Hey MFP'ers!


Happy almost Friday!!! So here's the scoop....I'm home alone tonight while the hubby is at a school function and I forgot to plan to make dinner :O. Shocking...I know!!! I am so excited that I got a crock pot as a wedding gift...I couldn't wait to use it. I went to the store yesterday and bought a bunch of groceries to use on my new crock pot....exciting...I know!!!! Turns out while I was at school today I realized i forgot to put things in the crock pot to cook while I was at work...boo! So I just got home and I'm just curious at what you guys are doing for dinner? Please feel free to share pics :))


Happy Counting!!!

    My go-to when my dh isn't home (or for lunch) is two small yellow corn tortillas topped with oven roasted deli turkey and mozzarella cheese. Pop it in the microwave for 1 minute. Add 1/4 of avocado to the both of them and top with salsa. Delish!!

    Salmon patties with seasoned mixed greens and mac and cheese! I didn't take anything out this morning either. Canned salmon is a great pantry mainstay! Best wishes in your journey.

    It is a little boring, but I made grilled chicken, quinoa, and steamed veggies. Dessert was greek yogurt and fresh strawberries. I made enough to have extra to take for lunch at work tomorrow.

    Yeah I used 2 tbsp of eevo, 2 tbsp of balsamic vinager, 1/2 tsp of salt, 1/4 tsp of black pepper, 1 tbsp of rosemary herb, mix all that together and I used skinless, boneless chicken breast and used mixture to coat chicken and veggies. Pretty much you can use any veggies you want and roast in oven at 400 degrees for 20 minutes then flip your veggies and roast for another 20 minutes, use a jeely roll p-an or a baking dish with at least a 2 inch lip. Hope you enjoy ! I used 4 skinless boneless chicken breat but it is enough to cover at least 6.
