Another week has gone by. I thought I'd be writing with a pretty view of grass and trees. Unfortunately not so, it snowed last night and I have a winter do-over for a few days. However I know the snow will be gone quickly and spring will come back. On to the eats.
Breakfast: Scrambled eggs with spinach, toast with natural peanut butter, pineapple and coffee. I thought I'd treat myself to scrambled eggs yesterday. I love to add bit of spinach and some cheese as well.
Lunch: Cream of mushroom and barley soup and grapes. I thought I would have leftovers from dinner the previous night, but my family ate them all. So luckily I had a container of soup in the freezer all ready to go. I based my soup loosely on this recipe. I added a few more spices and a little less cream and blended some of the soup for a creamer consistency.
After school I needed some tea on a blustery day. After 2 pm I only have decaf tea. This one, roasted almond chai, is from a local tea store. They sell everything in loose leaves which makes the process of making the tea that much more relaxing.
Dinner: Thai curry with chicken and brown rice. My daughter found the curry recipe one day searching for something for lunch so I just added some chicken for a more substantial dinner. The curry had peppers, carrots and spinach in one skillet, so it made for an easy cleanup. As you can see wine and water to drink.
Dessert: (not pictured) a bowl of coffee ice cream with chocolate sauce. I always like a sweet ending.
Bon Appétit!
And as always with love from the Midwest,
Beth
