Avocado-Egg Breakfast Sandwich
Eh. I love avocado toast. I just don’t like avocado with asparagus. I ended up removing the asparagus from the sandwich and wished that I hadn’t spread on mustard as directed. Can’t go wrong with avocado and eggs.
Italian-Style Fried Farro
Charlie-😕Me-😕 I was excited about this dish. I love crispy Brussels sprouts and I wanted to try farro. But this preparation was disappointing. There was no seasoning called for in the recipe and I just added pepper since prosciutto was in the dish. Speaking of the prosciutto, frying it in this style makes it hard…
Walnut-Rosemary Crusted Salmon
Charlie-😕Me-😕 Here are my brain thoughts. The recipe didn’t call for any seasoning on the fish or in the breading mixture. If I know one thing, it’s that it’s best to season every aspect of a breaded dish. Also the sauce that adhere the breading to the fish is essentially a honey mustard with garlic,…
Mediterranean-Twist Salmon
I made this this past Sunday instead of the Greek marinated chicken as originally planned. We postponed the chicken until my boyfriend’s new work schedule starts so he can be the grill master. Boyfriend-🙂🙂Me-🙂🙂 This one by far, one of the best dishes that I’ve made in a long time. I loved the sauce that…
Spinach, Scallop and Quinoa Salad with Orange-Poppyseed Dressing
Yum! I loved this.Me- 🙂Boyfriend- 😕 We both loved the scallops and the dressing. Thankfully the dressing stays for about a month in the fridge so I’m looking forward to using it again. While the quinoa was good, it didn’t feel like it had enough carbs to keep me satiated, as I will probably have…

Almond and Date Smoothie
I was excited for this smoothie, but it’s not my favorite. The dates didn’t completely blend, which could be my blender’s fault, but it left large chunks of date. Not a pleasant experience if you’re a texture eater like me. I topped it with some cinnamon for funsies.
Shrimp Salad with Creamy Mint Dressing
The original recipe called for the dressing to be a Creamy Dill Dressing, but I’m not a super big fan of dill so used mint instead. Other than that, I pretty much kept the recipe the same. I would recommend including some sort of carb along with the salad, since I don’t feel like I…
Zucchini and Tomato Frittata
Yum, yum, yum. I love frittata’s and this one was more filling than I had anticipated. Frittata’s are wonderful breakfasts for me since I don’t always have time to cook in the morning and I’m not a fan of cereal. This one includes zucchini, tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, and walnuts. I thought the walnuts were out…
