These have been a busy (but productive!) couple of days for me. I have actually been doing my readings for classes and trying to stay up-to-date with everything. It's so much harder now that I'm living with my boyfriend and have all of these extra chores that come with having my own apartment and a puppy. But I'm trying!
The other night, I made these corn and shrimp quesadillas with avocado and onion salad. The recipe was in Every Day w/ RR's February issue.
Sometimes I don't really like RR's recipes. They have too much going on or something. But I liked these! I really liked all of the lime flavors.
Monday: Oatmeal.

Leftover soup.
Peach Chobani. Yum!
And then what? Another RR recipe? Even BETTER than the other one? Behold: Bowties, Brussels Sprouts and Candied Almonds.
I am sort of in love with this recipe. I didn't think that it was going to be anything special, but it turned out being fantastic! I used feta cheese and roasted the almonds myself. Speaking of those almonds, I ate WAY too many of them all that day. I'm hiding them from myself now.
Plus, my new obsession in a new flavor. Oatmeal raisin Otterbein cookies.
I should have a Baltimore cookie party. Which by the way, Otterbein cookies are on the list of 100 things Baltimore foodies should do!
Yesterday: Oatmeal.
My lunch and snacks.
Ginger terriyaki veggie cake, blueberry Chobani, pumpernickel pretzels, kiwi, carrots, apple, and cherry chocolate Kashi.
For dinner, G had really been wanting to try the new Dominos pizza. Before dinner I had a small salad. I got a Pacific Veggie pizza with thin crust, spinach, onions, mushrooms, tomatoes and black olives with feta and provolone cheeses. It's advertised on a parmesan crust, but I'm not sure I got that. I also left off the roasted red peppers.
I had three pieces like that.
The verdict: this was a really good pizza! And not just for a chain restaurant. I was really impressed with the ingredients and the textures of everything. And go Dominos for being a little innovative! I still have some leftovers, but I'm probably going to try to keep myself away from them today.
I also had 2 of those Otterbein cookies last night. Addictive.
I just finished some cinnamon swirl toast with smart balance and a kiwi for breakfast.
I've been pretty good with counting my calories for the past couple of days. I really need to be a little more strict about it until I get myself into a better place.
Does anyone use The Daily Plate? I am loving the changes that they have been making to the site. I am hoping to get a new phone this month and I think the changes are going to make it really accessible on the go!
Do you use apps or programs for every day things like eating or working out? Which ones? I love The Daily Plate, UrbanSpoon, Super Cook, and Calorie Count!
