Core Physio

Today was all about work, errands, and a long-ass physio appointment.

Breakfast was portable.  English muffin with bananas and Macadamia Nut Butter.  Nom.

After getting armed with a huge list of core strengthening exercises from my physiotherapist (talk about a re-education…basically have to take everything I learned about core strength from yoga and ab training and chuck it out the window for now!) I stopped to stock up on fresh produce and dinner ingredients.

I didn’t even unpack the groceries before digging into an Ataulfo mango.  4 for $3 at Root Cellar.

Lunch was a reheat of more leftovers from the weekend.  That $11 meal fed me three times!!

For some reason I’ve been craving Tuna Noodle Casserole for a few days.  Generally I have the basic ingredients for this on hand, but since I’ve been trying to eat my way through the pantry and freezer I was missing almost everything.  Not even a can of tuna to be had!

I fixed that situation up, dug out my Mrs. Furious recipe and got to work.

Super simple.  The hardest part is waiting for the pasta to boil.

I added dill to the casserole and topped the whole works with a snipped green onion and one ounce of finely shredded cheddar.

Mmmmm….comfort.  I ate two servings.

Steamed green beans on the side.

Expect to see the same tomorrow night!

After Glee I sipped hot water with orange slices (wasn’t feeling like tea) and dug into another Aussie treat care of Laura…chocolate mint biscuits.

I’m off to bed before I find my way to the fridge for more casserole.

I have pelvic floor exercises to do.  Word.

That casserole looks good! I've been craving tuna noodle casserole for quite some time but unfortunately hubby is not a fan of tuna.

weirdly enough, i've never tried the macadamia nut butter. after my cleanse, i think i'll buy myself a tub. i'm also glad to see you enjoying the treats i sent over. i was worried you might not like mint.

Your mango deal was better than my mango deal. I was all excited to get 3/$4 at QF yesterday.....so now 6 of them are in the fridge....yes, 6. I'm an addict.
