Tonight we ordered Vietnamese and had some friends over. I had stir fried lemon grass chicken on vermicelli (w/ lettuce, carrot, and sprouts) and 1 spring roll. Sorry, I took the picture after I ate about half… I forgot to take one! Now I am off to bed.. I am exhausted- its been a rough day. Night!

So for lunch I decided I needed to have some of the spaghetti squash I made Wednesday- I found this recipe on Green Light Bites. I did everything the same except I omitted the peppers and added the rest of my butter beans (about 1/4 cup) and a bit of Parmesan cheese. They turned out really good. I had Imagine creamy tomato soup on the side and some more plain yogurt to dip! It was a lot of food!

I also had two more cookies for a snack.

I’m hoping some of you can help me out! I’m going out for breakfast on Saturday with a few friends and I am SOO excited. I have been wanting to go to this diner for as long as I knew it existed! The one time I did go it was closed… so anyways the menu is available online and everything looks so good. What would you get? I’m sure I could decide for myself but I thought it would be neat to hear some of opinions!

When I woke up this morning I felt really light headed so I grabbed a small banana to nosh on.

About 45 minutes later I decided to make some breakfast- I felt like toast again but I wanted to do something I hadn’t done in a while… French toast! I made it with 2 slices of sprouted 16 grain bread and made the batter with a combo of ¼ cup egg white + 3 tbsp hemp milk (any milk will do) + ¼ tsp vanilla + cinnamon. I cut my bread into strips (more fun that way!) and dipped both sides into the batter. I then paced the strips on a hot pan with canola oil spray; it didn’t take long at all! I topped it all with 1 tbsp real maple syrup, defrosted raspberries and some almond slivers! I put some plain yogurt on the side and ended up using it as a dip! I also had some green/black chai tea w/ almond milk.

I got hungry a few hours later so I had a gala apple w/ some almond butter.

I started to feel a tad hungry shortly after dinner and bedtime is not or a few hours so I asked Darren to make me a latte (unsweetened w/ skim) with our espresso machine (we got it for Christmas and I still have yet to use it myself!). I also had 4 Margaret’s Artisan Crisps, caramel-apple-almond flavor along with it. They remind me of thin biscotti so I dip them in my coffee! It was a nice way to end the day. Have a great night!
