Sorry for the missing post yesterday, I was busy until my head hit the pillow!  I started the day with a big bowl  of fiber cereal with tons of fruit.

For lunch I made a veggie sandwich with hummus on sprouted wheat bread.  I missed the pic because I was inhaling it before running outside for recess duty.  I forgot to take my usual 3pm snack to school and I came home really hungry.  I had a PB Larabar to hold me over until our dinner guests arrived!  I also hit the elliptical for quick 30 min. exercise fix.  It wasn’t a great workout, but it wasn’t bad and it made me feel better.

John and Ashley arrived for dinner around 7:30!  We were hoping to enjoy dinner and drinks on the deck, but the hot, sticky weather kept us in with the air (it was a good decision because it ended up storming all night).  We had simple appetizers of hummus/veggies and chips/salsa.  Brady took a few pics, but they aren’t very appetizing and we all know what those things look like, so I will leave them off! 🙂

Dinner was grilled chicken marinated in Trader Joe’s Black Pepper sauce.  The sauce was ok, not one of my favorites.

We served the chicken with the tomato-mozzarella wheat bulgar salad I made last weekend.  Brady was not here to try it last weekend, and Ash is a frequent blogland reader and wanted to try the bulgar too.  I have to say, I really enjoy this simple dish!  It’s chewy and natural tasting but has great flavor!

We also had tons of grilled veggies!

For dessert, Ash brought a frozen yogurt I had not tried: Edy’s Berry Granola Fro Yo.  It was wonderful!  We added tons of fruit to our bowls, plus AB and sugar-free choc. syrup!  I ate it so fast, there was not time for a picture, whoops!!
