Pajamas & Recipes (34)

I ended up feeling quite sick this morning so I went ahead and stayed home. I was resting on & off again all day and feel 70% better now. I dunno, maybe it was just stress & exhaustion? Or maybe I’m fighting off some cold. I’ve had an on & off again sore throat for days. I don’t know. I was just downstairs this morning trying to shack it off so I could get ready for work. I was lying there and thinking, “OK, 30 minutes to get ready, I can make it.” Then 20, then 10, then I realized I wasn’t gonna make it, I felt too awful, haahaa.

While in a semi-dream state I was watching the Bonnie Hunt show and they had some woman there with the book, Hungry Girl. They shared 3 recipes which can be found here. I’m trying them out! I got really excited because the pasta recipe calls for these tofu noodles Mike and I have already been using!! Yea, tofu shirataki noodles!! Extreme low in calories & carbs! They taste great too.

I was going to talk about them anyway but this is a great coincidence! They’re about $1.10 a bag at HMart. We’ve been using them in soups mostly~ my cabbage soup & Mike makes ramen.

We bought the original yam shirataki noodle too but haven’t tried them yet.
