Dinner
I did a terrible job meal planning this week, so I just winged it with dinner last night. I ended up finding a packet of Knorr Four Cheese sauce mix in one of our cabinets, so I incorporated it into dinner. It called for milk, but we only had vanilla-flavored soy milk, so I used Greek yogurt + water to make the cheese sauce. It actually turned out really well””thick and creamy!
I mixed the cheese sauce with whole wheat pasta and roasted broccoli. Dinner done.
Breakfast
This morning’s breakfast was scrambled eggs with leftover roasted broccoli and crumbled feta and a glass of iced coffee with a splash of eggnog.
