Yesterday for lunch, I quickly threw together Black Bean-Taco Salad. This was a very quick and easy recipe - throw everything together, top with dressing, and you are done!
It was decent, but, nothing special. Maybe I needed more dressing, or more cumin in my dressing. I'd make it again, but I think I'd add some salsa in to spice things up! Basically, it was just... bland.
For dinner, I made Veal with Asparagus. I have never prepared veal myself, but Veal Parmesan is probably one of my favorite meals, so I was excited. First, I chopped up scallions and garlic to put in the pan. This was my first time cooking with scallions - very exciting.
So, I got thin-cut veal, so it cooked really quickly. It wasn't overdone per se, just not as rare as I would have liked it.
Overall, I have to say this meal was seriously bland. I put quite a bit of thyme in it, and I do like thyme, but it just wasn't enough. I need to find some more veal recipes to make up for the lackluster dinner. I will say that more scallions would have helped - that was probably the tastiest part!
So, hopefully today's lunch and dinner will not be quite as bland! Looking at the ingredients list, I think it'll be a much better day!
In other news, this morning M and I had a 2 mile run. It wasn't very hot out but holy freaking humidity. We ended up averaging 11:12/miles. Could have been worse! ...haha. I can't wait for cool weather! This weekend we have FOUR miles to run - yikes. That sounds so... far. Oh well - off to work now, have a great day bloggie land!
