Welcome to week 2!!!
Remember that time I was excited to try new recipes and listed what I wanted to get to try them out? Yeah, that'll have to be next week. Costco has been calling my name so my roommate Alyssa and I did the fastest and cheapest Costco run of all time. I came out of it with hearts of romaine (the butter lettuce was calling me but I need to make a salad for church on Sunday and romaine was cheaper), a package of haricots verts (fancy pants French green beans), a big old tub of yellow baby tomatoes, and a 5 lb. bag of frozen asparagus.
Breakfast was a burger from last night. I would like 5 more now please. Sadly I'm all out of those delicious homegrown tomatoes and it was so tempting to grab a bottle of ketchup and squeeze it all over. Since I didn't though I was able to enjoy the delicate taste of the lettuce leaves and the flavor of the red meat that I don't eat very often. I had a cup of unsweetened cinnamon applesauce just before I headed out the door.
For lunch I fried up some eggs and sauteed garlic and spinach. It was not my most delicious meal but it held me over. The kids corndogs were screaming at me again "Eat me Elle!! Bite into my deep fried cornmeal and squishy so called meat core!" Oh pinterest was also an evil thing today. There are SO many tasty little pieces of evil floating around on there.
Dinner was so good! Thinly sliced pork chops breaded with coconut flour and pan fried in coconut oil then simmered in chicken broth and slices of fresh lemon. For my main vegetable I blanched a big fat handful of haricots verts and did the lazy girl version of baking a small potato in the microwave. Post dinner I had a coconut date roll. I'm full, happy and back to space, the final frontier!
