Dr. Praeger's....yum.

Today I was trying to recover from the weekend. I probably wasn't as good as I should have been- but hey, we do what we can right??

To clean up my diet today for breakfast I had:
1 apple
1 prickly pear- it was my first time trying this and I did not like it all! What a pain in the butt fruit!....That's just my opinion.

For lunch I made a salad with:
Romaine
Pea Sprouts
Sun Dried tomatoes
Cucumber
Fennel
Celery
balsamic vin and olive oil dressing

All of which I already had in my fridge. I made this salad in 5 minutes this morning. (except for the oil and vin- I stole that from the salad bar at the place I get my fruit from!)

Because I haven't done too much grocery shopping and I am going to yoga and won't get home until 9 for dinner I am making Dr. Praeger's veggie burgers. They are SOOO good and such a great thing to have on hand in the freezer.

They are least processed veggie burgers I have found and consist mostly of- what do you know...veggies! They have many different types including Gluten Free. (I prefer the Tex Mex kind)

I usually microwave them for a minute and then stick them under the broiler for another couple of minutes, just until they are warm and browned. Meanwhile I make a salad and I have a whole meal in less than 10 minutes. Luke even likes them!! He puts them in a wrap with avocado, tomato, lettuce and hot sauce.

There you have it: I will spend less than 15 minutes preparing food today.

Beauty tip: For a homemade moisturizing and soothing skin mask for all skin types take 2 egg whites, separated from the yolk and place in a bowl with 2 tablespoons of plain yogurt (I like Greek yogurt- but do not use flavored yogurt) Mix them together and apply to face for a few mins.
