So I whipped up a small pot of creamy tomato soup and on the side I had a small salad with:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Romaine<\/li>\n<li>Spinach<\/li>\n<li>Sunflower seeds<\/li>\n<li>Cranberries<\/li>\n<li>Raisins<\/li>\n<li>Chopped apple<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>All topped with a bit of balsamic vinaigrette.  In the back is the rest of the apple and slice of swiss.  Also a wee bowl of homemade croutons to dip in my soup!  Scott had the classic grilled cheese with his soup. <img src='\/images\/biggrin.gif' alt=':D' \/>  I ate all of my salad, almost all of my soup + a few croutons, the rest of the apple and did not touch the cheese.  There&#8217;s even a wee bit of soup for leftovers.<\/p>\n<p>After lunch is when I did all my prep work for things and that actually took me quite a while.  Scott was dancing around all day because he knew what we were having for supper.  Usually I keep it a surprise and he doesn&#8217;t know what we&#8217;re eating until he sees it on his plate. :p  Dinner was some stuffed banana peppers.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_818\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/10\/ohc-10-08-08-dinner.jpg\" data-rel=\"attachment-image-1\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-818\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-818\" title=\"ohc-10-08-08-dinner\" src=\"http:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/10\/ohc-10-08-08-dinner-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"My plate\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/10\/ohc-10-08-08-dinner-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/10\/ohc-10-08-08-dinner.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-818\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">My plate<\/p><\/div>\n<p>I know you can barely see it but I swear there&#8217;s a pepper in there!  The stuffing was made of:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Jasmine rice<\/li>\n<li>some leftover salsa (about 1\/4 cup)<\/li>\n<li>sauteed red onion, green pepper, jalapeno pepper (in olive oil)<\/li>\n<li>corn<\/li>\n<li>black beans<\/li>\n<li>and some cilantro<\/li>\n<li>S&amp;P, chili powder, and garlic powder<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I poured that over all the peppers that I split and stuck in a casserole dish.  Baked it for a bit and then topped it with cheese.  It was so yummy and just had a hint of spiciness to it.  The side dish was some roasted butternut squash that was drizzled with olive oil, maple syrup, and some S&amp;P.  That was awesome too!<\/p>\n<p>I believe that we are hitting <abbr class='c2c-text-hover' title='Stick Fighting'>SF<\/abbr> class tonight even though we have so much to do.  So I better get moving and get ready.  See you tomorrow guys!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hey guys I was a bit of a busy bee today but not busy enough. Ugh so much to do!
