Food for Thought
Or, more specifically some thoughts and some food! There’s a couple things that are getting a little old around here… This: And this: Don’t get me wrong… the PT is helping me tremendously. And pool running is… great… in its own way. Let’s just say that I would prefer it if my life doesn’t go on this way indefinitely. Know what I mean? In other news, the Dinner Dilemma continues. Tonight was Taco Tuesday once again, and I tried something new. The “meaty” looking stuff is tofu, which I tossed with a seasoned sauce and then baked- it came out chewy, crispy and delicious! The recipe was from this website. Molly Patrick of “Clean Food, Dirty Girl” gives weekly menus, a shopping list, and step-by-step meal prep for the week, and the meals sound DELICIOUS. I feel a little bad admitting that I made this tofu because this is a pay service, and I didn’t pay for it. One of my co-workers has been doing this for months now, and comes in raving every day about the delicious dinners she’s been eating. She gave me the recipe for the tofu in the hopes that it would convince me to subscribe to the service myself. I’m seriously considering it! If I were making her whole meal it would have included jerk black beans and a fancier mango salsa (not the simple one I threw together.). You prep everything on Sunday, and then have all the components you need to make a delicious dinner every night. To be honest, I probably won’t start this over the summer. There’s too much else going on. But in the fall, when my son is off to college (which means one less person to feed and one less set of opinions to take into consideration, food-wise) I’m thinking it could be just what I need. Anyone tried doing a weekly meal prep? How did that work out? What’s your favorite easy dinner? – Mine is chickpea pasta, broccoli and marinara sauce from a jar!
