Garlic Stir Fry

Garlic Stir Fry Recipe:

Garlic Lovers Welcome

Ingredients:

(You can really use any vegetables you want but this is what I used)

-1/2 zucchini

-1 onion

-1 cup chopped mushrooms

-2-3 TBPs Jarred crushed garlic

Steps:

-Chop everything up

-Place in pan sprayed with PAM

-cook on medium heat until it tastes good to you.

It's that easy, great for a quick but healthy dinner! It's probably better the day after when the garlic soaks in.

Day 2

Ok so its technically day 3 but not for this blog.

Still Kickin'

Today has been good, I didn't quite make it up to my calorie goal but it's only 4:40 right now so who knows. The main reason I didn't is that I was going to have quinoa thats been sitting in the fridge with dinner, but when I dug it out from the back I saw the dreaded and disgusting MOLD. Gah I'm trying to be healthy and bacteria is getting in my way YUCK. I did have a nice dinner, I may post a recipe even though it's just throwing things together in a pan!

Ok so here's what I ate:

B- 1 cup golden grahams, 1/2 cup skim milk, banana
MS- 1 cup blueberries
L-Salad(lettuce, tomato, peas, avocado, balsamic dressing), Boca spicy chicken patty.
AS- 1 cup non fat vanilla yogurt
