It’s almost 5!!! Wahoo! And guess what? I saw a FOX on my walk today!?! He was so cute, and I named him Skippy. 🙂 I’m weird, I know!
I’m telling you, this day drug onnnnnnnnnn…and onnnnnnnnnnnnn…and onnnnnnnnnn. I kept glancing at the clock and it would only be 5 min later than the last time. Although I’m thankful that things are slowing down a bit, but if the days would inch by a tad faster I wouldn’t mind 🙂
Lunch today was this soup:
And I had some big plans for these wraps:
But, as all health and food bloggers should understand, I had some chocolate first 🙂
Here’s my lunch all put together: the soup mixed with about 1 cup of packed fresh spinach (bring on the fiber!), about a cup or so of baby carrots, and one of the wraps that I toasted up in the toaster oven with low-fat mozzarella and a little Italian salad dressing:
Now time for some close-ups:
Overall it was a good and very filling lunch. I gotta be honest though: I was NOT a fan of the soup! I ate all of the beans and chicken and spinach and left the tasteless broth…blech! Nate let me have the very last of the pasta from the other night, so I ate that, about 1/2 a cup total, which was mostly radicchio and leeks.
As I said before, this afternoon went by very slowly, so I was REALLY excited when I got to go on my walk. Bad news is my knee started hurting again, but I was so glad to get out that I didn’t care at all. It was chilly, but not too bad, and I was able to walk full speed since the sidewalks were dry. Viva la exercise!
Upon my return it was another 3-minute cookie with my last packet of Amazing Grass. So warm, gooey, and delish! Even the guys at work were wondering what smelled like fresh-baked cookies!
I’m pretty excited about dinner tonight…I’m making Italian turkey/artichoke/spinach paninis with Chelsea’s Roasted Tomato Soup and either spinach salad or mac ‘n’ cheese. I can’t decide whether it’s going to be a healthful evening or if I’m going to have a little indulgence 😉
If you had to pick any sandwich in the world to say you love the best, what would it be? If you can find it somewhere, where do you get it? I know mine is a muffaletta from Central Grocery in New Orleans…HOLY YUM!!!
Y’all have a fabulous evening 🙂
I like the tomato and mozarella sandwich from Panera….mmmm mmmm mmmm…It’s like a grilled cheese but with better bread, fancier cheese and some added sweetness from the tomatoes!!
Hmm. Overall I’d say french dips are my favorite sandwich of all time.
Although, a California club from Jason’s Deli is VERY tasty!
I used to really love this sandwich from Bruegers Bagels and it has been so long since I have had it that I can’t even remember the name! But it was loaded with veggies, sweet red peppers and muenster cheese.
Oh gosh what a question! I have a top 3 I just came up with but #1 is an egg and cheese from the deli in my college town.
There is a great little Italian place here that makes a fabulous panini with fresh moz. medalions, pesto, basil & roasted red peppers. It is Ah.mazing!!! Grilled to perfection and melty…yum.
But, a good old peanut butter & jam (no jelly for me thanks) will always hit the spot too!
Oh I hope you like the soup!!!! I too love muffulettas but there’s the deli in my hometown that makes the best roast beef, avocado, and cheese sandwich toasted. It’s to die for!
Your dinner sounds amazing girl!
And my favorite sandwich.. toss up between a simple grilled cheese or a pb & j.. i’m simple.. what can i say?
OMG kindred spirits. I dream about muffulettas from central market!!!
