I know you mostly come here for the gratuitous pictures of my dogs, so here is one that Christina caught of Mr. Perfect himself:
Like a little greeting card from Dogtopia. ♥
I rarely if ever buy my food pre-made and processed in a box, bag, or carton. HOWEVER, about once a year I get a serious jonesin’ for Kashi’s frozen Mayan Harvest Bake. Everything about it is just tasty and delicious – plantains, sweet potatoes, black beans, and kale in this smoky ancho chili sauce a over pilaf/amaranth/polenta medley. Bomb.com
I’ve also been diving into ethnic food lately and I’m determined to try different Indian flavors to decide which ones I like the best. I know next to nothing about Indian cuisine, but I love flavors like cumin, coriander, tumeric, curry, etc. The last few times I’ve been to the grocery store, I make sure to grab a different simmer sauce to test out. I figure if I like it even a little bit, I can hunt around for a recipe to duplicate at home. Last night was Chicken Vindaloo over Coconut Rice – I was really happy with the heat in this one! It had smoky undertones and it was spicy! It has a pretty big kick, but it didn’t last long enough that you felt like you were suffering through the spice. It kind of overpowered my precious coconut rice, so I won’t be using that combo again! The texture of the simmer sauce was a bit gritty, I don’t know if that’s normal or not. Anyone out there with more Indian experience let me know your thoughts/suggestions, I want more more more!!!
I feel weird saying this, but I’ve actually been enjoying some of the HIIT/Tabata work I’ve been doing! Here is the circuit I’ve been doing lately:
I am going to have to do 2x more than I’ve been doing if I’m going to work off all that simmer sauce! 😉 I regret nothing!!
Oh and hi from us!
