Soccer really wore me out today! I can already feel my legs getting a little sore. I’m def still thinking about making a spin class tomorrow night, so hopefully my legs will be OK. After my second game, I got lots of household things done before leaving for Kevin’s to make dinner. We are trying to use up the lasts of our produce/leftovers.

Pictured below is our salad and dinner plates. In the salad: mixed greens, sunflower seeds, feta cheese, and blueberries. I had roasted cauliflower, kabocha squash and chicken fingers! I felt like a kid eating these guys. I even dipped a few bites in ketchup.

If you have never had roasted cauliflower, I strongly recommend that you try it. I tossed the florets in olive oil, salt, and pepper and roasted in a 450 degree oven for about 20 minutes. The roasting brings out a totally different flavor– nutty goodness.

Time for bed! I’m exhausted!

Check out the categories! :)

Dinner was very quick and very random. I heated up some grits, added some cheese, and reheated leftover kabocha squash. On the side was a massive orange.

Score!

Wooo! My soccer team won today! I scored and had an assist! :D On the way home, I made a stop at Sprouts to pick up the produce for the week.

Red peppers, cauliflower, tomatoes, blueberries, pineapple, potatoes, and a red onion.

Fruit bowl for the week!

In the bowl: oranges, honey tangerines, pears, avocados, lime (and leftover apple and kiwi).

Snack for the afternoon was a bowl of fruit. Here is the pineapple prep.

Snack time~

Dinner will be interesting. I’m making my kobocha squash and chicken tenders with apricot/mustard sauce.

I cut him in half and scooped out the seeds like how you do when you carve a pumpkin.

Sliced and then coated with olive oil and a little salt. Baked in the oven for ~30 min @ 400. It turned out great! It’s like a sweet and creamy butternut squash.

Best Monday ever! I had today off and got to spend my morning skiing a third day at Breck. We have been so lucky to have great weather this past weekend. The fresh snow from yesterday/last night was very nice to ski down this morning. Soft and fluffy.

On the Chair lift!

Some of the best things happened in our half day of skiing. The Riperoo Children’s park opened- a trail through the trees with fun things to go over and through-a house, bridges, and tunnels. :) All mini-kid sized. We also hit the terrain park today. I wussed out on the half-pipe, but did do a jump! From the top it looked like a jump onto a level surface. Boy was I wrong. This was a jump to a very short level surface and then straight down! Don’t know how I made it off of that in once piece.

I thought I had made peace with the trees, but once again, the trees won. This time I had two people crash into and over me in the woods! Thank you again, crash helmet, and super fluffy fresh snow for the cushy fall.

I’m not 100% sure where or how, but I have quite a few black and blue bruises! Maybe the snow isn’t as soft as I had thought… :D Totally worth it though!

On the way home, we stopped at Clint’s bakery in downtown Breckenridge. A super cute coffee shop and cafe type place. A coworker used to work there back in the day and said we should check it out. Surprise surprise, I had a cup of coffee and a red velvet cupcake.

Regular eating to resume tomorrow!

Sprouts grocery store produced a few great purchases- kabocha squash and almond butter top the list.
