A lunch and dinner meal:
Angela's 15 Minute Creamy Avocado Pasta
I used brown rice pasta and I didn't have any basil on hand so I substituted with spinach. For the veggies I used some zucchini, asparagus and yellow bell pepper. It was delish!
For dinner one night I threw together a Roasted Vegetable with Balsamic and Quinoa.
I lined a baking sheet with foil and preheated the oven to 450 degrees. I then got my vegetables ready, which were zucchini, mushrooms and chickpeas. Tossed them with a little extra virgin olive oil, salt, pepper and garlic powder to taste. Placed them on the lined baking sheet and cooked in the 450 degree oven for about 15 minutes.
I always have pre-cooked quinoa on hand, so I just added about 1/3 cup into a bowl and heated up in the microwave for about 30 seconds. Once the veggies were done cooking, I added them to the quinoa and drizzled with balsamic and topped with a little parm.
Yum!
For breakfast this morning I tried out Ashley's Pour, Poke, + Spread Eggs from The Edible Perspective.
Sorry for the terrible lighting in this picture.
I sautéed a small handful of spinach in a pan and sprinkled with salt, pepper and garlic powder to taste. Once the spinach was almost completely wilted, I added the egg and followed Ashley's instructions on her recipe.
It turned out delicious! It is now my new favorite way to cook eggs. Super easy and quick.
The other night, Monday to be exact, I popped open a bottle of Ryhan Estates Sparkling Almond Wine. It had been sitting in the outside fridge for some time so I figured I'd open it up and drink it. Hehehe.
It was perfect for a warm summer night. It hit the spot!
That's all for now! I'll leave you with a couple pictures :)
Do you see the heart?? |
Hope everyone has a fantastic Wednesday!
