I’m a big fan of carbs. I mean, who isn’t? They taste good. Case in point…

Okay, those don’t look the most appetizing, but look what’s inside? Yum.

A co-worker of mine sent me this recipe for Broccoli-Cheddar pockets and I made them the other day. I followed the recipe exactly with just a little bit less cheese. Not that it mattered, they were definitely cheesy. I used the Pillsbury French Bread which probably isn’t the healthiest thing, but it tasted good. I might try it with whole wheat pizza dough next time though. Don’t tell Jason.
And look at this! Remember when I was told that I never eat salads at home? Boom.

This was a Pinterest find, as most of the things I make nowadays are. This was Chopped Salad with Creamy Vinaigrette Dressing. I just sort of used what veggies I had on hand – cabbage, arugula, romaine, red peppers, avocado and then some whole wheat elbows. For the dressing, I used only 3 tbsp of mustard and 1/4 cup of oil and 1/4 cup of water instead of the 1/2 cup of oil. At first, the dressing had a little too strong of a mustard flavor for my liking, but after a while, it grew on me. If I made it again, I would probably do just 2 tbsp of mustard. That’s just me though; I’m not the biggest dijon fan.
Tomorrow is Friday! Finally.



Oh man those look good!
You always make such yummy looking things that seem so ridiculously easy too. Teach me your ways!
PS – have fun on the 5K this weekend. And hope BBB is going okay for you too!
I love carbs too – and those calzones look yummy. High five!
I love that you are making a point to make these salads now.
Those look so good! I definitely need more salads at home, I can just never get them to turn out as good as at restaurants.
It’s like a hot pocket!! I lived off those in college!!
That salad looks so good! I’m so lazy when it comes to making dressings. I normally just do ACV and nooch for salads. I love it, but I need to be more creative some times. Good luck tomorrow!
Carbs are my bestest friend.!
I agree with Kacy
Those pockets definitely look yummy.
Broccoli cheddar pockets?!? Sounds amazing.
Ahhh… finally Friday!! I love carbs so much, but that salad looks beautiful too.
Yay Friday!! Those broccoli cheddar pockets look unbelievable! So does that salad! You always pin awesome recipes and are way better about actually making them than I am!
Looks yummy!
Oh yum – those look fantastic! I haven’t made anything like that in a while although I have something similar on my “need to make list”. Speaking of lists – don’t you LOVE pinterest!
