I've been trying to stick to my plan of shopping less times per week. I've been doing ok but I had to make something up out of my head because I had a package of turkey meat, some veggies but didn't have a recipe. I did end up at the store yesterday but that's because I ran out of salad. All in all, I'm going ok but my plan needs work.
This was delicious. I just some for lunch and the only thing I would add is cayenne pepper. They say as men get older they lose their sense of taste and that is why they frequently use pepper. I must be old. :( Oh well.
