I had such a great run! I’m trying to increase my miles because I signed up for a half marathon in Springfield in April with my friend over at fitrunningmama. She’s a great motivator for me & pushes me a bit to get me going. I don’t think she’s aware of it, but I’ve got a little bit of competiteveness in me (just a little), so I usually succumb to her suggestions. Thanks Laura! Anyway, it was supposed to be a virtual 5k for the 13 in 2013 challenge. I’ve signed up for, but got excited & ran a wee bit extra! I love a challenge!
I have to share some great recipes that I made the past couple days. However, I am not so great at the picture taking, so I apologize for any pics that are missing.
Friday night I made these sweet potato zucchini patties. They were seriously delicious. I actually made a lot & didn’t have the room in my oven for 4 sheets of patties, so I decided to bake the last 1/2 of the batter in a 9×12 pan like a casserole. It was much easier & almost as good. However, I do like the crispiness/burnt edges of the patties. I ddin’t, but you could easily put hummos or salsa over them to give them that little “extra”. I’m thrilled we have so much leftover because it’ll be so great for lunch this week.
I added extra chili powder to the top for extra flavor!
Along with those I made this roasted cauliflower.
I was on a new recipe rampage & everything was really great. I also made this chicken coconut curry soup! Well, I did forget to take pictures & made a few swaps, but I’ll be making again very soon because everyone liked it, so I’ll be sure to get it right next time!
This Kalamata olive & herb socca with roasted vegetables is also another new recipe for our house. It’s so good! I’ve got some more ideas on how to make this a little different next time as well.
I seriously couldn’t cook without Pinterest anymore. Sometime I wish I could stay home & just cook everything on my boards. I’m so grateful to have discovered this amazing site!
