Vegcellent

by J3nn (Jenn's Menu and Lifestyle Blog) on May 17, 2011

I’m happy to report that Dustin’s anniversary present was finally delivered today! YAY! Now I can feel good about opening my boxes, which I still haven’t done yet. Open-mouthed smile Maybe I’ll get to it tomorrow. heh

Apparently, mom cleaned out the upstairs freezer while we were sleeping today. It was all neatly organized and missing several things that had been lingering since who-knows-when. I was pleased to be reunited with some of my favorites: A box of Trident salmon burgers and vacuum-sealed salmon fillets. Salmon burgers instantly went on tonight’s dinner menu, along with a bunch of fresh veggies chillin’ in the fridge.

Six different veggies on this plate! Surprised smile

White onions, romaine lettuce, red cabbage shreds, roasted Brussels sprouts, cucumber (+pickle), and plum tomato.

I threw together a little side salad with one baby cuke, plum tomato, diced white onions, parsley from my AeroGarden, sea salt, black pepper, EVOO, and red wine vinegar. I can’t get enough of these DELICIOUS white onions!

SO GOOD!

Drop of mayo + yellow mustard on the other side of the sprouted grain roll. Salmon burger (130 cal) cooked on indoor George Foreman grill, no added oils.

Brussels sprouts tossed in EVOO, garlic sea salt, and black pepper, roasted on 425F on a baking sheet lined with nonstick foil for 18 minutes, then wrapped in the foil they were sitting on and sat on the counter for about 10 minutes to cook a bit more. Soooo yummmmmmmy!!

Excellent, veggie-filled dinner. I want to go downstairs to eat the rest of those roasted Brussels, lol. Devil They’re addictive!

We have to go to sleep early tonight, we’re going to my grandma’s birthday party tomorrow evening, plus my uncle and his boyfriend (not a typo!!) are visiting from Atlanta. So, it’s a family-filled day tomorrow, with unhealthy (but delicious) Italian food from Frankie and Johnny’s (Hurlyville) and cake. Definitely doing intermittent fasting from tonight until dinner, lol.

But before I start my fast… where are those leftover Brussels? *giggles*

Out of all the veggies on my plate, which one is your favorite? Or do you dislike all of them? Laughing out loud

Who else lives here? Holla if you like your veggies stacked to the sky!   Jessica is probably cringing right now, lol. I picked up some gorgeous brussels at Shop Rite yesterday… I’ve had that little purple cutting board for about 10 years now. It’s been very durable over the years! Do you have favorite [...]

Maturing Taste Buds

August 18, 2010 Jenneral Posts

Not so long ago I couldn’t imagine being satisfied by and actually enjoying a meal that consisted of a salmon burger dressed with nothing but a grainy mustard and a robust salad on the side. These days, it seems that the things that I crave the most are the least complicated, which doesn’t always make [...]

Slim Sandwiches and Fluffy Salads

July 29, 2010 Jenneral Posts

I’m really into sandwich “thins” lately. They’re just so ideal to hold a full-size sandwich for so few calories. I was excited to find Harvest Pride Slim Buns at Shop Rite the other day: they’re just 80 calories and 120mg sodium each! Of course they’re very thin, but they do the job and they aren’t [...]

Just Like Riding A Bike

July 22, 2010 Jenneral Posts

My transition back into eating cooked foods was seamless. No problems at all, it was just like riding a bike. Except I’m riding a bicycle built for two this week because Aunt Flo and her heavy luggage decided to join me for the ride. Figures, I lose a lot of puffiness last week and here [...]
