Day 22

chipotle chicken and rice


stuffed yellow squash


First of all Happy Father's Day to my wonderful husband Jason and all the other dads out there. We had a yummy lunch today at my sister's - grilled bison, fish and veggies, potato salad (made with olive oil), green salad, brown rice and fruit salad. We enjoyed a wonderful lunch outside listening to the children play as a cool breeze floated in the air. We didn't want a big dinner tonight so I steamed yellow squash and stuffed it with sauteed onion, garlic, celery, purple cabbage, walnuts and oatmeal. The oatmeal was "recycled" - the baby had a little rash tonight so I made him a moisturizing oatmeal bath. Well I soaked the oats in very hot water for a few minutes and then strained the "milk" into his bath. I was left with soft oatmeal but not really cooked. So I decided to toss it into dinner and it turned out great. Oh and I drizzled the squash with olive oil and soy sauce. I am going to try different combos as we will have yellow squash all summer long. Last week we also made chipotle chicken and rice a Martha Stewart recipe... it had a lot of kick from the chilies but it was worth the heat!
