Welcome to WIAW on Thursday!
Breakfast was a Chobani Lemon Greek Yogurt with my Peanut Butter Granola Bar. They are my favorite new breakfast item!
I realized, I do not like the fat free yogurt. Only 2% for!!
Lunch was provided by a Drug Rep. I had salad, broccoli, red smashed potatoes, chicken, meatloaf, and a lemon square. I could have ate a whole pan of the lemon squares!
Wednesday night, started with a run on the beach. Running isn't as bad when you have bare feet, splashing through the water.
Huck didn't run. He was just hanging out taking pictures :)

Chopped Challenge
A couple of days ago, while at Whole Foods, me and Huck split up and picked out a few ingredients for our Challenge. I had to find a veggie and protein, and Huck was in charge of a veggie and a free item that could be anything he wanted.
I picked out Mung Bean and jicama. Huck got rainbow Swiss Chard and Maple syrup. Really? Maple Syrup!
|
I soaked and cooked the beans before dinner since they took longer. |
|
Huck's Chard and Jicama |
|
My veggies |
|
I was responsible for the first course. I made a Fish "Stew" |
|
Huck made the main course. He brushed his fish with the maple syrup and sprinkled with ground red pepper and dried garlic. |
|
I made a garnish for my soup with yellow tomatoes, raw jicama, bell pepper, jalapeno, and maple syrup. |
|
Huck's fish tasted surprisingly good. He had a really good idea with the mix of spicy and sweet. He boiled the greens and jicama in chicken stock and just served the beans on the side. |
|
I cooked my ingredients with a can of diced tomatoes, beans, chicken stock, onions, and garlic.
And the winner is.....
Huck!!
|
I have declared Huck the winner of this challenge. I did not like the soup. It just wasn't good. I enjoyed the beans and the chard on their own and his fish really did taste pretty good. Dinner was pretty much a disaster, though!
Next time, I will not hold back! :)
