Ben and Jerry's

My husband wants some Ben and Jerry's . I am secretly hoping he goes and gets it.  Although I would like to have my coffee heath bar crunch I will settle for his super fudge chunk. Tonight I made dinner quick. I prepared some sorta fried chicken breast with broccoli. It was surprisingly tasty for putting it together on a whim with no recipe. Just my cooker skills.  At work today some of the ladies had cake and they were trying to make me jealous with the description of the icing. It honestly didn't work.  I don't remember what icing tastes like since its been at least 6 months since I have had it. Plus there is also a pretty good chance I will get sick from it and who wants to be sick. I ate my broccoli and I was perfectly happy with that.  Exercising is really what I need to do. I think I have been spoiled with the first 55 just melting off with diet alone. WAAAH I hate exercising. So I read the second book in the hunger games trilogy. I wish these books were longer. On to the very last one. 

To make this fried chicken simply put some coconut flour in a bowl and add whatever seasonings you want. Drench the chicken in eggs and coat the chicken . Put some olive oil in a pan and fry it up.

Steam some Broccoli. Dinner in 15 minutes.  You have the time.

Here is a Pic of the cutest Puppy I know and his name is Maynard Waynard ( not really, its Maynard Ludwig Von Mises but I like to sing a song to him where I call him Maynard Waynard) 

FYI Maynard is still primal and he never cheats.

Zucchini Egg Bake

Tonight I made zucchini egg bake. This is recipe from the Primal blueprint cookbook. Its very good and very filling and pretty easy to make as well.  Tonight is the Bachelorette so I better write this quick! I am also in the process of reading the second hunger games book and I have been having dreams about poisonous spit and people trying to kill me. I guess they are nightmares but I like it so does that mean its a dream and not a nightmare? 

Zucchini Egg Bake
1 pound of zucchini
1/2 pound sausage
4 tbsp butter
 1/2 cup onion
3 eggs 
Parmesan cheese

Directions 
Preheat oven to 350 degrees . Put butter and onions in the pan and fry them up until tender, add shredded zucchini and cook for 7 minutes until soft. Drain excess water from zucchini , set aside. Brown sausage in the pan, once cooked add the zucchini back in with the meat and season. I use a little salt, pepper, garlic powder and Italian seasonings.  Once that's mixed up add three beaten eggs to the zucchini and sausage mix. Pour into an 8x8 pan and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Cook uncovered for 35-40 mins. Tastes good cold or reheated !

Spaghetti Squash and Snowcones

Happy Mother's Day! I received a sterling silver pearl ring and a Mom picture frame and I am told there is a candle waiting for me. I did however , have to do all the cooking , cleaning and laundry today. I also had to help the youngest do her state in a box project. It wasn't very relaxing at all. My husband played golf , and watched a golf tournament all day. He was also served lunch and dinner and dessert while he watched the TV. I think we should switch... on Father's Day he can take care of me.  Today I made spaghetti squash spaghetti and I told the kids to try it and if they didn't like it , I would make them regular noodles ( I have a few items in the cupboard I didn't throw out in case non primal folks came over) They did ask for the regular noodles before they even tried these ! I told them no they could eat the spaghetti squash if I could. It was really good ! My middle daughter loved my sauce. Everyone finished their dinner. I am attributing this to the fact it was good because I did feed them all lunch today.

They have been bugging me for snow cones for the last month so I decided to let them have one for dessert.

NOT PRIMAL - DO NOT ATTEMPT TO EAT THESE !
