Sushi Substitute

If you're like me, you love sushi, and wish you had money to eat it daily. Well, I have found something to satisfy the sushi craving AND it's easy to make!

Behold "Spicy California Shrimp Stack". Check out the recipe at skinnytaste.com!

I bough shrimp just for this, but then we used imitation crab, and it was just as good. Also, I didn't want to take the time to cook rice, so I used the microwavable "Quinoa & Brown Rice" we got from Sam's Club. So good! Matt doesn't even like cucumbers, but he liked this. We got imitation crab at the store again so I can make it this week. It's quick, easy and oh so yummy!

Back to the Future Day

I've been loving the BTTF posts today. Crazy busy day. I didn't make it to the gym, or get a walk, but I did do 30 squats which was harder than it should've been. Day 1 of the squat challenge. ☺

Dinner was tasty. My husband is a great cook! Salmon with onions, seasoned with ginger, lemon, soy sauce, powdered wasabi, liquid smoke, red pepper, garlic, pepper, salt... sauteed until thick. Olive oil and agave thinnly sprinkled on with sesame seeds and red pepper.
Side of quinoa, chunky tomato sauce (made from previous post), lots of garlic, spicy mustard, onions, celery, dried onions, liquid smoke, pepper, salt, red pepper. So good! He just makes magic. No recipe.

Better than Chuck-a-rama?

My co-workers are going to Chuck-a-rama for lunch. I passed because 1: I brought my own lunch to work. 2: seriously, how much there do you think is low glycemic? I loved Chuck-a-rama as a kid. It's still synonymous to Thanksgiving in my head. I'd not only eat too much, but I think I'd sabotage myself.
So my lunch is leftovers of my recipe experiment of the week. Quinoa-stuffed Squash.
