What I Ate Wednesday v8.0- Food Fail
Hey gang! It's Wednesday and time for a food recap. Sadly today was an epic food fail. :(
But it didn't start out so bad...730am - Cereal Mash Up- Kashi Go Lean with Fiber 1, chia seeds, unsweetened almond milk, blueberries10am- V8 (highly recommended by my nutrition prof)
1130am - 2 rice cakes with 1 Laughing Cow Light Swiss Wedge
12pm- pear
1pm- Greek salad with leftover rotisserie chicken and a sweet potato. I found this great lettuce mix called Organic Girl SuperGreens that I've been loving. Spinach, red & green swiss chard, tat soi (what's that?), arugula, and spinach. It has a bright flavor and tons o' nutrients!4pm- small bowl of Fiber 1 with almond milk
6pm- I made a delicious batch of carrot cake protein cake! Yum-o! And I nibbled on some sweet batter! Check out the recipe here.7pm- FOOD FAIL!
I had to run to Target this afternoon. Since I was there I figured that I would jazz up my dinner plans. I had been admiring a curry dish Lindsay made on her blog. So I decided to make curry! Only to get to the aisle and see that they were totally out of coconut milk! Wiped clean! There was a run on coconut milk? Apparently.
Once I get my mind set on something I'm pretty much determined. I wanted curry. End of story. They had this "10 minute simmer sauce". It seemed a little watery, but I thought I'd give it a try. I also got some mushrooms and snow peas for my dish.

| stupid sauce |
I sauteed my chicken briefly to give it some texture and followed the directions on the jar. It became a soupy, tasteless pot of yuck. How can a curry sauce have zero spice??? It did!
I was so mad at that sauce that I never even took a pic of the finished products. I ate it, because I'm stubborn like that.
And that's all I'd like to say about that.
Not a very glamorous Wednesday. I'll try to jazz it up next week.
Anyone have a great, easy curry I should try? Catch up on past posts: version one, two, three, four, five, six, seven.
Love and failure,Carissa & Kyle
i've tried a sauce like that with bad luck too :( i think coconut milk is key! and adding extra peppers, even to the hot sauce!
ReplyDeleteI love Super Greens! I've been eating two tubs of them weekly since Publix started to carry it. Great way to get a good mix of greens in.
