Day 86 - The Whole Enchilada Chicken Soup

Love this soup!  It has a wonderful flavor and is super thick with the pumpkin in it.  I have to admit that this was one of the recipes I made before the book came out; I think it was in an email, but it's still a recipe in the book so it counts!  I have definitely added this recipe to my arsenal of healthy soup recipes and it has been enjoyed by others as well.  I wonder how those leftovers would taste for breakfast.....

Day 85 - Sun-Dried Tomato Tuna Salad

This was a perfect make ahead recipe for a road trip.  I am really loving the flavor of sun-dried tomatoes right now, I could eat them on just about anything.  I ate this salad with a pretza-bagel, but could easily be eaten as sandwich filling or with crackers.  Yummy!

Day 84 - A+ Avocado Burger

Had to finish up some of that avocado....this burger was tasty for a light dinner.  I really do love the way avocado brightens up a dish.  Great flavor and creaminess...yum.

Day 83 - Hawaiian Tuna Salad

Had that leftover pineapple from my smoothie, so I made this quick and easy tuna salad.  I put it on a thin sandwich bun paired with some broccoli slaw for a tasty lunch.  I would make this salad again or use it to inspire some different flavors for protein packed snack or meal.

Day 82 - BLTA Club

Another recipe to use up some avocado....this sandwich was pretty tasty.  The creaminess of the avocado contrasted nicely with the crunch of the bacon.  I'm not a huge raw tomato fan, so I might leave that off in the future.  Pretty good light lunch idea.

Day 81 - Tropical AM Smoothie

I'm not a huge smoothie fan these days.  I never seem to take the time to put them together.  My mom used to make them for us growing up so they always remind me of my childhood.  This one had peach yogurt and frozen banana with pineapple...some great flavors that were really tasty.  It made a good breakfast on the go since we had a car appt in the morning.  I would make it again and probably use it to inspire me to make other flaovrs as well.

Day 80 - BTA (Bacon Tomato Avocado) Egg Mug

So avocados were on sale, so I thought I'd try a few recipes this week that needed them.  This egg mug was delicious and creamy.  I thoroughly enjoyed the flavors.  I still think egg mugs are just fun!

Day 79 - Quiche Me Bacon Tarts

Now this was a fun recipe that I loved!  My husband and neighbors enjoyed them as well.  I have been worried about the recipes that make lots of servings, but I had the ingredients for this one.  The little quiche tarts were soooooo good.  The crescent dough sheets are really easy to use and are super multi-functional.  You could add just about whatever quiche ingredients you wanted to these little cups.  The pepper, onions and bacon went really well together.  I want more just sitting here typing about them.  Yummy!

Day 78 - Hot Dog & Scramble

This recipe was okay; I like all the ingredients, but the end result wasn't earth shattering.  It was pretty easy to make and was a nice filling breakfast.  I'm not sure I will make it again, but that's okay too.

Day 77 - Chicken Fajita Scramble Mug

Love all the egg mugs!  It's fun putting all the ingredients in the mug and finding out the end result.  This egg mug was full of fajitga flavor and perfect for a morning meal.

Day 76 - Cheesy Bean Breakfast Quesadilla

I feel like I'm always playing catch up; summer has taken over my life.  This recipe was another breakfast one since it seems easier for me to eat an HG meal for breakfast rather than waiting til later in the day.  I was also using up more of the leftover refried beans in the fridge.  This quesadilla was a little tricky to make with the small corn tortillas to hold all the filling.  But the flavors were nicely combined to make it creamy on the instead.  I would have liked it to be a little more crisyp on the outside, but it was a good filling breakfast.

Day 75 - Big Bad Breakfast Burrito

This burrito was definitely big; I could barely roll up the tortilla around all the filling!  It was filling and flavorful.  It took a little longer to prepare than some other breakfasts I've made, but the pepper and onion and sausage all gave it a really nice bite.

Day 74 - Classic Club Salad

I am really loving these big flavorful salads.  The flavors in this salad made me feel just like I was eating a club sandwich.  I went through a kick years ago when that was all I would order from any restaurant we would visit.  I also appreciate the homemade salad dressings, it has opened my eyes about making my own dressings in any flavor I want.

Definitely looking forward to eating more of the salad recipes!

Day 73 - Speedy Beany-rito

I needed a small lunch since we were celebrating the 4th of July and I knew we'd probably be having an awesome meal.  Again, using up those beans...this burrito with beans and laughing cow cheese really was actually quite good.  And filling, I know beans can do that...among other things.  I look forward to some more bean recipes coming up. :)

Day 72 - Bean 'n Cheesy Soft Taco in an Egg Mug

So I opened a new can of fat free refried beans for this recipe, knowing that they aren't my favorite and once the can was open I would need to make lots of beany recipes in a row.  This egg mug was definitely better than I expected, it was super creamy and delicious.  I would make it again, and probably will to use up the beans!

Day 71 - Breakfast Scramble Pizza

Seems like this was pretty similar to what I had previously only more yummy goodness topped on the tortilla, tomatoes and cheese, I was surprised how well the pizza combined with the egg beater flavor, it really worked!

Day 70 - Hola Breakfast Tostada

Another delicious breakfast with a crispy tortilla (made on a skillet instead of turning on the oven) topped with egg beaters and cheese and peppers and onions and even bacon.  Really good way to start the day!

Day 69 - BLT Pizza

This was a good meal that could probably be turned into an appetizer as well.  It reminded me of a veggie pizza app that I have made multiple times.  Love the pizza crust combined with creamy ranch sauce topped with BLT.  It made six servings so I ended up eating it for a few days, but I did enjoy it.

Day 68 - Balsamic BBQ Chick Skillet

Another quick meal for one.  The flavor of the barbecue sauce and balsamic vinegar came together surprisingly well.  Quick and simple, I would definitely make this dish again.

Day 67 - Cheesy Pizza Quesadilla

I have to say it, I love pizza.  In any shape or form.  This was super yummy and could probably have any 'toppings' that you'd prefer.  Tortillas are the perfect crust with an awesome filling of cheese sause and pepperoni.  Yummmmmmm!

Day 66 - Crispy Nacho Chicken

This was an easy dinner for one.  Chicken breast, salsa and chips.  It really was a good flavored dish, and perfect for a quick meal.

Day 65 - Buenos Dias Fajitas

Oooh, this breakfast was yummy!  I kept thinking how much my husband would like it.  The turkey sausage and egg made the perfect filling for this dish, add in the veggies and it was soooooo good.  A great start to the day!

Day 64 - Feta 'n Fuji Chicken Salad

Playing major catch-up once again...this salad was delicious!  I loved the creaminess of the feta cheese and honey mustard dressing with the crunch of the apples.  It was a huge salad and very filling!  Enjoyed it a great deal.
