This is a weekend meal for me, mostly because it takes about 30 minutes to prepare. I realized when planning for this dinner that I was gonna dirty up quite a few pots, so I made one pot do double boil duty. |

This week instead of cooking I focused on some healthy convenience foods to get me through meal times without resorting to eating out. By the time I get home I feel pretty flattened and have no brain power to cook, which is why this meal requires little mental circuitry to prepare. |

Tonight I got home ready to make a meal I’d been thinking about all day, when I realized that I left the veggies at work. I thought about what I could throw together that incorporates the two things I wanted to get out of dinner, namely vitamins and fiber. Legumes to the rescue! |

I thought I’d show you how to make your own Greek style yogurt for half of what you spend on the little 5.3 ounce cups. It’s really easy and requires little culinary skill. |

I call this thing I just made up Omelet on a Pita because it’s basically the same ingredients I would whip together for a Sunday morning omelet, except they’re not actually IN an omelet. Just read on and I’ll explain myself. |

Greek yogurt is enjoying a surge in popularity, so I’ve spent the past few days sampling different brands. After some trial and error, I’ve learned the trick to Greek yogurt: don’t stir it. |

I’ll admit it, I’m guilty of fitting into a female stereotype: I eat yogurt every day. It’s got calcium for my bones, active cultures to help with tummy trouble, and it holds me over in the morning until I can get to second breakfast (I’ll explain another time). |

Since I left the free-cake-and-baked-good mine field of MD Anderson, I’ve been so proud of my ability to resist the lesser temptations presented at my new gig. This morning the email that would remind me of my mortality popped into my mailbox. In celebration of the grand opening of our new cafeteria the chef had prepared FREE CAKE. |
