Weekend With Wings

This weekend has just flown by. I can't believe it is already Sunday night! Didn't get everything done that I wanted to but I did manage to check off a couple things on my to-do list. That works for me!

Here is a look at some of my eats this weekend.

Saturday Night Dinner

I'm trying to use up some food that is taking up room in my fridge/freezer. This dinner was literally thrown together in a wok and heated up. Consisted of fresh garlic, rice, corn, snow peas, soy sauce and left over spicy broccoli. All the flavors worked well together and tasted great!

Dessert was a bowl of Edy's Slow Churned Samoas Cookie Ice Cream:

So good! I can't have this in the house anymore because I have no self control!

After ice cream it was time to say goodnight. My little dog was just tuckered out:

Breakfast

I woke up early today and started cooking breakfast for my husband. I started off preparing some warmed apples.

2 gala apples, agave nectar, cinnamon and a little water.

Next up was bacon for my husband. I pulled out the Cuisinart Griddler and started grilling some meat.

Patrick said it turned out good. I will have to take his word for it since I don't eat bacon like this.

I do, however, like blueberry pancakes so that was my next task. So I mixed up the batter:

and for the heck of it I crumbled some bacon into the batter:

Cooked them on the griddler, covered them with syrup and chowed down. The bacon was awesome in the pancakes. The salty-ness really came through!

Let's not forget about the most important part of breakfast, Coffee!

Nothing better than a latte with some ground cinnamon on top:

Great breakfast! Can't wait to share with everyone what I made to eat during the Super Bowl! It was so freakin' good!

Leftover Thanksgiving - Yum!

Had a good lunch today. Salad, which is a food I love. I had lettuce, mushrooms, black olives, sprouts, sunflower seeds, toasted almonds, tuna and a light vinaigrette dressing. I put all the ingredients in a bowl.

I like my salads all chopped up into bite size pieces. So, I used this handy little tool to accomplish the chopping:

And my salad turned out just the way I like it:

I love being able to have a little bit of every ingredient in every bite.

Dinner consisted of leftover Thanksgiving food. Not sure if I'm alone but I prefer the leftovers over the day of Thanksgiving food. I made myself a sandwich with turkey, stuffing, gravy and mashed potatoes. I then pressed it and had a delicious sandwich!

I will for sure have this sandwich again in the near future. I think it would be even better with some hot peppers.

After dinner I made Pillsbury simple chocolate chip cookies:

They were ok but not as good as homemade cookies.

While I baked cookies my husband made me a captain morgan cocktail, perfect for a Sunday night.

Time for me to sign off and mentally prepare for the Monday workday :(

Question:

What do you do the night before a work day to make the mornings easier?

I try to pack my work bag and figure out my clothes the night before. This way I don't have to think to much in the morning.

Until tomorrow.
