So my roommate thought I was a crazy person for making this but it’s SO GOOD! She just doesn’t understand…

INGREDIENTS:

  • 2 Low Cal Whole Wheat Tortillas (I use La tortilla factory)

  • 1 Small sweet potato (or 1/2 large)


DIRECTIONS

  • Skin sweet potato and cut into round slices and cook in microwave for 5 minutes
  • Spread peanut butter on both tortillas
  • Slice banana
  • Layer sweet potato slices onto one tortilla
  • Layer banana slices on there too
  • Cover with the other tortilla  
  • Heat in the toaster oven to heat up to your liking

This is incredible, I’m telling you. 
 Drizzle with some syrup for some extra goodness ;)

 
What Do You Have For Dinner on an Extremely Hot Day??

The only thing my brain is telling me to have is ice cream, and that’s not a very nutritious dinner now is it? lol

What are some cool, refreshing dinner ideas?

EDIT: Looks like I need to make gazpacho!

Salad, Salmon, Squash

Dinner tonight was a big ‘ol salad with spring mix, cukes, tomato, yellow summer squash, kidney beans, and ff italian dressing. I also had some salmon for protein and some butternut squash for carbs :)

The above turned into this:

I know, I know, sweet relish on fish sounds gross, but don’t knock it til you try it! I also LOVEEE ketchup on my squash. ANDDDD I drank a Mojito! Crystal light Mojito that is!
The taste is VERY sweet, I had to water it down a bit more, but it’s gooood. I ate about half of the salad, gotta save room for dessert! I think I know just the thing ;)

Veggie Pocket
