I have to confess, I've already gotten bored with this blog. It's just pretty damn tiresome documenting what I eat all the time.
If you want to see recipe ideas, head over to pinterest. There's a ton there and I have 3 different recipe boards right now: paleo, low cal/healthy options, and not so good for you but very good looking recipes.

I intend to try to make more of an effort to post comments on pins for things I have made. If for no other reason, this should help me keep better track of what I have tried and what I haven't.

Peanut Butter Cup Smoothie
I can't find the pin I originally saw for this recipe but I know it's out there on a multiple smoothie pin.
You make this with: 8 oz of almond milk, 1 scoop chocolate protein powder, one spoonful of peanut butter, and one banana. You can personalize this to your own taste but this is how I made it and it was wonderful!!!

Chicken and Mushrooms in Wine Sauce
This is one of the better recipes I've made in a while.

I couldn't find any exotic mushroom blends when I went to the store so I chose some shitake, oyster, and enoki mushrooms. I don't know if you're supposed to cut the stems off shitakes but I usually do because they are so tough. I forgot to this time so that was a minor issue in the eating. I have never used enoki mushrooms before so I didn't know what to expect. Basically, when you cook them, they turn into this hair-like substance which looks kind of unappetizing but tastes very good! The other problem I had (I do this all the time) was I let the pan get too hot and most of the breading came off the chicken and ended up charred to the bottom of the pan. Despite all this, I thought this turned out really well and was very delicious. This is something I would feel good about serving to guests and it really didn't take much time to prep and cook.
