@ChefMom: Vegetarian [mis]adventure…
To get you caught up:
Day 2 of our vegetarian adventure I had chicken taquitos for dinner. It was one of those rare fend-for-yourselves nights. And technically I wasn’t ready for whole hog vegetarian, right? Right.
Day 3 of our vegetarian adventure we had Chick-Fil-A. Yes, I know. Lest you think I’m failing miserably at this so far, let me direct you to…
Day 4 of our vegetarian adventure… I had steak. See?! I can fail worse! It was good, too.
Day 5 of our vegetarian adventure we had a chicken/veggie stir fry with funny little pastas. I didn’t eat the chicken. It was okay. Simple, fast, bland, boring… but healthy. Everyone was satisfied except me. My palate doesn’t like boring. I need to get my menu plan and shopping list together so I can make more interesting fare.
Day 6 of our vegetarian adventure was pizza night. So much for planning and shopping. I’m on a tight work deadline and my kids all had dental appointments right after school. Even getting dinner made was too much of a challenge. I had a big salad (with bacon bits, I confess – the shame, the shame) and one large slice of cheese pizza.
