more please!

I FINALLY TRIED BARNEY BUTTER!

and it was just as delicious as you all told me it would be. ahh! i’m going to be so sad when these two packets are gone 😦

i had my first taste of barney butter in this lovely sandwich- i think i’ve seen the pb + spinach combo on a few diff blogs, so i don’t know who to credit but it was so great. totally my kinda sandwich!

lunch: whole wheat bread smeared with half packet of barney butta, pink lady apple slices, and spinach!

i can’t wait to eat this again. and again. and again!

i had to run out the door, so i didn’t get a chance to eat a bigger lunch. but i did bring along a cookie and the rest of my cantaloupe to enjoy on the road.

go me! i actually mailed out a card- before the holiday for once!

for dinner, i tried out the ginger beef recipe from the low fat, low carb cooking class that i took a few weeks ago.

this recipe called for a full cup of minced ginger! that seemed like a bit much, i used more like 1/4 cup and the dish still had sooo much flavor. i threw in some green beans with the beef and ate it alongside shredded red cabbage and brown rice. this angle makes it seem like i ate a boatload of rice!

i’ll be making this dish regularly since it was so easy and tasty…next time i’ll throw in more veggies. i actually have a few new recipes i’ll be trying soon so i guess a slow week isn’t so bad- it leaves me lots of time to spend in the kitchen. 🙂

i’ll see ya again on hump day. have a good night!
