This morning started with a HomeMade Egg McMuffin. Instead of cheese, I used Low Fat Cream Cheese. It adds extra creaminess to it. I was really upset when I over cooked the egg, though. I enjoyed a glass of milk with my breakfast. I’m trying to consume more calcium.

After an almost 2 hour ride to South Miami and back, we arrived home just in time for lunch. I had leftovers from dinner for my lunch. I tried a sample from the Publix Apron the other day while shopping and wanted to try it at home. I did a few different things from the original recipe.

Honey-Rosemary Chicken and Bulgur

  • 1/2 Cup Fresh Squeezed Orange Juice
  • 2 Chicken Breast
  • 1 Tbsp Rosemary- Chopped
  • 2 Tbsp Honey
  • 1/2 Tbsp Fresh Ginger- Grated
  • Salt and Pepper to Taste
  • 1/2 Tbsp Oil
  • 1/2 Cup Onion-Chopped
  • 8 oz Mushrooms- Sliced
  • 1 Cup Bulgur
  • 2 Cups Water
  • 1/3 Cup Light Asian Sesame Dressing
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  2. Mix together Orange, rosemary, honey, ginger, and salt and pepper.
  3. Place chicken on baking sheet and brush on half of the mixture.
  4. Bake for 30 minutes; baste chicken every 10 minutes with remaining mixture.
  5. While chicken is cooking, preheat pot. Add oil and onions and mushroom: cook a few minutes or until tender.
  6. Add Bulgur and stir. Toast for 1-2 minutes or until lightly toasted. Stir in water and bring to a simmer.
  7. Cover and cook for 8-10 minutes. Stir in sesame seed dressing and serve.
  8. Remove Chicken from oven and let rest. Slice and serve over bulgur.

Kale Salad

  • 2 Lemons-Juiced
  • 1/4 Cup Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1 Cup Grape Tomatoes- Halved
  • 8 oz Fresh Kale- Chopped
  • 1/3 Cup Shredded Parmesan Cheese
  • 1 oz Slivered Almonds- Toasted
  1. Add lemon juice to bowl. Whisk in oil and add salt and pepper to taste.
  2. Mix kale, tomatoes, dressing, Parmesan, and Almonds together.
  3. Serve.

My lunch did not look this pretty! :)

After lunch, I took a nap! A 2 hour nap! I felt horrible after waking up. I thought a run before dinner would make me feel better. Me and Ginny went for a mile run around the neighborhood. We were attacked by 3 little yapping dogs and a crazy lady screaming at them to get inside on our way back home. I was scared Ginny was going to hurt one of them when they were nipping at his legs. I told the lady she needed to pick her dogs up and take them inside instead of just screaming at them. It made for an interesting story :)

While I was running, Huck made us spaghetti with lots of veggies. He added onion, peppers, and mushrooms to the sauce, and I enjoyed my paste with more Kale Salad.

And that was another WIAW extra veggie edition.
