Eating Well(ish)

It’s that time of week again where I recap what I ate (mostly dinners) this week. I’m getting to a point now where I’m really tired of cooking for myself and can’t wait for Minh to be home. Less than a week until I see him in PUERTO RICO!!!

Sunday BRUNCH – fried eggs, toast with avocado, baby plum tomatoes

Sunday DINNER – chicken and veggies ready for the oven

Sunday DINNER – roasted chicken leg and vegetables

Monday DINNER – mixed green salad, roasted veggies and chicken

Tuesday DINNER – quinoa cake with eggs fried in red bell pepper, baby plum tomatoes, avocado

Wednesday DINNER – Stuffed (with quinoa, roasted chicken and veggies) green pepper

Wednesday DINNER – stuffed green peppers in the oven

Thurday DINNER – Thai Takeout : Shrimp Pad Thai, Appetizers

Friday BREAKFAST – homemade chia pudding, Greek yogurt, freeze dried blueberries, fresh strawberries

Friday DINNER – cauliflower, broccolo and potato cheesy bake

Nothing special about the meals, but I did want to say something about the chia pudding.I got the recipe from a new blog I’ve started following – Domesticate Me. With the only exception of cutting the recipe in half, I followed it exactly just to see how it would turn out. I used all almond milk instead of the optional Greek yogurt 50/50, and it turned out runnier than I was expecting. It was still good, but not sure if I would call it “pudding” – it could have been a drink, like a thick milkshake. So, I added the Greek yogurt when I actually ate it, which overwhelmed the flavors of the chia pudding. Next time, definitely going with 50% almond milk and 50% Greek yogurt.
