Sloppy Seconds

28 Aug

I had leftovers for dinner – I like them, but I thought Sloppy Seconds was a more fun title 🙂

Leftovers are so great – you don’t have to cook, but you still get all the deliciousness of a home cooked meal. I had the Peanut Noodles from the other night – those are chickpeas (the first time I made it I topped with peanuts, but chickpeas were inside the dish).

Dessert! These were a little stale, but still tasty 🙂DSCN1198Before I left work I had a kiwi anda  serving of TJ’s Peanut Butter Pretzels 🙂 DSCN1192DSCN1193

While packing lunches for tomorrow (see, I am responsible) I ate a bunch of random trail mix and bites of other stuff.

So, I have one habit broken – eating when I get home. I wait 30 minutes before eating anything. It works for me 🙂

Now I have to figure out a way to break the habit of eating after dinner. I am snacky and out of control. I’m brainstorming on this right now!

DSCN0068Ben and I just bought a bunch of furniture from strangers on Craigslist. If you remember we moved to CA with only what we could fit in the truck – which didn’t add up to much more than clothes! Now I have to go help him bring this stuff inside – fantastic. I hate moving big heavy things.

    Peanut noodles beg to be leftovers in my opinion. I swear the peanut flavor seeps into the noodles the longer it sits

    I love having leftovers..and they often taste better the next day!

    I have a lot of trouble with not eating after dinner. A big part of it is that it is a habit. I need to break it and eat those foods earlier int he day when my body really needs it!

    I have been looking for a desk on Craigslist. I have to say I am a lil wierded out about picking up furniture from strangers. But, I’ll get over it as long as I don’t go alone 🙂

    About not eating after dinner…how about brushing your teeth right after? And then using some mouthwash shortly after? That way the minty flavor will stay with you longer, deterring any munching. And if you honestly get hungry before bed, then you know to maybe eat a little more at dinner. Just a suggestion!

    Leftovers are great – I like how much time they save, and prep and dishes and… yeah.. leftovers are good.

    Leftovers are AMAZING! I like knowing what’s in it because it’s home made ut the convenience of store bought. 🙂

    BTW congrats on the furniture. I find you so brave to have moved with so little.
