I have completely changed the focus of my blog. I have not deleted old posts, so there are old unrelated posts. I will be blogging about the food I cook as my husband and I work towards a healthier lifestyle. I will have menus, pictures, recipes and tips on eating healthier. I hope you enjoy!

Feedback from last weeks Menu

Monday: Out to eat at Olive Garden.


Tuesday: Breakfast food!  We had waffles and sausage patties and they were very good!!  We will be doing breakfast more often!

Wednesday: Asian Salmon with rice and veggies.  This is one of our favorites and it did not dissapoint this time around.  We had peas for the veggie which was a little different for this type of meal, but they sounded so good!!

Thursday: Spinach and Turkey Enchiladas.  OK, I loved these and ate the leftovers all week for lunch!  I am really becoming a spinach eater!!  My husband wasn't a huge fan.  He ate them and even ate them one day for leftovers, but he felt like the enchilada should only be meat and lots of cheese. 

Friday: Home-Style Sausage and Potato Skillet.  This was so good!!  I'm not usually into "home-style" cooking or eating for that matter, but this was delicious!!

OK, trying not to be such a slacker, but it's not working out so well...  But, here is feedback from the last menu I posted, then I will post this weeks menu!
Tuesday: Singapore Mai Fun, this was really good-this was something brand new.  I had these Mai Fun noodles and had to find a recipe to go with them and ... success!!! 
Wednesday: Spaghetti and Meatballs, I had some leftover meatballs from our Italian meatball subs, so I put them in the freezer and decided to use them for spaghetti and meatballs.  Not so good.  The meatballs were an original recipe that needs some tweaking anyway and just didn't really go that great with the spaghetti.
Thursday: Tacos, super yummy as usual!!
