Breakfast: Blueberry Buckwheat Pancakes and Facon Bacon
I know what you're thinking...again? Well, I had leftovers and did not want them to go to waste. Plus, the pancakes and "bacon" were really good anyway. Don't forget it's only me in the house...and I am not good at cutting recipes down to 1-2 servings...it's a metric thing!
DAY 2
Lunch: Couscous Confetti Salad and Carrot and Red Pepper Soup
What? Aren't you tired of that stuff, you ask? Heck no! Some of the best food I have ever made...not to mention, you guessed it, I had leftovers from yesterday! And I neglected to mention this in my first post, but the Carrot and Red Pepper Soup is super yummy! It is thick and rich, but not super-filling since it is mostly made of carrots and roasted red peppers. You need to make this soup...and the couscous, of course!
DAY 2Dinner: Spinach Salad with Orange Sesame Dressing
This was actually supposed to be lunch, but I made it my dinner since I ate yesterday's lunch again. This colorful salad is super low-cal and high in Beta Carotene, with Vitamin C and calcium.
I also added some shredded red cabbage since I had some left over from the couscous dish. And believe it or not, there is spinach under all those fruits and veggies! This is the first time I ever toasted sesame seeds, and they smelled so good baking in the oven! This salad was tasty and filling, but next time I would make it a little smaller and incorporate a tofu or tempeh topping in order to add some protein and substance. Overall pretty good though.
DAY 2
Snack: Fantastic Fruit Smoothie
Yes, the same snack as yesterday because it was too good to pass up! Plus, I figured it would not be too bad for me since I just had a salad for dinner...see you tomorrow!
