Peanut Noodles & Roasted Veggies Filed under ( Healthy, peanut butter, Vegetables )

Last chance: You have until 11:59 PM tonight to enter the Aurorae Yoga Mat Giveaway.

Glad you guys liked the artichoke sandwich idea! Josh really enjoyed it and it is a fun alternative to a meaty sammy or a regular grilled cheese.

Thank you all for your ideas on what you would do if you had extra money this holiday season. I got a little performance bonus (nothing majorly huge but still a nice, fun surprise) from work and have been debating what to do with the money. I decided I wanted to spend it on treats for both ourselves and some of the special people (friends/family) around us. Based on all of your fabulous suggestions (and my list of wants/needs), I have decided to split it up as follows (I think ;)):

• Donation to local Charleston Animal Shelter (along with a bundle of our old towels)
• A few new fun kitchen things (mini muffin tin, baking sheet, Rachel Ray Casseroval)
• A new pair of jeans (my jeans are SOOOO old and (no complaining on this one) somewhat big)
• An edger for the lawn(Josh has really been wanting one)
• A Starbucks gift card, so Josh and I can treat ourselves throughout the month
• A ticket into the Charleston Festival of Lights + A Christmas Tree
• Baking supplies (so I can make up some delicious treats for friends, family & neighbors)

How was your Thursday? Mine went well. Had the usual work followed by a few errands. I came home and prepped up a small bowl of peanut noodles and broccoli for Josh to eat before his basketball game.

I also made roasted veggies. Brussels, broccoli and cauliflower:

Topped with tomato and spices:

And a little olive oil, panko and parmesan cheese.

I think I’m going to throw these on a wrap later with some hummus!

Now, I am off to teach 45 minute Body Step & 45 minute Body Pump. I may go out later to meet up with Josh and his rec basketball team too. Hope you have a nice night.
