©2013ItsAbbyTime[/caption]I am trying so hard to make healthier meals at home. Honestly it's a pain in the ass when you're struggling to eat something healthy even though it's so delicious. I love the healthy meals that I make, but sometimes I just want something super greasy and crispy.
Pasta dinner last week
This whole dish is vegan-friendly. I wanted to try a recipe that I found online, but I forgot to save it on my phone. If this is similar to your recipe please let me know so that I can give you credit for it.
This dish is mainly made with garlic, lime, and fettuccine. I added grilled asparagus and soy Italian sausage.
It was yummy and a much healthier alternative than having to go to Macaroni Grill and order something that was +900 calories. I can't even believe how many calories one dish is. It's insane! I want to start jotting down the food that I make and post it here. I think I want to do a weekly update on the meals that I eat throughout the week. I think I'll call it Abby's Good Eats and that's obviously off of Good Eats on Food Network. Except I would have to say that show is a lot more informative than what my future posts may entail. If anything I'll even add the actual recipe to my recipes once I get the chance to sit down and just write about it.
I wasn't sure if any of you knew that I have two recipe's on there right now. For some vegan Siopao and vegan Thai Iced Tea. You should check it out! I'm still looking on expanding my blog once I figure out what my main goal is with my site.

©2013ItsAbbyTime[/caption]I love eating healthy because it has a ton of benefit and whoever said that healthy food taste's like shit has not had real good healthy meals. I used to have that mentality that healthy food was going to taste disgusting, but I slowly learned to enjoy my veggies like an adult and I even want more! My favorite has got to be asparagus. It's delicious and so easy to cook.I prefer grilling them or just heating them up on a pan and drizzling it with lemon and a little pepper. They go great for almost any dish. I know I can't continue to eat pasta everyday, but I think that the next time I make pasta I'm going to substitute it with whole wheat or gluten-free.
A step into the right direction! Now I have to make sure to stick with it and not fall into eating crap again.
my trick to stick to clean eating was to not eat any of the junk/fatty stuff at all in order to develop the discipline. then months passed and i never felt like eating the bad stuff because i started seeing amazing results from eating the good stuff... so problem solved! :D
ReplyDelete@kathy @ vodka and soda: I am going to take my time this weekend to make myself a shopping list and take out all the junk that we do not need at home. I figure if I don't have it at home then I would not be looking for it, lol. I am still slowly working on my diet, but so far so good ! :) I now have to give up beer cause that's the biggest no no in my diet!
ReplyDeleteTotally understand what you mean about just wanting something indulgent and greasy. I say if you can eat relatively healthy 80-90% of the time, a little indulgence doesn't hurt anyone :).
ReplyDelete@lisacng @ expandng.com: I have to try eating healthier. Today I completely indulged in a hotdog that I probably shouldn’t have! haha.
