cooking attempts
I made this recipe
https://thegirlonbloor.com/easy-30-minute-zucchini-pizza-boats/
I didn't watch the video before I made it so I didn't scoop out enough of the zucchini. The end result was bland slightly undercooked zucchini with tasty toppings. I did salt and pepper the zucchini just not enough. I also didn't use enough sauce and it came out watery. But looking at her video I can tell her zucchini was a little under cooked.
I'm going to make this again but next time I'm going to - salt and pepper the zucchini and roast it for about 5 minutes. Saute the peppers, onions, and mushrooms so moisture is released and add more sauce and a little bit of red pepper flake at the end. But overall it was tasty and didn't take too long. I wish I had some kind of side to go with it.
I'm trying to eat healthier because I need to lose weight and my current diet sucks. I run into issues trying to follow meal plans I find online because there are so many things I don't/can't eat. Also I'm not cooking as much with my current work schedule. Matthew is taking over some of that so I have to find things he feels comfortable cooking. So tonight we had pizza boats. Tomorrow I think he is making tuna noodle casserole. Not healthy but I'll make a big salad and try to make the salad my main course and the casserole more the side dish. And then I have Sun and Monday off and after that I'm working 10 days straight for my lead up to my vacation.
Also need to exercise but my foot has been bothering me. I need to find a GP and start going to them and ask about my foot and see if it's more than just wearing bad shoes too much causing plantar faciatis . And it's been hard to exercise because I'm tired and my feet hurt. I've been doing a tiny bit of yoga. Which is more for my flexibility. I am going to try to add in some beginner pilates. It's the only thing I can think of that won't bother my foot. oh I actually found a seated cardio work out online that looks like it would be something I could do - not too easy but no impact on my foot. Okay I'll start adding that in sometime.
