Breakfast: scrambled eggs with proscuitto, banana
Lunch: leftover spaghetti squash with meat sauce, apple with almond butter
Snack: plantain chips with salsa
Dinner: pot roast (beef in beef broth, onion and rosemary in the crockpot all day - it was ok, but needed more flavor, in my opinion), roasted carrots and...wait for it... BRUSSEL SPROUTS.
I have only had brussel sprouts once before, and today was the first day I've ever prepared them. I'll be honest - they get a bad rap. Cooked the right way, they are delicious. Russ and I agree that they will be added to our repertoire of meals moving forward.
To cook them, cut off the brown tip, slice them in half length-wise, use a touch of olive oil, season 'em up and roast them in the oven at 450 until they get a little crispy (the edges get a little brown).
If you have never tried them, my personal challenge to you is to try them sometime in the next month (prepared the way I mentioned above).
