Another day, another omelet




Today was a pretty typical eating day for a Sunday spent mostly at home, so here's what went down.

Breakfast was a 3-egg (1 whole + 2 whites) omelet stuffed with spinach, sauteed mushrooms and red onion, sharp cheddar and feta, and fresh tomatoes. Lucy had a pre-run wheat bagel with cream cheese and a banana.

Lunch was whole wheat orzo topped with barely sauteed fresh spinach in garlic oil, lots of freshly grated parmesan, and a few fresh tomatoes. Mine was also topped with a leftover grilled pork cutlet, and Lucy's with a Quorn (fake) chik'n patty. It was good, but needed a little something more---not sure what. Maybe just cooking the orzo in broth rather than water would have provided what I was looking for.

Dinner was stuffed peppers. The stuffing was a cumin-seasoned mixture of the leftover orzo, vegetable broth, Ro-tel, black beans, shoepeg corn, a little parmesan and some soy cheddar/mozzarella/jack mixture. And a side serving of roasted beets---more about that another day.

Snacks today were dry-roasted chickpeas, more roasted beets, and a Skinny Cow dulce de leche ice cream cup. Oh, and a chocolate chip oatmeal cookie. It's good to have teenage girls around who like to bake cookies on the spur of the moment.
