I've been so busy lately that I haven't had a chance to plan out some menus. I do so much better preparing meals when I have a plan. (See: Making a menu plan.)
Tonight I couldn't think of what to fix for supper, so I pulled out the old reliable... sauteed veggies with whole wheat pasta, drizzled with olive oil. I use whatever veggies I have on hand and this time it was zucchini, tomatoes, mushrooms, garlic, and chopped Kalamata olives, sprinkled with sea salt and white pepper.
Successful meal. I wish everything I whipped together at the last minute would turn out so great!
I'm making our menu plan/shopping list today, too! It's a big chore, but it feels so good to not have so much time consumed each night asking "What's for dinner?"
ReplyDeleteI need to include more quick (yet healthy) meals to prepare. My last menu plan had too many takes-too-long-to-prepare meals, so I never felt like making them.
DeleteSounds delicious! Maybe I'll try that over brown rice pasta next time I have a tomato/zucchini day. They're not really on rice day, but I could trade rice and millet days. I'm trying to stick to the rotation diet again because I started getting heartburn. and eating more veggies!
ReplyDeleteI've never had brown rice pasta... how does it taste compared to whole wheat pasta? Similar in texture or flavor? I should try that sometime.
