My Kind of Taco Salad

Posted on February 18, 2010 | 16 Comments

Thank you for all of the great comments about The China Study!

It was fun to “hear” what others think about this matter. I appreciated all of your honest opinions.

On to dinner time……..

These three items were my inspiration behind my version of Taco Salad:

First I made a fabulous salad with lots of fixins:

There is lots of love in that baby…….

Then I warmed up the beans with the corn in a saucepan.

Microwaved the brown rice.

Chopped up the avocado:

Nothing says, “Taco Salad” more than cheese in my opinion:

I prefer the goat over the yellow kind.

All together now with some hot sauce on top:

Super good!

Happy Thursday………

Any fun weekend plans yet?

Antioxidants

So I have battled the case of the “icks.”  Can’t seem to beat the achy, tired, throat thing.

With that in mind I started my day with a carrot juice inspired smoothie and my favorite Tazo tea:

I also decided to dig into my supplement cabinet for an extra boost:

Has anyone tried these babies?  They give you quite a boost which I needed today!

Had a wonderful salad beast for lunch (inspired by the Ftnessista!):

It was delicious and followed by my home made vegan energy bar:

So in my effort to

  1. welcome in the long weekend
  2. get rid of this cold

I decided to have one of these after work:

You know red wine is supposed to have antioxidants!

I just had to have a glass……or two.

So by the time I got home I was not in the mood to cook for one.

Instead I made a green monster:

And am looking forward to my new reading material:

Tomorrow Pepsi and I are headed to Orange County to meet up with my parents for the day.

We have four glorious days off!

Are you off for the Presidents day holiday?
