I have no internet on the train this morning – it happens! So I am blogging from my phone – so this is going to be the shortest post evah!
Chia pudding was breakfast – I made it on Sunday so it was so thick – love. The trick is to stir it every morning and every night, otherwise the seeds fall to the bottom of the jar. After 48 hours you won’t have to do that anymore.
I worked through lunch – I had basically two days worth of work to do. I had the leftovers from my lunch with my Mom – counted it as 10 points because of the noodles and peanuts.
Xxx
Right when I was about to leave I could feel my blood sugar dropping – luckily I had my fruit bowl at work and grabbed a banana for the train ride home.
While it’s sad that it’s dark out by 5, Chicago is a beautiful city 🤩
I had pork chops and and deli rings on my menu. I love this grunt rub from Code 3 Spices – I used it in both the batter for the delicata rings and on my pork chop.
Once the pork chop was out, I added 1/4 cup chicken broth that was mixed with 1/2 teaspoon cornstarch, scraping the bottom of the pan to get all the little bits from the pan. Then added a tablespoon of Greek yogurt – the pan sauce was kind of like a stroganoff sauce – mushrooms would have been a good addition!
Cooking Club is tonight! I am head chef and I am a bit nervous about my dish – stay tuned for stories tonight!
Happy Thursday – make it a great day!
I am doing cartwheel over here because I can’t wait to see all of the creative and delicious recipes from cooking club. I now know for sure that I would not like the chia pudding. Although it looks pretty I was afraid the “slimy” seeds would turn me off. I tried the Starbucks drink Witches brew and couldn’t drink it. Got a mouth full of chia seeds and almost tossed my cookies. I have to stick to sprinkling them on my toast etc. and leave those puppies crunchy. This is such a pretty plate of food.
Ha, yep, I think the texture gets some people. I can’t wait to share the recipes!
