WIAW 29
We’ve finally had a couple of lovely days – warm and sunny, but not hot, a pause in the storms – and I’ve been feeling a lot better this week. I even walked the mile round trip down to the CSA yesterday myself – I’ve been just sending Rich…
On the other hand, my attention to what I ate seems to have been divided – I only took pictures of parts of my meals…
OK – morning – I’m eating the granola most mornings… sometimes with milk, sometimes with yogurt, sometimes with a protein shake so I can just do that…. Sunday I had it with just milk and more blueberries (and recycled the shot from the week before…) and then I had cheesy eggs for a second course.
For lunch – salad with my homemade dressing. Chicken and chick peas over greens, scallions, carrots, cucumber, and zucchini (most of which you can’t see in that picture!) I was actually out of rice cakes – how can such a thing happen… so I had 2 slices of bread. (He eats the bread more than I do, but I usually have it around.) These were the end of the loaf, so I toasted them. (Which still gave me the crispness I like.)
For dinner, we had pork chops, browned and simmered in a little chicken broth, with scallions and fresh sage. I had some really lovely fresh Swiss chard on the side, and the ubiquitous rice. Then a glass of seltzer with a little lime, just for a change from my usual plain water.
Linking up with Peas and Crayons…
Love your dressing recipe. I think I’d make it with yogurt to make it thicker, but still use some buttermilk for the flavor.
Thanks!
Once you blend it, the yogurt isn’t as much thicker as you’d think… but, especially with Greek yogurt, there is some difference. And that does give you a slightly different tangy flavor – also good.
