May 3: Piles of Produce

I am really in the mood for piles of veggies and mountains of fruit.  YUM.  I really went on a crazy grocery spree and bought:

Broccoli

Grape Tomatoes

Baby Red Leaf Lettuce

Pineapple

Apples

Red Grapes

Cantaloupe

Mushrooms

Green Beans

Vidalia Onions

Baby Carrots

Frozen Chopped Spinach

HUGE bag of frozen blueberries

Potatoes

I was in the midst of a massive craving at the store so I went a wee bit crazy.  What's on the menu this week?

Monday: Chicken stir-fried with broccoli, onion, carrots and mushrooms

Tuesday:  Baked ziti in red sauce with beef, spinach and cottage cheese

Wednesday:  Grilled chicken, garlic green beans, mashed potatoes

Thursday: Taco Salad w/ tomatoes, lettuce, onion, and beef

Friday: Homemade pizza with chicken, mushroom, onion and broccoli

Fruit is always my #1 go-to snack - my mouth is watering just writing this!  As you can see from the above, I'm lowering the carb intake to every other day at supper.  We'll see what happens!

I'm also struggling to get my exercise in now that I am working part-time.  I wonder how the days fly by as quickly as they do?  I've decided to just try and break it up into two 30 minute increments.
