I have been too busy and social to take pictures of a healthy meal everyday. But, I have gotten quite a few pictures of things I made recently. Pictured below you can see a picture of an Avocado Lime salsa I made following the recipe from Cooking Light.
With this recipe you are also supposed to make flank steak tacos. I am usually not a big fan of steak, or red meat in general, but flank steak is my favorite. And this flank steak with the avocado lime salsa and a bit of 2% sharp cheddar cheese, I was in heaven. Mike requested that this meal go in normal rotation.My friend Amanda made Avocado with Shrimp Salad for our Harry Potter Night (where our mission is to watch all the movies before the new one comes out, especially since Amanda and I had not seen any of them before). We had leftovers actually that she graciously let us keep and I had this the night after. It was VERY tasty to me.
Mike brought home a rotteserie turkey for the Harry Potter Night as well. We have been eating leftovers from it all week. This was the obvious, yet simple way I went about using it on Monday night.Tonight I actually had a night alone. This is quite the rarity. I was starving by the time I knew I had to eat dinner so I kept it light and simple. This is an english muffin, with one egg, and some 2% american cheese.
Another reason why I kept this meal light was because I knew I would be trying out my new EA Action Sports Wii Game shortly after. I gave it a try about 20 minutes after dinner and let me tell you, it kicks your butt! I started this 30 day challenge, which I thought set you up for about 20 minutes per day. That turned into 30 minutes or so. It had me do running in place, high kicks, lunges, squats, kick boxing moves, in-line skating, and some other arm and back exercises. It was a lot of fun so far, and taught me how to do the moves right. It took me longer than I expected because I didn't factor in the time it would take for me to watch the videos explaining how to do what they were asking. An hour later, my hair is still wet from sweating so hard. I can't wait to use it more!
Do any of you have fun weekend plans? I am planning to go to Enchiladas Y Mas after work tomorrow, and then watch Harry Potter at Amanda's place with a few people. On Saturday I am going to sit with Teddy while she gets some work done on her back. On Sunday I am going to a Volleyball party, where we will sit by the pool, and play volleyball. I am pretty horrible at volleyball, but I am sure I will still give it my all.

is the new active life very similar to the other one? It looked like it was pretty much the same thing. Wish my AC worked so I could play it more.
