My Awesomely Healthy Dinner

I've been feeling pretty tired today. I didn't sleep well last night and I've had an incredibly hectic day at work. So, needless to say, I was feeling pretty exhausted when I left work, and I was feeling tempted to pick up some dinner on the way home. However, I was feeling too tired and lazy to even drive somewhere so I came straight home and tried to find something in my fridge and pantry to eat. And rather than eat something easy (and bad) like a frozen burrito or even some frozen waffles, I forced myself to cook a real meal. And I even managed to cook a healthy meal!


I made a huge salad with some baby romaine lettuce, baby spinach, and carrots, and I topped it with a light and delicate—and yummy!—honey mustard vinaigrette. And I also made some grilled chicken, seasoned—perfectly, I might add—with some olive oil, salt, pepper, thyme, and garlic powder. And I had a slice of Texas Toast on the side. Sure, I didn't include in the picture the beer I drank with my dinner, but all in all it was a good meal. So I'm feeling pretty proud of myself for rustling up some food of my own rather than picking up something on the way home. Yay, me!
