My sister and I have been trying to find a healthy cooking path to start down that we will actually stick with and enjoy. Our pick was based on our mutual likes, so it landed on Mediterranean cooking. These people seem to be healthier and more fit than other cultures, and they have some seriously yummy food. So my sister bought this book yesterday, Modern Mediterranean Cooking, and we tried the Parmesan chicken recipe. We used pork chops, because it's what we had thawed out, and it was delicious! I'll have to post the recipe later, because I think she took the book to work with her today. We also had green beans and salad with it.
Totally yummy looking, right!
Ok, so for lunch I had this lovely sandwich here. One of my favorite sandwiches to make and eat, and I usually share half with Jax. What's in it? A hoagie roll, some mustard, turkey slices, avocado slices, tomato, and whatever kind of cheese you'd like to put on there. I used some fine shredded Mexican blend of 6 different cheeses. Sprinkle some garlic powder and salt free all purpose seasoning (McCormicks) on it, and pop it in the toaster oven until the cheese is melted. This makes the tomatoes get warm enough to release that super yummy slightly cooked flavor. I add the avocado slices after it comes out of the toaster oven. Cut it in half or quarters and serve.
I didn't get any real exercise in yesterday, but I ate healthy and made about a dozen extra trips up and down the stairs. I've been in a workout lull right now, and I'm not happy about it. I have to get back to it today. I'll tell you about it later when I post the Parm chicken recipe.
