Yesterday was Justin's birthday, so we went to one of our favorite restaurants, Opera. I always either get a beef or chicken dish, so I was feeling a little down about going, but when we got there, I was pleasantly surprised to see the new vegetarian section on their menu! The last time we were there, they had a vegan section with like 2 things...one of them being mixed vegetables over rice noodles. delicious right? Anyway, this time, I chose the kung pao tofu and it was AMAZING! The sauce was nice and thick and super spicy. I was really impressed with how the chef cooked the tofu, it must have been pressed because it was really chewy and textury!
Today we went to the Cubs game, where I would normally have a huge italian beef sandwich, or possibly a hot dog. This time around, I had some nachos and peanuts. Still in the unhealthy range, but meat free nonetheless! After the game we headed over to another one of our favorite restaurants, Piece. It is a pizzeria and brewery, and it is fabulous. Mashed potatoes and garlic were the toppings of choice for today....YUMMMMM!!!!!!! Pizza is super easy for me because I was never a big "pizza meat" type of girl.
I'm happy to say that I have stayed successful in my journey, and look forward to doing a little more cooking this week!!!
