Lunch today was delicious! I had a salad with cucumber, 1/2 serving of turkey pepperonis, 1 oz of pepper jack cheese, honey lemon vinaigrette, orange bell pepper, and 1 serving of Triscuits.
Before and after I cleaned house, I had some snacks
A Clif Kid Twisted Fruit Strawberry! This thing was awesome, I’ll definitely be buying this flavor again!
Then I had a yogurt bowl with 1/2 cup non fat plain yogurt, 1 serving canned pineapple, and 1/2 serving Flavor One Original Bran cereal.
Dinner was late, but worth the wait and was very similar in color all around. I had 4 oz salmon seasoned with lemon pepper and salt and baked, 2 oz (dry) of whole wheat rotini with butter spray and parmesan, and some sauteed orange bell pepper!
This was my first time having whole wheat pasta (at least that I can consciously recall) and I must say I am really impressed. I’d heard it had a nutty flavor, but I didn’t notice any and I thought it tasted much like regular pasta, but more filling. I’m sold, it’s whole wheat pasta for this household from now on!
Update
I threw together a dessert-y mess. I used 1 serving of cinnamon graham sticks, 1 bar of milk chocolate, and 1 Tbs. of caramel. I microwaved it for about 20 seconds and it was all warm and melty and I used the graham sticks for dipping. It was messy kind of like a mixture of a s’more and a chocolate caramel bar. Definitely drool worthy!
I’ve got some fun plans for tomorrow and for the weekend! Tyler, my dad, and I are going kayaking on Sunday! We’re meeting my dad for lunch (possibly church too, I’ll see if I can convince Tyler or not), then driving an hour to the White River to kayak from about 1pm to 6pm. Then we’ll do dinner afterwards in Montague, MI. I’m super excited. We used to take family canoe trips when I was little on the Current River in MO, and I always loved them. I never minding tipping in the canoe, at least not when I got older. I have tons of canoeing memories with my family, and I can’t wait to make some with Tyler! Let’s hope the weather is good Sunday!
And tomorrow, I may be going for a bike ride with my dad! Sometimes its really nice not having a full time job, might as well enjoy it while I can right!
