some recipes to share from the week

So I have been home with just me and my mom this week!  I have been able to cook all week and make the meal plans so I am going to tell you about them.

Monday: Frozen Mahi Mahi.
I wanted to cook it on the grill but my dad had not hooked up the gas before he left so I had to improvise on Chris' george foreman grill.  Let me tell you though about my new favorite sauce for fish or chicken!  Lemon Pepper and Soy sauce.  I put the lemon pepper all over the fish and the plate then pour some soy sauce over it.  Then I heated up two sweet potatoes in the microwave.  On my sweet potato I like to make it  taste good but also keep it healthy.  I add a bit of brown sugar with coconut!  Then I made some fresh green beans with lemon pepper (my favorite vegetable) My mom had about 5 and I ate allll the rest!

Tuesday: Grilled chicken salad with tomato and boiled egg.  I had it with Panera's lemon poppy seed dressing.  I also had a small bowl of cereal! I couldnt resist.  With my diet of oatmeal for breakfast every morning I had been missing out on cereal

Wednesday: Pita Bread Pizza
So I wasn't the biggest fan but my mom loved it.  I just didnt cook it long enough for the crust to harden.  But I had sauteed green bell peppers and mushrooms with garlic to put on the pizza and that along with pizza seasonings and crushed red pepper flakes made the pizza a great taste.  Like I said my mom was a big fan.

Thursday:  I took my mom to a doctors appointment so while I was waiting I ran to whole foods.  I love to just go to whole foods and walk around and find interesting stuff.  This trip I got some fruit, chips, and dinner for the night.  I had grilled chicken with my soy sauce and lemon pepper mixture.  I also had some bread and pasta with spinach.  My mom had spaghetti and meatballs.

Friday: Breakfast for dinner! yum!
I had an omelet on english muffin with turkey sausage and some fruit and carrots!

I just love having a kitchen again.  To be honest I'm really going to miss not having it next year for college.  Cant wait to get an apartment!
