What My Pregnant Self Is Eating 10/10

WinchesterGirl

It's 2nd Tri, food is (mostly) good again... what are you craving this week?

BlondePeanut

Mozzarella sticks.....meatball grinders....salads....ice cold lemon water even though it is about 45 degrees out, but I did drink a ton of tea with lemon and honey all weekend trying to battle this awful cold/sinus infection I have. It seems to be subsiding for the most part...still have an icky cough though. I also had some cadberry cream eggs b/c they are awesome

+ 1 to mozzarella sticks since it was brought up yesterday. 

I've also been craving all the fruits. Mostly grapes, watermelon and raspberries. When I'm feeling extra daring, I pour English cream on my fruits. Mmmm.

today we're getting subs for supper. H has been craving it and I'm not saying no! Steak & cheese sub *drool*.

I'm obsessed with mozzarella sticks not preg so it's just multiplied. I think im heading to Chick fil a today for a sandwich with extra pickles.

DH isn't feeling well, and I've been craving, so we are having grilled cheese and tomato soup for dinner tonight! I'm so excited!

@tishb We're having grilled cheese and tomato soup for dinner tonight, too! I've had a hankering ever since we talked so much about cheese here last week. I bought some amazing sourdough bread and special cheeses (dill havarti and caramelized onion cheddar) just for the occasion...and now I am kind of drooling a little at my desk.

I had mozzarella sticks Friday night at a local pizza place. They were so yummy!! I have been eating everything unhealthy lately. This morning was a donut from the best donut place in my area. I was at an event this weekend that took place on the same street as the shop so I felt like it was just a good reason for me to stop in and grab a few.

I'm trying to balance things out today after the endless restaurant meals, so I made myself a massive salad with grilled chicken for lunch at the salad bar. Hopefully it sticks with me!

Chicken & dumpling soup with half a veggie sandwich (but, a really delicious one... even before the ban on deli meat, it's what I usually ordered from this place).  Plus, salt & pepper kettle cooked chips.

Husband and I went to the farm/pumpkin patch yesterday and I got a loaded baked potato. It was sooooo freaking good with all that cheese! I want another one now.

I made a curried butternut squash tart that came out super tasty last night. I'm enjoying the leftovers now along with an espresso cheesecake brownie. Almost makes up for having to work today. Almost.

I made myself a chicken caesar salad and then forgot it in the fridge...So I'm going to get tacos for lunch.

MoonOverGoldsboro

@MrsDramaK I'm sorry you forgot the delicious lunch you made, but tacos sound amazing, so...I think you're still coming out ahead. And now you have lunch already made for tomorrow!

BlondePeanut

Meatball sub with cheese, peppers, onions, pickles, and spinach for lunch today

lfrank12

Nacho cheese Doritos are my weakness

leprechaunlady

I had a roast beef in the slow cooker & had veg potatoes & gravy with it. It was so nice!

scifichick09

Eggs Benedict, cottage cheese, and a milkshake.

Tomato soup and Carmellos. I woke up the other morning and couldn't eat anything else until I'd had macaroni and cheese.

I REALLY want macaroni and cheese.

Bacon, eggs, and toast for lunch today. I really wanted something breakfasty today. I've been forcing myself to buy fruit on my breaks at work just because I feel my diet has been so unhealthy lately, I've really been going after the salty stuff.

BlondePeanut

Today was only 35 degrees out, so I am having a baked potato with homemade chili on top

feelingjovani

Oops, wrong thread.

My friend texted earlier to see if I wanted to grab lunch, so we went to this sandwich shop I haven't been to in ages and I got a cheesesteak. With both hot AND sweet peppers. I only ate half, since it's a huge sandwich, but I already want to eat the rest of it.

expandcontract

I just had a turkey sub from subway after such a long time!! First time eating deli meat this pregnancy. 

WinchesterGirl

I am getting a consolation cheeseburger tonight, due to the stupid prospective tenants. At least one good thing will come from me driving across town!

leslie1331

I had tuna salad and brussel sprouts. That sounds so gross now that I said it outloud. I need to redeem myself with some ice cream 

Gretchypoo

Last night we had mac n' cheese with a huge salad-- I'm craving all the cheese!

MLRocha

I threw chili in the crockpot yesterday morning.  When DH said he was on his way home, I threw rice in the rice cooker.  A night without cooking...  And, still a reasonably healthy and tasty dinner?  Win!  Plus, I have tons of leftovers.

Note to self: I need to start making a list of easy things like this that I might be able to do in the first few weeks at home with LO.

I have an easy Buffalo Chicken recipe, It's Chicken breasts, buffalo sauce, ranch powder and butter.  You throw it all in a crock pot.  I usually just bake a couple potatoes and steam frozen broccoli so dinner's ready in no time!

@MLRocha +1 on the Chili Train. My hubby put it in the crock pot early this morning. I found the recipe online and it's our first time trying it out so I'm hoping it won't disappoint

lfrank12

Baked mac and cheese with andouille sausage and topped with bread crumbs. Also had a grilled cheese for "second" lunch. Cheese cheese cheese!

Send me some please!

Cookie dough cheesecake.  Nuff said.

I'm kind of proud of myself. I made a 7oz bag of skittles last me 3 days! My goal was 5 days but normally I plan on making it last a couple days and it's gone in a day so I'm counting this as a win...

MLRocha

Just got back from a sub taste test (at work) where I got to try three different sandwiches...  They were so yummy and I'm so happy.  Perfect mid-afternoon snack.

Fun sized Milky Ways. Thanks Halloween.

Tonight for dinner we are having chicken cordon bleu, mashed potatoes and green beans. So excited.

birdiejo

Me and my kid are pretzel diving. It's where you have a giant tub of pretzels and you leave it open on the floor and eat out of it with no end in sight.

We should probably stop because dinner but I can't.

WinchesterGirl

Tonight it's pot roast, with roasted potatoes, greens beans, and corn on the cob. But, I'm considering replacing the potatoes with cheesy rice.

Is this really a thing? I'm so confused.  Can't tell if you're joking.

Man you ladies are having some good dinners tonight. I'm lazy so I asked H to bring home Chinese. Lo mein and crab Rangoon for me.
