Day Thirty-four

Dessert (I'm putting this first, b/c it's my favorite): Creme brule (crockpot; recipe: Make it Fast, Cook it Slow). This was SO easy and SO delicious. This woman who wrote this crockpot cookbook is a genius!!


Breakfast: Oatmeal with diced apples and cinnamon.


Dinner: Cheesy rice, bean, and zucchini burritos (whole grain wraps, jasmine rice, red and white kidney beans, shredded low-fat cheddar, and shredded zucchini. I intended to use black beans, but oddly we didn't have any), and watermelon.

Day Thirty-three

Dinner: Brown sugar chicken (crockpot; recipe: Make it Fast, Cook it Slow), over brown rice, with peas, and fresh watermelon. I'm sad to say that watermelon is officially out of season... this one was terrible, and will be the last one I buy until next year!

Day Thirty-two

Leftovers from the weekend. Woo hoo!

Day Thirty-one

Dinner: Turkey hot dogs, whole wheat rotini made into mac and cheese (with pureed cauliflower; recipe: Sneaky Chef), steamed edamame, and sliced apples. I will admit that this is the turkey hot dog that caused an adult tantrum. 'Nuff said.
