Jeff went out to William’s Gourmet Kitchen for lunch with all of his hockey buddies this weekend. Since I was busy with studying and other weekend things, he grabbed me a fantastic lunch!
He ordered the Garden Salad with mixed greens, romaine lettuce, grape tomatoes, onions, cucumbers, shredded cheddar and slivered almonds, adding Grilled Chicken with Greek Dressing on the side.
The grilled chicken was seasoned perfectly and the almonds complimented the salad quite nicely! All of the veggies tasted very fresh! For a treat, I had two options.. sweet potato fries with brown sugar butter dipping sauce (Jeff brought home extra) ..
or the Red Velvet Cupcake
Who won?
… Actually, I had both! I had half of the fries and half of the cupcake, nibbling on the other halves after I got back from work that night! This was another example of my attempt at “being healthier”. I never deprive myself of treats, but try to do something for balance- eat half, exercise more, add extra veggies, etc. I believe that a well rounded diet filled with lean proteins and lots of fruits and vegetables is what makes treats like this really “treats”!
It was really fantastic ( especially for $7) as are all of my meals from William’s Gourmet Kitchen so far! Thank you Jeff and wgk!
