Not the full story

Lunch

FacebookTweetPin
16 Mar

The pictures of my eats today definitely don’t show the full story. I had this “third grade lunch” of PB&J, carrots and yogurt. But – I added hummus to the carrots and chia seeds & cereal to the yogurt too! IMG_6297

Then, I went for a long walk to enjoy this amazing weather we’re having 🙂 It makes me happy.

When I got back I felt hungry and grabbed a handful of PB pretzels with extra PB plus a bag of popcorn. No pic = not the full story of eats 🙁

Truthfully, that happens a lot around here. I have a bad habit if grabbing handfuls of cereal, chips or trail mix that never get documented on the blog. It’s not that big of a deal – but they really do add up (especially with my HUGE hands!).

Then, I ate cottage cheese with pineapple and cereal x2. I love this snack, but always forget to buy cottage cheese at the store! I know this picture isn’t that appetizing. Hey, they can’t all be winners folks…IMG_6298

I have no idea what to make for dinner. I want to use up some pantry items I already have on hand like – lentils, rice and tomatoes. We’ll see what it becomes in a bit.

What’s for Dinner? If you don’t know what to make for dinner, but know which ingredients you want to use check out:  Recipe Matcher or Recipe Key.

On those sites you plug in the ingredient(s) you want to use, then it suggests recipes! Genius!! I hate when recipes call for fancy stuff I don’t have on hand. This is a great way to use what you have without spending extra money too 🙂

    and i’m guilty of those handfuls too. we should start a club.

    I have enormous man hands, so a handful here and there can be very dangerous.
    I love pineapple and cottage cheese!

    It’s probably too late, but I’ve made this lentil and rice casserole before and it’s pretty good. You just have to add more seasonings, in my opinion. I also like to add sauteed mushrooms.

      Thanks! It actually isn’t too late, but I really want to throw some stewed tomatoes in there too.

    That yogurt looks good! How was it?

    I have such a hard time remembering to photograph everything! It makes me crazy.

    that is a great idea considering I don’t really own many spices or anything fancy.

    hows that yogurt? i have so many of those damn yoplaits in my fridge but you basically spoiled my desire for them last night. thanks a lot!

    P.s. Did you ever try those chili covered mangoes I recommended?

      No, I still haven’t tried them because they remind me of the chili candy stuff my brother used to get from the ice cream man. I always thought it was so gross…
