Chocolate attack

On the way home from work this afternoon I had a mad chocolate craving, so I ran into a bodega and bought two mini 3 Musketeers.  I ate one immediately – like, almost before I paid – but here’s the other one:

I’m slightly unsettled by the fact that these are clearly from Christmas, what with [...]

So I ate this Z Bar while I was waiting for the bus this morning:

I very rarely eat before going to the gym, just because I’m not usually hungry that early.  But this morning I was starving for some reason, so I grabbed this on my way out the door, and I now think that [...]

Tempeh!

I always feel like I should shout that word for some reason, possibly because it is so tasty.  Especially if you marinate it the way Heidi Swanson tells you to:

This is her maple grilled tempeh.  Except it’s not grilled because I’m not allowed to use my grill pan.
On the side, we had Trader Joe’s brown [...]

Give and take

I was hungry today!  I love days like this because it means I can eat more and I clearly really enjoy eating.
Anyway, this afternoon I had two of the peaches my mom gave me.  Here’s one:

These are the best peaches I’ve ever had.  Thank  you mom, you have changed my life.  Seriously.  They are so [...]

New best friend

No, I did not zest these vegetables.  But I might try.  I am obsessed with zest.  Do you understand what lemon zest does to pasta?  It’s remarkable, really.  I’ve had this little zester for a few years, but never used it until recently.  I kind of thought it was broken. But check out the product [...]

Getting it right

Man, this was good:

I have no idea what to call it, so we’re going to go with shrimp and rice salad.  Chris wanted me to name it “Shrimp Surprise.”  He’s quite creative.
Anyway, the recipe.  I made it up as I went along but I think I have the proportions about right:
3/4 cup brown rice
1 or [...]

Seriously, did I eat eight servings in two days?

Apparently, according to Yorgo’s.
But I couldn’t help it.  This stuff is so good.  And healthy.  Especially when eaten in mass quantities with my cucumbers.
Anyway, I ate the last of it while I was waiting for my fake bacon to cook for my BLT sandwich that I had [...]

I have about 42 of Heidi Swanson’s recipes bookmarked, but for some reason I always forget about them when I’m trying to figure out something to cook.  Tonight, I finally made her Garlic Soba Noodles and it was SO. GOOD.

But the best part wasn’t the soba noodles.  It was the tofu.  I usually just make [...]

This could be trouble

Sorry for the late post, I didn’t eat any snacks this afternoon.
Unless you consider about a pound of cookie dough a snack.
I don’t.

Chocolate chip cookies.  I made them for my friend’s bbq tomorrow.  And then I ate three.  And then I stood over the tupperware container, staring at them.  Chris finally pulled me away when [...]

I am observant

We went and got some groceries when Chris got home from work, thank god, and I made taco salads:

It looks huge, I know. That’s because it is.  I ate it all.  It has a black bean/cumin/chili powder/cayenne mixture, lots of lettuce, bell peppers, corn, cheddar cheese, avocado, tomatoes, red onions, salsa, lime juice and Trader [...]
