I have guacamole that’s on it’s last leg so I knew I had to make something Mexican for dinner tonight. I made myself an unexciting taco salad…
“Put some hot sauce on my taco salad baby…” (sing it!)
I made Ben Chicken and Salsa Pasta. This is not meatless, but you could replace the chicken with tofu or beans.
I used a can of white meat chicken and heated it up with onions, garlic and a generous pouring of salsa and taco seasoning. I added a few handfuls of spinach to “sneak” in some veggies.
Then, I cooked whole wheat pasta.
I threw it together with a huge handful of cheese. Serve with guacamole 🙂 He loved it!
I found this Soy Joy bar on clearance at Target and scooped it right up. I actually describe these bars as “a dry cookie”. But for some reason I really like them! Ben and I shared this at dinner time. 
This afternoon I was babysitting and the girls always have a snack first thing after school. Today they decided on PB&J with pretzels.
They have that PB that’s already mixed with J – in this case it was Peanut Butter and Honey. It’s the weirdest thing because I was just telling Ben that my mom used to buy this stuff when we went camping in Yosemite or Sequoia (so she didn’t have to bring 2 jars of stuff).
Added bonus: I’ve never had PB and Honey!
I had a few pretzels with the goods plus a yogurt. 
Oddly, this snack didn’t completely make my blood sugar crazy. I think it’s because I ate it with the yogurt and the protein helped.
Plus – I had a lot of protein and healthy fats today. I noticed a big difference in how I felt versus the sugar craziness of yesterday. Noted.
Anyone else doing Meatless Mondays??

Your salad looks delicious – as do those pretzels! I love pretzels and can never stop at just a couple. Though I’ve never tried them with PB and honey before!
I actually go meatless a LOT lately and have set up a challenge to be completely meatless in May. It’ll be interesting because my husband and I go to my parents for the May Long weekend here in Canada and they’re not the healthiest eaters AND there’s always LOTS of meat and very few veggies. I may have to prepare some salads for that weekend and bring a ton of veggies for snacking.
I guess you would say I did Meatless Monday unintentionally yesterday … I didn’t take out any meat, but really wanted a spicy soup, so I sauteed a ton of veggies, added some no-chicken chicken broth, and some whole wheat vermicelli noodles. It was delicious!
Ha, so many peeps did meatless Mondays unintentionally!
I do meatless Monday! (and every day that ends in Y!- unless fish counts? but I didn’t have any fish yesterday :))

glad you liked that soyjoy bar! it’ been a few years since i tried them and hated them! they tasted like cardboard! maybe they’ve improved their recipe since then~
No, I think I might just like cardboard?
I did meatless Monday today, although not intentionally. I do a lot of meatless Tuesday, Wednesdays, and Thursdays too. When my fiance is out of town, I rarely eat meat unless it’s a lunch is brought in at work. Or, if someone orders chicken nachos at a happy hour. 🙂
i did today, unintentionally! that pasta looks great
pb and honey … yummm. Yeah I agree with the protein, it helps tide ya over : )
I know a lot of people don’t really like soyjoy bars, but all the flavors I have tried have been pretty good. Definitely not the best bar I’ve ever eaten, but not bad.
Every day is meatless for me 😉 But seriously, I think it’s really cool that Meatless Mondays are becoming so popular! LOVE IT. Your taco salad looks divine!
My husband thinks a huge handful of cheese makes everything better. Can’t convince him to do meatless mondays so here we call it Mama’s meatless Mondays
When I have less sugar, my body seems so much more balanced- I think it’s telling me something 🙂
Today was the first time in a while I’ve done the meatless monday thing. I don’t know if it counts, though, I wasn’t really trying
