Ooops, I’m on a pasta kick.  Two nights in a row, but in moderation/portion control.

I’ve always loved the deep purple color of the eggplant.

Breaded Eggplant w/ Spaghetti

• 1 eggplant
• 3/4 c. fine Italian bread crumbs
• 4 tbsp. olive oil
• 1 egg
• 1/4 c. freshly grated Parmesan cheese
• cilantro
• Basil and garlic salt to taste
• Salt and pepper to taste

Cut eggplant in 1/2 inch thick slices; set aside in pan.  Line pan with fresh cilantro. Combine bread crumbs and spices. Dip eggplant in egg, then in bread crumbs. Remove excess and pat slices firmly so they are evenly coated. Layer Parmesan cheese on top of eggplant. Bake at 350 @45 minutes. (If you like  you can add marinara sauce & more cheese).

Spaghetti

• Spaghetti
• Fire roasted sweet red pepper sauce (I think we all know how to make spaghetti)

This sauce was really sweet too, loved it.

Feasting on eggplant with spaghetti and corn.

I loved every bite of this meal.

I started my morning off sleeping in and on purpose.  This girl didn’t get to bed till after 1am.  I woke up and had a large banana and did a workout.  I was pumped up for 45 minutes of The Firm:Total Body Crunch & got to moving my booty.

By the time I finished that workout, I realized it was time to eat lunch.  I was very excited about this Sunday lunch.  I fixed a salad of greens topped with a salmon patty!

• Mixed greens
• salmon patty
• tomatoes
• corn
• feta
• low-fat plain Organic Horizon yogurt

And a cup of fruit on the side

• raspberries
• apple slices

Sea Salmon Saturdays said the Sea Man by the Sea shore!

Now try saying that 10 times really super fast! I’m just in a dorky mood tonight, sorry guys.  For some reason after doing laundry with Chris I got a sudden burst of energy, out of nowhere.  I went crazy in the produce dept. at our local grocery store and was about to have a ‘‘foodgasm” in the dairy.  Finally Oikos is on the shelf again at the grocer I like, b/c it’s usually cheaper there!  So, tonight I give you the delicious Salmon burger I made for the boyfriend and myself with corn on the side.

Smile for me baby!

Now here’s my Oikos I’m proud to have back in the frig!

The Green Tea I was surprised tasted so good

I’m logging off now to watch HgTv (slight obsessed with) and read the two new mags I picked up tonight.  Alicia Silverstone on the cover; I love that Vegan Girl too. Looking forward to read up on her and check out new exercises in Fitness Mag.

Good Night
