Meatless Mondays: Spaghetti Squash and Beets

I'm trying y'all. I'm really not a fan of beets. I looked up a simple recipe and it said olive oil, salt and pepper. Oven at 350 for 30 min. My opinion: still taste like dirt :( they are good for you so I will continue to juice and eat them :) 

I didn't even realize Pokey got a spaghetti squash yesterday. I roasted it along w yellow squash and it was delish. Roasting is so easy for me. 

Side note: I start school tomorrow!!! I'm already and esthetician now I'm getting licensed to do nails. I'm excited to be done w school already "/ I'm not a fan of school. I am a fan of educating myself so I really am excited. I've never worked full time and went to school school full time. Pray for me y'all. 
That's my kit!!! Shit just got real lol.

Jackfruit "beef" Stew

  SATURDAY WITH MY PARENTS! Pokey went fishing and I went grocery shopping. I love to hang out with my family. I love them with my entire heart. I called my mom and asked her if she wanted to join me while I picked up a few things from the store. Of course, she said yes. When I get to my parents she says my dad wants tacos from Cristobal. I'm down because they really have great tacos. I got beans and nopales (cactus) Look how cute my parents are. 43 years in February.  I love that they show love to each other.  We ended up going to HEB and I didn't grab much but I got some acorn squash and some okra.  It was a cold Saturday and I know him being on the water plus the wind I know he would appreciate a warm meal when he came home. My mom in law bought us a Ninja Foodi and I have been intimidated by it for almost a year. This is probably the 4th time I have used it. I had one of those meal cheaters, it was beef stew one where you add meat and some veggies.  I added ...

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. 

Gnocchi and Sauce

Let me start by saying I just wanted peppers and onions and wants a taco. Pokey comes in the kitchen and wanted gnocchi. (Gross) I just can't get behind eating a ball of dough. We really debated in the store behind it. I did not want him to buy it. However I let him slide because it was whole wheat and not enriched. Anywho...  1 bell pepper 1 poblano 1 onion  1 case of mushrooms 3 small yellow an orange peppers.  When he said he wanted gnocchi I added 3 tomatoes and Italian seasoning and garlic (1tsp) When I turned around to text w my sister in law he added... Champagne and Cavendar's Greek seasoning.  He threw in a little balsamic vinegar. I didn't fight him. He knows what he wants. I was no longer getting my tacos "/ Notice the pic above w veggies in a bowl? I kept those on the side while I put the veggies in the pan in the blender then added the remainder veggies back into the pan then simmered everything together. Now I added a little bit of olive oil and tomato ...
