Saturday night I was very hungry, but not feeling up to cooking an elaborate meal. I have been trying to use Saturday to clean-up, regroup, and organize our home so that I can actually rest and Sabbath on Sundays.
I'm also making it a high priority to eat healthy while I'm pregnant & later breastfeeding. I'm trying to keep our diet filled with lean protein, lots of veggies & fruits, whole grain, and plenty of fluids and fiber. :) I hadn't had salmon in while since just walking by the meat & seafood section at the grocery store made me feel ill up until week 12 or so. I've been wanting to re-incorporate it to our meal schedule.
Here is what we had for dinner on Saturday:
This pregnant momma was so satisfied! I picked up salmon pinwheels stuffed with spinach and feta, baked fresh green beans with Parmesan cheese, and homemade sweet potato fries (also baked and lightly coated with EVOO, salt, pepper, and brown sugar). Apple butter is in the small bowl - its my favorite sweet potato fry condiment (only apples, apple juice, and spices go into it).
It was nice to have a really filling meal after working out hard earlier that afternoon, but also not feel the least bit guilty about indulging in such healthy fare. Do you have a favorite easy, healthy, but satisfying meal?
