Whats for Dinner?

[XMcShiftersonX]

Trying to cook tempeh for the first time tonight!

If you haven't tried it yet, I would recommend Seitan... It's the bees knees of fake meat!

4 course dinner:
(2) swedish fish
(1) lean cuisine pizza (just cheese), with a bunch of 1% fat cheddar added to it
(1) Chobani 0% plain yogurt
and desert...

1 scoop plain soy protein powder, 1 Tbsp cocoa powder, 4 packets of stevia, some soy milk, and psyllium powder = chocolate protein mush. <3

I've got some bad habits. I ride at least 20 miles most days, so I have gotten into eating total crap. My bunnies eat better than I do.

BTW for lunch today I had vanilla ice cream and carrot cake. Lots of both.

It was the monthly birthday celebration at work, and this is one of only two months of the year when we get carrot cake -- because I have seniority for June birthdays so it's my choice and I love carrot cake. (November is the other month, when our VP requests it.)

I scored some leftover cake which I will enjoy over the weekend.

For dinner last night I had a crunchy peanut butter Cliff Bar and a large glass of skim milk. This was before my 20 mile bike ride, when I got home I had a nice glass of low-fat chocolate milk.

This morning I had a banana and milk for breakfast. There may be another Cliff bar in my future for lunch today...

I simply HAVE to do some cooking! I usually bake 4-5 boneless/skinless chicken breasts in advance and keep fresh/frozen veggies on hand so it doesn't take very long to prepare dinner but my schedule has changed this week. I try to keep it simple during the week to save time. More riding = less time to cook, so have to work this out. I like Cliff Bars, but I can't LIVE on them

Now, that ice cream and carrot cake sounds pretty wonderful

I typically try to make two meals over the weekend that will last us through the week. This week it was pork loin with a chipotle spice rub, green beans and sweet potatoes and lentil soup. We finished the pork off last night (it was delish cold) and still have a fair amount of the soup left.

Crab quiche and a mixed green and tomato salad. Crabs were from the Gulf (pre-oil slick) and the tomatos were locally grown "Creole" variety.

I would say that's a bad habit... ONLY 2 swedish fish???? I finish off a couple of those single serving sized bags any time I have swedish fish!!!

I recently found a yummy Thai Chicken Curry recipe in the AIS (aust institute of sport) cookbook & it's ooooooo sooo delicious. Since my dear's away(eating yummy German and then Chinese foods), i'm going to make it a teeny smidgen bit hotter and ensure I add the yoghurt!

It's no fun cooking for only me for three weeks.

hmmm, another Cliff bar for dinner last night... I was at the Bloomington, Indiana RAAM time stop and was the only one there as no one was really expected for a few hours (the regulars were taking the chance to go and sleep). I figured the Cliff bar was a better choice over anything from Fazolis or Burger King!

Better food today

My workstudy student was eating this amazing-smelling dish at lunch and I had to have the recipe. I made it last night. It is very easy to make.

1 can chick peas (drained, rinsed)
1 clove garlic
1/2 onion
1 cup diced peppers of all colors
basil, rosemary, salt & pepper

Sautee garlic and peppers in 1 tbsp olive oil, add remaining ingredients and sautee about 3 minutes. Place in bowl and toss with another tbsp olive oil.

Can serve hot or cold.

We had this with lettuce from the garden and tortellini and my daughter baked a loaf of french bread. Divine!

Indigoiis - I make something similar to that and serve it over quinoa. It really is great!

We're having leftover green garlic and cheddar scones today. With roasted radishes, maybe?

Is it hard to make? I would love a good recipe for this. I usually buy seasoning in a jar

I don't know what my problem is, but I've really been craving salad--and I'm NOT a salad person. I bought a bunch of greens. Washed them, chopped them, and I've been eating them like a craved rabbit. With walnuts, fresh fruit, goat cheese, and whatever else I feel like at the moment. I just can't get enough salad.

LImewave, i can scan the page & send you the recipe if you'd like. It's easy peasy!
