What We Ate: Dec 30-Jan 5

05Jan08

Lest you think we only eat one meal a day (HA!), I want to note that this is just a list of dinner, and the occasional other special meal.

December 30: We came home to empty cupboards and an empty fridge after being away for almost a week. All we had around were tortilla chips and cheese, so we had nachos and pumpkin cheesecake (thanks to Adam’s mum!) for dinner.

December 31: We had Cob’s garlic and cheese focaccia with balsamic vinegar and olive oil as an appy. Adam made chicken stuffed with blue cheese, pear and walnuts, and a salad with the same three as toppings. We had chocolate cheesecake from Cheesecake 101 for dessert. Sparkling juice to drink! A yummy New Year’s Eve dinner at home.

January 1: We actually skipped dinner! We had a very late, very large lunch out with a friend.

January 2: Turkey tacos with lots of veggies and cheese. We rolled them in yummy whole grain wraps.

January 3: We were both pretty beat, so just had a really basic whole wheat spaghetti with tomato-y sauce, and a lovely salad.

January 4: Friday night dinners are typically pretty chill for us. We had shake-n-bake chicken, baked sweet potato fries, and steamed carrots and broccoli. It was a bright and colourful meal!

January 5: Tonight I’ll be making chicken and pear turnovers, from Rachael Ray. I’ll post about them tomorrow. We ended up ordering a pizza because we forgot to defrost the chicken and were running out of time! We also had nibblies – spinach dip, salsa and chips, etc – at a birthday party we went to.
