Friday Five {Vol. 3}

This week went by in a blur.  I'm not really sure I created much of anything useful, even though I have a to do list a mile long.  I do remember purchasing some clip art for an upcoming place value unit, and reading a chapter or two of The Daily Five. The rest of the week though, is kinda fuzzy.

While I haven't been super creative as far as teaching materials go, I did get creative in the kitchen.  I do like to eat and cook healthy, but I developed some really bad eating habits this school year.  Like frozen pizzas a couple nights a week type of bad habits.  My summer clothes were a bit snug this year, so I've enjoyed cooking and eating healthier foods this summer.

Considering I didn't focus much on school this week, this week's Friday Five is dedicated to my husband and I's favorite eats this week. 

1. {this bean burger} This is seriously one of our all time favorite dinners, and one of the few my husband requests.

2. {these roasted potatoes} I just used the spices I had in pantry, and these came out fantastic! 
 










3. {these Greek quesadillas} Words really can't describe how much we love these at our house.  I've made them three times in the past month. Olives, roasted red peppers, and feta cheese are a tasty combination. :)




4. {this salad} Oh my goodness, another repeat offender at my house.  We had it tonight for dinner.  I love, love, love the spicy ranch dressing and crunchy tortilla chip topping. 

 5. {these "healthier" muffins} Y'all my husband manages at a restaurant.  It's a nice gig, but the free bagels and cookies that he brings home from work don't do my thighs any favors. While these muffins aren't exactly the best muffins you will eat, they aren't that bad either, and certainly much better for me than one of those ginormous cookies my husband likes to bring home from work.  



Have a great night, I'm off to finish the dishes, yuck. :(  Happy Friday!

  4. Ooooh these look gooooood! Definitely going to have to pin some of these! I agree about the 'bad eating' that happened during school. Same thing happened to me. Came home late and too tired to cook a meal. Now that it's summer... I'm starting bootcamp in July and need to start getting on the healthy cooking train! You've given me a great start!
