Yesterday morning, I made up my new favorite smoothie again – Butterfinger! It’s funny, I definitely go through phases. A few months ago, I couldn’t get enough of the Chocolate Cherry Bomb Smoothie, but now all I want is Butterfinger!
If you like butterfingers or toffee or butterscotch…and smoothies, you’ll love this one. 🙂
Mid-morning, I snacked on some dried fruit that I picked up at the Farmer’s Market this past weekend.
Dried kiwi, pineapple, strawberries, cherries, papaya and golden delicious apples.
Lunch had 2 parts:
Salad
Romaine lettuce with dried cranberries, almonds, apple and honey balsamic dressing. This is my favorite salad!
Yogurt
Plain greek yogurt with granola and honey.
Mid-afternoon, I was craving some chocolate milk!
After a 30 minute walk around the neighborhood, Brant and I got started on dinner. It has been awhile since we’ve made a dish from 101cookbooks.com, so we tried one out tonight.
We followed the recipe exactly, except we subbed onions for shallots and added sugar snap peas for 1/2 of the broccoli. We caramelized the onions until sweet.
Mix all of the veggies/nuts/fruits in a bowl.
Then, add the delicious almond butter sauce!
The sauce is by far the best part of the dish…next time, I would make extra!
Served over a bed of millet (cooked in our rice cooker with salt, pepper and olive oil – about 40 minutes).
This recipe was simple, quick and delicious. Can’t get much better than that for a weeknight meal!
There were plenty of leftovers for lunch today, we well!
