What We Have Been Eating

Here are just a few pictures of what we have been eating. Morning sickness edition. I haven't been able to stomach anything that wasn't carbs for the past week. This week it is definitely easing up and I am slowly re-introducing veggies back into my diet, pathetic I know haha.


So in no particular order, here are a few meals from the past week or so...


Cantaloupe makes a yummy snack and it wasn't so overwhelming that it didn't upset my stomach, we split it in half and Zack and I each ate a half. 


Because I seem to hate cooking for myself these past two weeks, this is just my favorite GF Amy's Mexican Food dish that I had for lunch one day.

For dessert this past week I blended up strawberries and mangos and left it pretty chunky using the lowest setting on my Vitamix. The fruit was frozen so it was like a chunky fruit bowl with sprinkled granola on top.

For breakfast this past weekend I made scrambled eggs and we had a left over potato and onion that needed using so I made potatoes with onion and topped it off with a side of avocado. After this meal I felt my morning sickness kick in and now I can't stand avocados unless they're in the form of guacamole. I can't explain it...it just is. 


For a night where we had no clue what we were going to make I boiled up some brown rice spaghetti and heated up some spaghetti sauce in a pan with a habanero chicken sausage from aidells.  

There is nothing glamorous about this dinner. Yeah, that is a full on huge plate of ranch. We even got so classy as to leave the pizza on the cutting board to minimize dishes. We were that lazy. This is an oven cheese pizza from Amy's...we went as far as to add our own pepperoni. Not my proudest moment this week, but it happened and it was carbs and it was all my body was able to handle. 

We made our typical tacos another night, I was able to eat two. Normally I can eat three small ones if I am really hungry, but I could only get 2 down barely. I didn't have a big lunch that day so I knew I needed to eat so I ate both of them. It is just ground turkey meat with McCormick Taco Seasoning "Hot", pico pica hot sauce, sour cream, homemade guacamole, cheddar cheese. The guacamole has lime, onion, and cilantro in it already to make them easier to eat and not have ingredients fall out everywhere. 

Another lazy night...I am sensing a pattern here. We actually did not have tacos back to back nights but these pictures are in here randomly. We always have left over taco meat so when we didn't know what to make one night for dinner (aka when I couldn't make a decision on what I wanted) Zack suggested we use the leftover. So we used the leftover taco meet and made "fresh" tacos with tons of tomatoes and cilantro and no avocado, no sour cream, nothing. Just the taco meat, some tomatoes, lots of cilantro, and some cheese sprinkled. 

Apparently I really wanted a "brothy" soup this past week and so I made our chicken soup without any parsley and with minimal ingredients. There are other posts including this soup that says everything that is included in it. 

And a lunch time snack, the other day lunch sounded disgusting so I made myself a strawberry smoothie before I went back to my Physical Chemistry class that is in the afternoon. Once I got to class I regretted it, because there are only 6 people in the class total and I think every single person could hear my stomach growling. Distracting....


What have you guys been eating lately?

Have a great Tuesday evening!

Meals and Things!



Things are finally settling down after the holidays, Zack's family from Utah were visiting since a few days after Christmas and went back to Utah this past Saturday evening. Zack has been working and I have been trying to get the house ready for my last full-time semester and catching up on laundry and some deep cleaning (oh yeah, baseboards and everything). So I haven't had much time to blog, but I am working my way back into a routine since everything is going back to normal!

A Couple Meals We Have Prepared Recently!

Zack was craving Cheddar Broccoli Soup from Panera the other night, but because that isn't Gluten Free we had to improvise to meet his cravings! So we made an amazing Cheddar Broccoli Soup and it's 100% Gluten Free! It also lasted a few days because there were left-overs that we put into containers and were able to make a few meals out of it!

CHEDDAR BROCCOLI SOUP

We made the soup with a simple Caesar Salad and of course, Zack wanted some croutons...so once again we improvised and I made some Gluten Free Croutons for our Gluten Free Caesar Salad!

We were procrastinating on getting groceries so we had a few random things left over and I was able to make a delicious Gluten Free BBQ Chicken Pizza. It was a last minute lunch idea and was soooo yummy! I love thin-crust pizza and this one hit the spot!

BBQ CHICKEN PIZZA 



Last night Zack went out for Taco Tuesday with his friend so I made a salad for myself for dinner.
I made a Grilled Chicken Apple Salad. It was amazing, I made the candied pecans and added Gorgonzola Cheese to it with some home-made dijon vinaigrette. 100% Gluten Free as always and definitely satisfied my salad craving for the night! The apples just add so much flavor!

CHICKEN APPLE SALAD 

Last night, Zack and I caught up on The Bachelor and I am so excited, the best part about the show is to see all the crazy women and their true colors eventually come out. It is a small guilty pleasure, this season looks like it promises some serious crazies! YES! Haha.


I hope everyone is getting settled for the New Year and enjoying their week so far! Add me on instagram @SydneySedillo I would love to see what everyone else is up to as well! I always love talking to you guys.
