My day in the world of eating went well. I made strawberry banana smoothies for an afternoon snack with our brand new Vitamix blender. I took the plunge today and bought it at Costco. Oh yes, I did. It was hands down the best smoothie I've ever made at home. Joe and I pooled our birthday money to buy the Vitamix and I'm looking forward to putting it to work. Side note, I am now a Costco member. I joined today since the Vitamix sells for $110 less there than it does online. I probably should have joined a long time ago, this finally got me in the door. I'll keep you informed as I try new things with the Vitamix and let you know what I think. For now, my first reaction is two thumbs up!
Here's what I had today:
Breakfast - Banana oat pancakes
I got the temperature control figured out with my skillet today so they were a pretty golden color instead of overdone. Yummy!
Lunch - Red lentil and sweet potato stew
The last of the leftovers from week one. One of my favorite recipes from the first week.
Dinner - Broccoli chickpea salad
I'm a broccoli fan so I enjoyed this dish. The dressing was nice and light.
