    Last night...not typical. My husband and I ran 9 miles with our training group, then came home and hit the Lean Cuisine, supplemented by bananas and some kind of vanilla protein drink.

    Tonight...not typical, either. We're going out for barbecue. I'm having a half rack of ribs, cole slaw, and green beans cooked with bacon.

    Tomorrow night, though, I'll actually cook. Planning on chicken breast, asparagus, and baked sweet potato.

    Last night I had tuna cakes (tuna + breadcrumbs + egg + grill them) and some smashed/broiled red potatoes (boil them until almost done, smash them on cookie sheet, bit of oil, seasoning, then broil to get the tops/edges crispy).

    It was supposed to be tacos with homemade chilli, homemade guacamole and sour cream. But when I took the chilli out the microwave I realised I had defrosted bolognaise.....so it was bolognaise with tacos and guacamole.

    Left over turkey from easter, chopped up and put in a salad with:

    2 leaves of green leaf lettuce,
    1 leaf of iceberg
    1/2 red bell pepper
    100g zuchini (i have no idea how to spell that)
    30g shredded havarti cheese, shredded
    1/2 hot house tomato
    3 tbsp roasted red pepper with parmesan dressing

    ....this salad made me love salads again, seriously, im a meat and potatoes kind of guy, but this was freaking tasty

    Stealing this... adding some turkey breast got me hooked on salad again. Meat and potatoes guy as well.

    Last night: Broccoli Turkey Casserole - http://www.tasteofhome.com/Recipes/Broccoli-Turkey-Casserole
    Tonight: Rachael Ray's Buffalo Chicken Chili - http://www.rachaelrayshow.com/food/recipes/buffalo-chicken-chili
    This weekend: Loaded Potato and Buffalo Chicken Casserile - http://bestlife4moms.weebly.com/5/post/2012/05/loaded-potato-buffalo-chicken-casserole.html

    Soooo much sodium in the Brocoli Turkey Casserole, so next time will make my own cream of mushroom and cream of chicken soups.

    Hmmm, I wonder how it would work out if I freeze 10-ounce batches of these soups. Anyone tried it?

    Lately I've been doing this lazy thing where i put baked chicken breast chopped up in a bowl with a bit of mayo, crumbled up goat cheese and a chopped up avocado. I mix it all up and eat it with a spoon.

    It's creamy and tasty and filling and takes about 2 min to put together (which is important when you get home at 7:30pm).

    Last night i "splurged" and had half a cheese bun with it *gasp*

    I will swap. That sounds like a really nice dinner and right up my sweet tooth alley.

    It was delicious. I eat pretty much the same thing every day. Lately I've been eating crepes, oatmeal, peanut butter, seaweed, ice cream, and some buttered flatbread with cinnamon and splenda every night. The only things that change will be what fruit or other little snack I'm in the mood for.

    I had a baked sweet potato and tilapia for dinner tonight. i baked the tilapia with balsamic vinegar, garlic, and parsley. I usually use lemon juice instead of balsamic but I tried something new. Bad idea, it wasn't as good but I still ate it.

    I will try that one evening, I tend to get caught up in eating vegetables and protein etc etc for dinner every night. A change would be nice. Though it would have to be on a cardio day I think, lol.
