Sunday batch cooking
Today was a cooking day for me. I wanted to have everything ready to go for the entire week. So I made my lunches for the week, as well as some snacks and stuff for both J and I for the week. I have really spent too often cooking for a big chunk of the day, and really it was nice, so I am glad that I did it.
My plan for the week's lunches is chicken, brown rice, and veggies. I cooked the chicken and rice today and I plan on heating up the veggies at work when I reheat the chicken. Making the rice also allowed me to bust out my rice cooker that we received as a wedding gift. I had not used it before, so I was excited to give it a whirl. It went well, and I am glad to have it. We will be using it more, I think. For certain.
After the chicken and rice came Jamie Eason's cinnamon swirl protein bread. J and I both had a piece of it. It was pretty delicious and I look forward to the occasional snack of it this week. I then made kale chips, and some roasted chickpeas. They are all going to be yummy snacks for the week. It took less time to do all of that than I expected, so I was pleased, and I guess I will need to continue to do things like this on Sundays.
In a few hours, I am heading out from here to go to Loveland and hang out with my friend Carol. It should be a fun evening!
