Lisa’s Rant….life and healthy eating

First of all I had a snack of some simple harvest oatmeal at work around 4:30 because my stomach was growling and I was going straight to the gym after work. Has anyone noticed that simple harvest doesn’t get to the same consistancy as most oats? Its still good just different. I feel like I’m eating a hybrid of oats and granola.

Wow I’m not going to get an award for food photography thats for sure. sorry guys.

Anyways on to dinner. I had some extra time tonight since the bf is traveling for work. So I decided to cook I had some squash and some pasta so then I started throwing things in the pot and it came out sooo yummy.  I can’t even type out the recipe because I tend to not measure things and just eyeball it.

I chopped up some yellow squash and grilled it on the george forman grill. In the meantime I cooked some whole wheat pasta. Once both the squash and pasta were done I added some cherry tomatos, feta cheese, artichoke hearts, olive oil to taste, salt and pepper to taste, and some minced garlic. It turned out really really good. This is a keeper and so easy. I had my dish below as well as seconds (oops!).

My plan for the rest of the evening is to work on some more flash cards for nutrition class and watch some on shows I dvr’d. We just got dvr and i’m obsessed. how did i live without it!

Night!
