Keeping it simple this weekend. Protein heavy. Low carb. Mostly.
Got some sliced turkey in the fridge. Kim made some sourdough bread. So turkey sandwiches with the few tomatoes we have left are definitely happening. Simple, good and gets the job done. There's something about a basic sandwich done right that beats a lot of complicated meals. Good bread, meat, fresh tomato. Don't need much else.
We'll probably order out at least once. Been craving steak nachos from a local Mexican place. That's most likely happening. Can't shake the craving so might as well give in to it. You know how it is when something gets stuck in your head and you can't stop thinking about it until you just go get it. That's where I'm at with those nachos. Loaded with steak, cheese, all the toppings. Not exactly low carb but sometimes you have to live a little.
Now we might do Chinese instead. If we go Chinese it'll be Kung Pao chicken. That's my usual. Spicy, savory and hits the spot every time. But if I'm being honest the Mexican is probably winning this weekend. Those nachos aren't going to eat themselves.
Kim's also planning to bake some honey oat sourdough bread this weekend. I'll have to watch my intake on that because of my diabetes. Can't just eat half a loaf like I want to. But fresh homemade bread warm out of the oven with a little butter? Yeah I'll have some. Just have to be smart about it. I think some of it with some peanut butter on it toasted. With peanut butter for breakfast. Yeah, that's the ticket.
If I finally test negative for COVID we might get out and hit a couple of stores. Been stuck in this house isolating for what feels like forever. Ready to get out and do something. Even if it's just wandering around a store for an hour. At this point I'll take it. We may even grab a quick bite to eat while out.
Nothing fancy. No big plans. Just good food with my wife and hopefully some freedom from this house.
What are you eating this weekend?
Thanks for reading,
Joe
