Lunches last week were again grilled chicken, with brown rice and green beans! I always make green beans with some butter and salt and pepper. Because they are DELICIOUS served that way!

Afternoon snacks were bananas and cottage cheese…I should really spice these snacks up a little bit. Or change them up, I guess. I don’t think either one would be very good spicy with taco seasoning…you think?
Dinner – these were my eats from last week Thursday, by the way – was delicious! I went over to check out my sisters’ new apartment and they cooked for me. Brittany made some new things she found at Trader Joe’s the other day.
I STILL haven’t really shopped at Trader Joe’s. I know. Something is SERIOUSLY wrong with me!
Now I need to go there and find this ricotta and lemon ravioli. I know it sounds like a strange combo, but it was so refreshing and tasty! She made the ravioli with some pesto, sauteed spinach, and cherry tomatoes. We also had some steamed broccoli and a side salad with a new dressing she also found at TJs.

The spinach and iceberg lettuce salad had walnuts on it, and a a champagne pear vinaigrette.

You know that I’m picky with vinaigrettes, but this one rocked my socks! Like, I need to try and start recreating this one now.
