Well, like many people, I don’t like Mondays! For me, Monday means back to school and it’s one of my heaviest days class-wise. I have back to back classes all morning, lunch, then more classes. I can’t really complain though since that’s what university life is about right?

Busy days mean quick meals and what better way to keep those meals healthy than leftovers? I had more delicious lasagna for lunch today.

Once again, it’s on a salad (maybe bread? I don’t know, it’s small) plate. This time, you can see some mushrooms poking through the cheese as proof that there really areveggies in there! I have to say, even though I didn’t take a huge piece, it was a bit more than I needed for lunch – I’m quite full I wouldn’t say stuffed, but definitely more than satisfied! Hopefully this will help fuel my busy afternoon at school.

See you for supper, I promise it’s not leftovers!

Ok, not so much of a feast but it sure hit the spot! I made Lasagna tonight Here it is right out of the oven:

And now on my plate:

I swear that’s not a super huge piece of lasagna! I used a salad plate because I hate using bigger dishes than necessary. I know, I’m weird like that. It looks like it’s just cheese and noodles, but there are quite a few veggies hidden under there too. I suppose I could have rounded out the meal with a salad, butI’m just not in the mood for that today. I really prefer not to eat salads in the winter because I like warmer foods.

This afternoon I had to go to the mall to run a few errands and while I was there I felt like I was getting a bit faint, so I headed over to my favourite health food store (OK, the only one I’ve managed to find in this city!) and look what I found:

I was so excited, especially after my first experience with Larabars yesterday! It was tasty but I found the cocoa flavour a bit too strong. I would chose the regular Larabars over the jocolate ones next time.

I felt much better after getting some fuel into me but unfortunately I came across super discounted Easter candy and couldn’t resist! I got myself *one* small bag of Cadbury Mico Mini Eggs – they hit the spot. This is slightly unusual for me, usually I go off the deep end when I eat sugary foods but I’m happy to report that I stopped at that teeny-tiny bag!

Now I’m going to do some homework to get ready for school tomorrow.

Edited to add: I had another snack tonight before I head to bed. I took some inspiration from the infamous Oatmeal pancake and made it with oat bran and a tiny chocolate bar that I chopped up instead of chocolate chipe. This is better for me because now I don’t have the open bag of chocolate in the house! It was great!

You can’t really see the chocolate but it’s there! I sprinkled it on top right after I poured the batter in the pan and then quickly covered it up with more batter so that I didn’t end up with burnt chocolate when I flipped the pancake. Now I’m going to take my happy tummy to bed and hope for some sleep:)
