Day four of four on the long weekend is coming to an end. It has been such a great weekend, very relaxing! I am glad this will be a short work week as well. That makes the task of going back to work a little more bearable.
I got up this morning and had some coffee and pumpkin oatmeal. I then went to the gym for a yoga class. It was really a workout today. I was sweating like crazy, I don’t know what the difference was, but it was much needed. When we got home I made cupcakes as I need to take some treats to work this week. I love Halloween and thus I decorated them with a Halloween theme.
For lunch we made some grilled burgers. We used these Amy’s Organic burgers.
These had a great texture to them and a great flavor as well. I think these are my favorite by far. I think it is the brown rice that makes them so good.
Lunch was:
-Organic Rice burger
-Served on a sandwich thin
-Roasted red pepper spread
-Jalapeno Jack cheese slice
-Grilled onion slices
-Lettuce
-Fresh Tomato
On the side we had kale chips. We were a bit leery about trying these, but in all honestly they were really great. They reminded me a bit of roasted brussel sprouts. They were really good dipped in ketchup. Overall it was a perfect end of summer lunch!
For dinner I just made the ever quick Cuban beans and rice.
-1/2 c brown rice
-1 c Cuban beans
-dollop of plain yogurt
-smothered in salsa
Back to normal tomorrow, hope you all enjoyed your long weekend!
