and an upside down apple crumb cake with vanilla ice cream. The portions were smaller, which means they were normal. I could have done without the dessert and I left most of the cake part.
And I had 2 two glasses of rose wine. Feeling very spring-like.

HERE is the recipe for the velvety squash - and it is VERY good. Any winter squash or even sweet potatoes will do - I chose to use kobacha squash. I really like them and I can cut them far easier than butternut squash.

My weekend eating was nuts. Well, not actual nuts! I did not eat anything that would be considered 'off plan' but my eating wasn't good. Except for a good breakfast each day, I hardly ate normal meals. I snacked a lot. I also biked on Saturday (yay!).
Today things will be more back to normal on the food front (I hope!)
B: eggs with mixed greens, bacon and scallions in them, sausage patty, few pieces of roasted sweet potato
S: banana with almond butter
L: chicken apple sausage, steamed mixed veggies with olive oil and seasonings, apple slices
S: (if needed) hard boiled eggs
D: salmon, asparagus, green salad, blueberries
Catrin - I've made that recipe before (Velvety Squash) but I found it was WAY too garlic-y for me. I probably should have been smarter and recognized that when she said a head of garlic, she didn't mean a head of home grown garlic which is much stronger than most store-bought stuff. I should try it again and cut it in half, at least.
I like garlic :D I only made a small squash so I cut the garlic in half. I didn't have pecans so I used what nuts I had. Very tasty and a different way to make squash and to get some good carbs into my diet.
