Mmmmm Moe’s!

Dinner tonight was delish and full ‘o veggies!  I ordered my usual:  the Personal Trainer which is a salad piled high with cucumbers, tomatoes, black beans, olives, shredded cheese, jalapenos.  I also ordered the optional grilled veggies to pile on top which included grilled peppers and onions.  I did without the dressing and just used salsa as my dressing instead.  It was delish!  I should really try recreating this at home.  This picture is deceiving but my salad was probably 4″ higher than than the rim of the bowl and I could only stomach half of it…

Probably because I filled up on their amazing chips & queso…

At least tomorrow I’ll get to enjoy the rest of my salad!

Now it’s off to relax, grab a cup of decaf tea and enjoy the end of Friday :)

Spinachy

Din din was a yummy treat for me:  breakfast for dinner!  Since I’m avoiding meat, I put in a meat-filled frozen pizza for Bill along with a leftover part of one of his quesadillas from last night.  By the way, I read a comment asking what kind of tortillas I used, they were Ortega whole wheat, simply b/c it was the only whole wheat tortilla I could find that didn’t have HFCS :)

On my plate, however, was a yummy mix of proteins & veggies!  I had a Morningstar veggie sausage, one “fried” egg (I just kept flipping it) that I topped with hot sauce, regular steamed spinach, and then a serving of this Stouffer’s spinach souffle that my mom had given to me.  I know I had lots of spinach in this post, but I love it so!

On the side for an extra veggie punch, we had salads that I topped with leftover sugar snap peas and cucumbers.  I topped it balsamic dressing and mixed it all together.

Ok, now true to my Lenten goals, I’m shutting the laptop!  Then I will be off to enjoy Biggest Loser & Lost!
