I felt much better today! Thanks for all the well wishes! I was still a bit dizzy this morning, so I decided to ditch the gym for some outdoor activity later.
I was starving as soon as I woke up and couldn’t wait to make breakfast. Eggs sounded good, so I whipped up and open-faced omelette with ham, spinach and Cabot’s 75% reduced fat cheddar…
Most of the morning was spent catching up on all the things I couldn’t do yesterday (blogging, cleaning, grocery shopping). I finally got around to lunch quite late because breakfast had been such a filling meal. I decided to use up some leftover fridge items for lunch – chickpeas and butternut squash. Hmmm…an interesting combo, right?! I thought it might be good with some whole wheat couscous and grated parmesan cheese. It was a good call!
When the daughters got home from school, I decided it was too nice a day to stay inside. It was beautiful and close to 70 degrees! Unfortunately, big daughter had too much homework to finish, but little daughter and I got to go for a nice 30 minute walk around the neighborhood. I would have loved to walk longer, but little daughter wasn’t having it! But, we had a great time soaking up some vitamin D anyway!
For dinner, I took advantage of the beautiful weather to bring back a bit of summer with burgers on the grill. Regular ones for the family and a Gardenburger Portabella Veggie Burger for me. I snazzed up my burger with a topping made with my favorite goat cheese…
Chavrie goat cheese is the best! It is mild and really creamy. For my topping, I mixed 2 tbsp. of Chavrie with 1 tbsp. of sundried tomatoes (in oil). I spread it on the veggie burger and put it on and Ezekiel Sesame Hamburger Bun…
I went with shoestring fries and a nice green salad on the side…
Mmmm…I taste summer!!!
I ended the night with the new Cooking Light…
Ah, so many great recipes…so little time :)
Enjoy your day, everyone!
