Healthier Eating

Being so busy, we eat whatever is fastest! But on my days off I really like to cook! This was from Cinco de Mayo. I didn't put the picture up but I came home from work and Brad grilled some chicken and we have grilled chicken tacos and I made virgin strawberry daiquiri's, so yummy! The other day I really wanted kabob's. I really like sho-yu chicken so we grilled chicken kabobs with onions and mushrooms that marinaded in the sho-yu sauce for a few hours. When they were almost done we grilled the tortillas and threw it all together. It was so good and not too bad for us.

By the time we ate we had 2 flour tortillas and a chicken breast with vegi's! We love grilling and are so happy it's semi grilling weather!
If you have anymore fun grilling ideas let me know!! We're up to any challenge..

Last but not least my favorite of all. When I have more time in the morning, I like to mix up my Slimfast. (I've been drinking slimfast forever, it's my favorite thing to have in the morning) I always keep frozen berries in my freezer. Schwan's sells a mixed bag that has Blackberries, Blue Berries, and Raspberries. I also always keep another bag of blueberries, but because I really like them. So I put my normal slimfast in the blender and throw in about a cup of berries, and it's this wonderful chocolate berry shake.. I highly suggest trying it those slimfast lovers out there.

Mmm your slimfast berry shake looks super yummy. I will have to try that. Also talking about shoyu chicken made me want some. I am going to make it in stir fry this week. Mostly though I am excited to come and not have to pick out dinners for a few days!

Looks like GOOD EATS! I'll send you some of my favorite marinades and rubs for London Broil & Tri Tip. I also like grilled italian squash and grilled asparagus. Grilled portabello mushrooms or grilled tomatos are also yummy sides to serve with any meat from the grill.

Yummy!!! We just don't grill very much here. I need to look into getting a bigger Foreman grill I think. Your shake sounds good too. I used to buy those berries from Schwan's all the time. I would eat them with my cottage cheese. ;)
