This past week we spent a lot of time taking pictures of random things around the house to get used to the insane amount of features this thing has. Naturally, that lead me to the idea of sharing pictures of our meals this week. Ryan has definitely learned how to use this faster than I have, so you can assume any of the pictures that actually look good were taken by him ;-)
Sunday: Blackbean & Quinoa Burrito's
Blackbeans sauted with yellow pepper, cumin & chipotle pepper, over quinoa mixed with salsa, topped with tomatos and avacado. Delish!
Breakfast: Smoothies & coffee
During the week Ryan and I have the same thing for breakfast every day. A smoothie (banana, strawberries, other fruits, flax, kefir and a little milk) and a cup of coffee with just a little creamer and a good amount of cinnamon. So good!
Monday: Maple & Mustard Chicken with roasted sweet potatos
Chicken breasts cooked in olive oil and glazed in a sauce made of maple syrup, spicy mustard & red wine vinegar. On the side was chopped sweet potatos roasted in olive oil & S&P. Easy!!
Tuesday: Valentines Day!!
Ryan's famous chicken marsala with okra on the side (followed by some amazing cupcakes from Pearl's)
Read about our Valentine's day tradition here. And here is how we felt after cupcakes! haha...
Sorry Bumper, no cupcakes for diabetic kitties!
Wednesday: Pesto pizza with mushrooms & fresh mozzarella
Whole grain pizza crust topped with pesto, mushrooms & sliced mozzarella. We were so hungry when this came out of the oven we inhaled it without taking an after shot! oops!Thursday: Thursday I came home with a craving for mexican so we ate out and naturally did not think to take pictures! haha...
Friday: Island Chicken
To read how to make island chicken, click here.Well that is a fairly typical menu for a week in the Shannon Casa. We are still learning how to use this camera, but I have to say some of these pictures came out pretty good! I am excited to get even better with this and be able to post some really awesome food photos!
Happy Eating!
