Catch-Up

I promise to be better with posting regularly, really I do!  I was away for the weekend and not feeling too well.

So... Recently?  I have been working on....

Pancakes.

Cheap Food.

Eggplant Smush Macaroni with leftovers.

Leftover Teriyaki Stir-Fry

LET'S BEGIN!!

Pancakes:

Whole wheat dough + cinnimon + flax seeds+ fake eggs + blackberries = ????

Cheap Food:

Each of these were $1.  Can you believe it??!?! $1 for like 15 pears and $1 for a bag FULLLLL of garlic!

Eggplant Smush:

Cut up some eggplants.

Add it to pan with onions, garlic, bread crumbs, olive oil, and parsley.

When it was adequately sauteed, I added some tomato sauce I had made before and frozen, then added it to macaroni and spooned some ricotta on top.

I had some leftover.... Lunch the next day was an eggplant smush sandwich!!!

Leftover Teriyaki Stir-Fry:

I knew I wanted veggies and macaroni.  This meal started out as maybe frozen peas with chicken broth or something. I saw that I had frozen asparagus stir fry, so that was in.

I was peeking in the fridge and noticed I had some honey-teriyaki marinade/sauce leftover.  It wasn't the type of thing I usually like to cook with, but it was perfect for this and I wanted to finish it.  There was also a BBQed chicken breast from John's mom's house that I threw in.

Served over whole wheat shells!

Breakfasts of Champions!

MMmmMMmmMMmm Breakfast!

I love pancakes. L.O.V.E. them. I will put anything I can into them and I enjoy them to no end. Unfortunately, I rarely make them. Since today was a lazy Saturday, I decided to make them. We only have a premixed batter that is NOT whole wheat :( so I had to think of some way to up the nutritional value.




LUCKLY I bought ground flax seed yesterday! I mixed that with the batter, unsweetened coconut, and blackberries I had frozen a few weeks ago after I over-bought at the farmers' market!

Check out that gooey goodness!!
