What are you eating/doing today? (Sunday)

Well, I've started my day with cleaning - and feel good about it to boot. This place has become a wee bit of a sty since I've been working so many hours and Joe has started a new contracting job. Bleah. And the cat does NOTHING all day to assist, damn him.

Rest of the day will be laundry, sorting, and such. Oh, and dishes and then messing up the dishes with cooking. lol

B - coffee with 2 oz milk x several, protein shake
S - 1 small piece of toast with peanut butter and a small drizzle of agave sryup (yum!)
L - BBQ burger from Kirkland, no bun, all the good fixin's
S - iced apple juice, cinnamon syrup in my ice shaver
D - roast beef, gravy, smashed garlic potatoes, mushrooms, onions and a few sprigs of asparagus

Have a sunny Sunday!

No coffee for me today.  Am doing an experiment to see if coffee is causing heartburn or if it's the meds.  I have both first thing in the morning and end up with heartburn an hour or so later.  I even tried decaf and still got it so today it's plain old water and nothing else.  I will be devestated if it's my coffee causing it.   Just doing laundry, making some asian turkey soup, making a lasagna for the freezer and packing my bag for Tuesday morning.  I can't warm up today so your afternoon snack is making me shiver.

B - 2 scrambled eggs with some swiss cheese in them, about 1 oz

L - bowl of asian turkey soup

S - ryvita, liverwurst and green grapes

D - sweet and sour pork with pineapple, grilled asparagus

Oh my gosh, good luck with the no coffee thing.  I'll be thinking of you.

 Good morning everyone! Karen my dogs must have gone to the same school as your cat, they do jack **** around here too.

BB- coffee x2

B- protein shake

L- 1/2 sausage in a multi grain bun ( dogs share other half)

S- YUMMY yogurt bar 

D- roast beef w carrots and 3 baby potatoes

Try my Pasta e Fagioli recipe, minus the pasta and whiz it up - dislish!

10 slices pancetta or bacon, chopped up (I like the hot pancetta myself)
2 onions, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 stalks celery, chopped
2 carrots, chopped
1 tsp. dried basil
1 tsp. oregano
1/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp. pepper
1 can white kidney beans, drained and rinsed
4 cups chicken broth
1 large can diced tomatoes
1 bay leaf
3/4 cup pasta (something tiny is nice, like little tiny bowties)
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/4 cup tomato paste
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese

In skillet, fry pancetta/bacon over medium-high heat until crisp; transfer to slow cooker.

Drain fat from skillet. Fry onions, garlic, celery, carrots, basil, oregano, salt and pepper over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened, about 5 minutes. Scrape into slow cooker.

Mash 1 cup (250 mL) of the beans; add to slow cooker along with remaining beans. Add broth, tomatoes and bay leaf; cover and cook on low for 4 hours or until vegetables are tender.

In pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta until tender but firm, about 8 minutes. Drain and add to slow cooker.

Add parsley and tomato paste; cover and cook on high for 10 minutes or until hot. Discard bay leaf. Sprinkle each serving with Parmesan cheese.
