[029] Bat Sugar Cookies and Baked Bean Burritos

Guess who has been pretty busy with work lately? Me! Halloween had me busy baking sweet treats for my boyfriend and co-workers. I like to spoil the tummies around me. I baked up a batch of sugar cookies which I cut into the shape of bats. I also baked two batches of pumpkin cookies.

Tonights dinner:
Cubed Yukon gold potatoes seasoned with onion powder, paprika, sea salt, red pepper corns, and cooked in vegetable oil.
Sliced zuchinni grilled in olive oil and seasoned with sea salt.
A small serving of vegetarian baked beans.

I had been wanting some baked beans all day. I recently used left over veg baked beans in some burritos I made. Their sweet taste is far superior to refried beans.

[028] Lasagna in meatless form

Vegging for Health... more like, VEGGING FOR AWESOME.


Tonight's dinner: Vegetarian Lasagna (Chicken Lasagna for Shawno).

Vegetarian Lasagna

The vegetarian lasagna contains the following ingredients:
-eggplant
-zucchini
-tomatoes
-onions
-garlic and herb pasta sauce
-oven ready lasagna
-ricotta cheese
-mozzarella
-parmesan
-eggs
-basil

Originally I had wanted to place slices of eggplant and zucchini in layers. I changed my mind half way through prep work because I was cooking both lasagnas in the same pan.

Chicken Lasagna

The chicken lasagna contains the following ingredients:
-chicken
-onions
-garlic and herb pasta sauce
-oven ready lasagna
-ricotta cheese
-mozzarella
-parmesan
-eggs
-basil

Shawno cooked his chicken in a pan first then chopped them up really small. As he put it, "I know you asians like to chop things up really small when you cook things." Hahaha, I love him. While we were eating he said he forgot his lasagna had chicken in it. Although he could taste the flavor, he couldn't feel the chunks of chicken.

[027] Grocery Day is a very dangerous day

It's almost grocery day.

I haven't bought vegetables in a while. Nothing fresh anyway. (Potatoes excluded.) It seems like every time I buy them, I'll eat half of what I bought and the rest goes bad. That's usually the leafy greens. I try not to eat all the veggies rapid fire after buying them. I'd prefer they last longer than a few days worth of lunch and dinners. Maybe I'll have to start eating more leftovers than I prefer.

Oh well.

I want to make biscuits again. Bat shaped ones! I have this bat shaped cookie cutter that I still haven't gotten the chance to use. Bat as in animal/vampires. Not bat as in baseball.
