No, I did not zest these vegetables. But I might try. I am obsessed with zest. Do you understand what lemon zest does to pasta? It’s remarkable, really. I’ve had this little zester for a few years, but never used it until recently. I kind of thought it was broken. But check out the product [...]

Seriously, did I eat eight servings in two days?
Apparently, according to Yorgo’s.
But I couldn’t help it. This stuff is so good. And healthy. Especially when eaten in mass quantities with my cucumbers.
Anyway, I ate the last of it while I was waiting for my fake bacon to cook for my BLT sandwich that I had [...]

I have about 42 of Heidi Swanson’s recipes bookmarked, but for some reason I always forget about them when I’m trying to figure out something to cook. Tonight, I finally made her Garlic Soba Noodles and it was SO. GOOD.
But the best part wasn’t the soba noodles. It was the tofu. I usually just make [...]

We went and got some groceries when Chris got home from work, thank god, and I made taco salads:
It looks huge, I know. That’s because it is. I ate it all. It has a black bean/cumin/chili powder/cayenne mixture, lots of lettuce, bell peppers, corn, cheddar cheese, avocado, tomatoes, red onions, salsa, lime juice and Trader [...]

I think I figured this little issue out. Or at least a very nice man named Andrew in support did. Apparently I have to start naming my pictures.
Sigh. It’s a whole additional step that I’m just not that interested in taking on, but I guess I’ll manage.
The first picture I have for you tonight is [...]

We were going to have tacos for dinner, but the shells Chris bought have partially hydrogenated vegetable oil in them and then they ended up being stale anyway. Clearly, it was God’s way of sparing us from a death by trans fats.
So we had taco salads:
Why yes, I do eat out of Gladware.
Excuse me. I [...]

I used this recipe to make a pesto pasta salad with shrimp and sun-dried tomatoes:
I know. Don’t even say it. It looks totally gross. It didn’t look like this in person. Or, maybe I was just really hungry. Tasted good, though. That pesto is my new best friend.
Also had an ice cream sandwich:
And this afternoon, [...]

Yesterday Chris and I were talking about spinning and I was telling him about the class I go to on Wednesdays and how the instructor is hard but she talks a little too much and her “talking” is what others might call “preaching” and sometimes the music sounds a little gospely and I wonder if [...]

Camera batteries died again and I’m sure you won’t be surprised to learn that I have yet to buy rechargeables. Instead, I think I may just buy a couple shares of Duracell.
Anyway, here’s the recap:
This was my afternoon snack - yogurt, strawberry jelly, a single pretzel.
Whole wheat spaghetti with spinach, mozzarella and checca sauce, which [...]

I over processed. Got a little excited, I guess, and ended up with pureed falafel. I used this recipe, which I just now realized clearly says “pulse 8 to 10 times until finely chopped.” Yeah…I let that shit go for probably two minutes straight.
Oh well. I made falafel pancakes, basically, and we still ate them. [...]
