What we haven't been eating is too many new recipes. I'm just getting back into cooking after a pretty laid back summer. The few new recipes I've tried fall into two categories:
1) I'll never make it again
or
2) I took a photo but due to my computer kinda half-way craashing and backing everything up on my external hard drive so I can use Josh's school computer . . well, the photos need to be sorted.
I did try a new evening snack though!
Ok, this is a photo from Google and my version of this was much simplier!
In this house, we tend to eat dinner early. I've actually started trying to push dinner to 5:30 or 5:45 instead of our normal 5:00 just to try and eliminate the second dinner at 7:30 HA! Because we eat earlier, I am ready for snack by 8:30 and it is easy to just start grabbing stuff. I've been working on finding some new, healthier options that still meet the "sweet, crunchy, salty" craving that comes at night.
My simple version of the above is:
1 carton of vanilla pudding (you know - just a pudding cup)
A handful of raspberries (or blueberries, black berries etc)
Throw in a little bit of your favorite granola (or nuts of any kind)
It's easy, its tasty, and it is just the right amount for a snack.
