Tuesday Dinner

We had some leftovers tonight. All good stuff. Imagine Tomato & Red Pepper soup with organic elbow macaroni added. Sliced turkey breast on Alvarado Street Bakery sprouted burger bun with slice of organic yellow heirloom tomato & baby lettuces & fresh homegrown organic alfalfa sprouts. And, half an organic banana. With mugful of homemade organic almond milk. I am stuffed! No picture taken tonight.

Sprouts!

I am finally making sprouts! Alfalfa sprouts to be exact. I bought these sprouting trays a month or so ago & thought I better start using them! This is about 48 hours in.
I won't be using such small seeds in these trays in the future, but the alfalfa seeds came with it. They are hard to rinse as they flow out the sides, then I have to pick them out of the sink! Kind of annoying. So, I'll stick to jars for the little seeds. But, bigger seeds and nuts will work great in it.

Monday Dinner

My mom made a really good dinner. Whole turkey breast seasoned with Cajun seasoning and chives. Organic spring mix salad with organic heirloom tomato & natural olives. With Bragg's organic ginger & sesame dressing. And, organic grapes.
The turkey breast was huge. I was only able to eat half. Saving the rest for lunch tomorrow.

Sauteed Squash Dinner

I just finished a yummy early dinner. I needed to use up some of the winter squash & zucchini that I got from my egg farmer the other day, so this is what I came up with. This served 2.

2 small chicken breasts
2 small organic winter squashes, sliced
1/2 red onion, sliced
1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
1 Tablespoon organic olive oil
pinch salt
pinch black pepper
1/4 teaspoon thyme
3 dehydrated basil leaves, crumbled
2-inch sprig of fresh rosemary, leaves pulled from stalk
1 Tablespoon Newman's Own Balsamic Vinaigrette dressing
2 Mi Abuelita Bonita Spinach & Onion flour tortillas

Bake the chicken breasts in 350F oven for about 10 minutes. Cut into small pieces.
Cover bottom of large cast iron skillet with olive oil. Add vegetables & chicken. Stir to cover them in oil. Cook on medium-low until slightly browned & the onion is transluscent. Add salt, pepper & herbs. Stir until thoroughly cooked. Add vinaigrette. Serve with warmed tortilla.
