Mrs. Short :)



Coming back to work post wedding was crazy. The project that I am working was going live on July 18th, which meant I worked the weekend. I was still in a slightly off mode, in regards to food, so I didn't really want to bring my own breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Saturday- Breakfast was a bowl of fruit and a avocado egg white sandwich from Panera. For lunch the team had requested Chipotle. So I made a salad with a huge lettuce base, chicken, pinto beans, corn salsa, tomatoes and guacamole. For dinner we were at happy hour and I only snacked on a couple of things. After that, we went to our friends house for a little get together.

Sunday- Back in the office after eating a breakfast sandwich before leaving the house. Lunch was greek food. I made a falafel salad with lettuce, tomato, red onion falafel, tazatki and hummus. I got home from the office and went to pick up my aunt and cousins that were coming into town for a cruise. We went to dinner at Fork and Balls. I was feeling a little indulgent, so I got the Shirt Rib entree. I ate about half of it and it was worth every point!

Monday- Breakfast was iced coffee with some non fat greek yogurt. I had a lunch meeting at work so I had half of a Chinese chicken wrap during that meeting. After work I rushed home because Andy and I were going to see Sam Smith!! We had a quick dinner of some chicken and a cold tomato avocado soup. The soup was incredible, we have been experimenting with soups that are meant to be served cold lately. Sam Smith is incredible live! It was such a great show!
Tuesday- I was feeling exceptionally tired this morning, so I decided I would just eat breakfast in the office. Breakfast was some instant oatmeal and coffee. Lunch was a salad and half a sandwich during a lunch meeting. For dinner Andy made a delicious shrimp, snap pea and radish salad. 

Wednesday- For breakfast I made a breakfast sandwich with an egg and some turkey. I also made iced coffee with milk and a little sugar. Lunch was leftover salad with chicken instead of shrimp, hummus and carrots and a peach. After work I got back into my workout routine, with a session with my personal trainer. For dinner we kept it simple. I roasted some cauliflower, made small salads with chicken on top and we had some more cold tomato avocado soup.

Thursday- Breakfast was an egg and spinach breakfast sandwich. I wish I had also put some tomato on the sandwich! For lunch I made a garden salad with smoked chicken and brought some roasted vegetables. I also brought and apple and iced tea. After work I headed to the gym to get back into my work out routine. After that I went to get a haircut, my hair had been way too long. Then we had Lindsay and Jeremy over for drinks and I stayed up way too late. We snacked on some crackers and cheese, and carrots and hummus

Friday- Breakfast was another egg and spinach breakfast sandwich.  For lunch I got a Thai Chicken Salad. We went over to Megan and David's house for a little get together. Andy and I brought a fruit salad and the infamous bacon mushroom dip that Matt makes. 

Saturday- Saturday started as a lazy day. I got to sleep in which is always fantastic! Then we bummed around the house until we picked up my aunt and cousins from the Port. We took them to the Yellow Green Farmers Market in Hollywood. We got a cold coconut, empanadas and some coffee. It was a short visit before they had to be dropped off at the airport. We then headed back to the house and were lazy bums. We did manage to cook a delicious and healthy dinner. We made quinoa with onions, garlic, sun-dried tomatoes and spinach. In addition to that we made some baked salmon that was marinated with hot sauce, ponzu and hoisin sauce. After dinner we went to pick up some porch furniture from Craigslist. Pics in next weeks post!
Delicious and simple dinner
