Acorn squash stuffed w quinoa

Acorn squash is great. You can stuff it w anything and it will taste good. Cut the acorn in half and scoop the seeds out. Put some butter and brown sugar on the flesh of acorn. Face down on a baking sheet and bake at 350 for 30 min. While that's going get together what ever ingredients you want your stuffing to be. I used quinoa, onion, celery & mushrooms. Sauté the veggies then add quinoa w cranberries and walnuts. Fill acorns then bake for an additional 30 min. Salt and pepper to taste. It's really good. You can fill it with whatever you like. I'm just really loving quinoa right now.

Pokey Rachel and I just did this! 

21 Day Sugar Detox

Monday after Super Bowl some friends and I started this detox. I was nervous, excited, anxious and scared. I didn't know what to expect. It went well.  I are a lot like this. No sugar meant no bread or processed foods. I lost 9lbs. It felt good. It did change my way of thinking about sweets. I don't crave them. I guess that was the point lol.  I'm glad it's over but I've been following the diet for the most part. 

Is your fridge a garden or a morgue?

Pokey and I love to grocery shop. It's what we do lol. I really love that he is cool w the fact that I'm not eating meat and don't care for it in the house. I feel it take up space and why do that when I can put veggies in its place!  First shelf: almond milk, black berries, cilantro, cherries, yogurt (his) apple sauce that my momma brought over for Angie's kids. I need to give that to her. And BEER!!! Bobby gave it to Pokey  Second shelf: Salad stuff. Spinach, spring mix, feta cheese, avocado and tomatoes  Third shelf: Green grapes, mushrooms and corn. HEB 5 for $1  Fourth shelf: Eggplant (Pokey's) red grapes, watermelon and cauliflower. Pickled jalapeño. Pokeys choice. Not mine "/   Vegetable drawer: Bell pepper, tomato, broccoli, cucumbers, poblano pepper and small red orange and yellow peppers  Counter: FRUIT!!!
