I hope everyone had a lovely Thanksgiving! I certainly did.
I over did it yesterday with food, so today I am going to eat simply. A green smoothie for breakfast and an early lunch of salad with chickpeas and avocado.
I am going to try something different this week money wise. Shopping every day or every other day instead of a bigger shopping once a week. I think it will allow more variety.
My mother will be here until Sunday, and then Monday I am going to get back to posting/writing recipes.
Frugan TOD: Mix leftover cranberry sauce with 5 spice powder, dijon and liquid smoke for a delicious glaze for tofu, tempeh, seitan or roasted veggies.

I'm gonna have a salad tonight - I'm actually craving one!
ReplyDeleteI totally overdid it yesterday, too. I, too, had a huge salad for dinner last night!
ReplyDeleteA salad sounds like a great idea.
ReplyDeleteYour salads always look so delicious! Chickpea and avocado sounds great!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea for the cranberry sauce! Enjoy your weekend. :)
ReplyDeleteI think it's impossible not to overdo it on Thanksgiving; The holiday pretty much demands it. A light post-feast salad sounds wonderful.
ReplyDeleteYay for fruganism! My little frugan heart burst for joy at 99 cent per pound brussels sprouts at Whole Foods so that's all I've eaten today :O
ReplyDeleteYour salad looks so fresh and light — exactly what I should be eating instead of stuffing myself with leftovers. Thanks for the cranberry tip. Today I used some as a topping for pancakes, and I'm going to freeze some, but a glaze could be in my future.
ReplyDeleteThat salad looks wonderful and the marinade idea sounds great too. I wish i had remembered cranberry sauce this year.
