Food, glorious food!

Thanks for all of the Blogiversary wishes yesterday! I had a fabulous day followed by an evening of fun with friends! We went for a run, then stopped at our favorite Thursday night restaurant for dinner!

FroYo! It was oh so good! :0)

Wednesday, I posted a picture of my dinner creation on facebook and a friend of mine asked why….why do I post pictures of my food on the internet? Good question! Well, as long as I can remember, I’ve always taken a picture of my food – especially if it’s food I really enjoy, or it’s reaaaally pretty!!

I looked back in my phone and sure enough – I have a ton of pictures of my food!!

Homemade Whole Grain Zucchinin Bread with Homemade Strawberry Chia Seed Jam! (Also a banana and coffee!) I used Pure Maple Syrup in place of sugar in my jam.

Pineapple Salsa over Asian Marinated Grilled Chicken and Spaghetti Squash! (The marinated chicken was my own recipe – I took the pineapple salsa and adapted it to fit with our dinner.)

Because I’m not good ALL the time – we ate out for lunch at my favorite homemade plate lunch restaurant! A southern girl loves her rice and gravy, ok? :0)

Quinoa Stuffed Bell Peppers – oh my goodness so yummy! (Vegetarian) Instead of celery (cause I didn’t have any), I used spinach and in place of red peppers (again, I didn’t have any), I used green!

I have many more but I won’t bore you! :0) 
What’s your favorite food/recipe? Please share!
Have a fabulous Friday!
