Seriously, sometimes I really wish I'd been in school before the advent of the internet. How the heck did people procrastinate before? When you're writing on a computer, it's just so tempting to jump online. I know there are ways to block certain websites, but there is no method to my procrastination. I'll randomly find myself looking at obscure Wikipedia entries for half an hour in order to avoid the task at hand..
I did take a few (totally unnecessary) study breaks, including one for dinner!
I made an Italian-themed veggie bowl by roasting half a zucchini, a tomato and half a head of cauliflower in olive oil and salt & pepper for about 30 minutes at 400*F. Then, I added a serving of Trader Joe's Meatless Meatballs along with some tomato marinara and nutritional yeast flakes. On the side, I had two slices of lightly toasted whole-wheat sourdough bread.
The flavors were surprisingly cohesive for such a thrown-together meal! Cooked zucchini always reminds me of grilling in the summer, when my dad slices them up and throws them on the grill with some fish. Mmmm.
I kept chomping right along with my usual apple + dark chocolate dessert- tonight's selection was another serving of Lindt chili.
I'm hoping I can finish the last three pages of this thing in the next hour or so...when I had the whole day open there wasn't much incentive to rush, but now my bed is looking mighty comfy! Enjoy your evening!
What's your favorite thing to grill? In the summer we have fish + grilled zucchini and eggplant at least once a week. It used to be chicken breasts, but I think fish is way more flavorful and summer appropriate, anyway! Peaches and pineapple are also delicious on the grill...can't wait!
