And the time is flyin'!

Finally, a minute to blog about just a few of the things I have created/eaten/thought about over the last few weeks! I need to get back on the ball with blogging on a semi-regular basis! At my last appointment with my nutritionist, she recommended that I try reading Eating Well magazine. I checked it out at Borders one friday night, and I decided to purchase not only that issue but the current issue of Clean Eating magazine as well. Needless to say, I feel like I will never have the time to try all of these recipes! These magazines are really, really excellent. Both focus around the idea of "clean eating"- or consuming foods with the least amount of ingredients as possible. Each issue comes jam packed with so many recipes, which all look delicious. They also have some great articles on a variety of different topics, which are all pretty interesting. I am considering getting a subscription to Eating Well, because they have this deal where you buy a year's subscription for $14.97 and then you can give one to someone for FREE!!! Here's the link to the website:

Check' em out! Naturally I decided to make something delicious for the boyfriend for our date night two weeks ago. I sent him a text with 3 options from the magazine, and then I made his first choice- Buffalo Chicken Casserole.  Here's some photos:

The chicken, celery, carrots and other stuff...

All ready to go in the oven...with blue cheese sprinkled on top.

After 45 minutes in the oven...bubbling and ready to eat!!

BF stamp of approval...great success! Isn't he cute?

 

 

 

I made the dish title a link in case anyone wants to try it- it was really, really good. Only 2 mistakes I made were using ziti noodles (I couldn't find a whole wheat elbow noodle that I deemed acceptable), and I didn't use enough hot sauce. But it was still good and I had lots of leftovers to last me for the rest of the week!!!!

I love, love, love these recipes. I have been messing around with bread recipes lately, hopefully I will have some pictures up soon. I'm already starting to brainstorm for Thanksgiving. Yesterday I bought a Pillsbury Thanksgiving recipe magazine, and I'm trying to make over some of the recipes, because most of them look delicious, but I would like to still fit in my pants after the Holidays are over!

Until next time!
