Skateboard Sunset

Yes! I survived Monday. I defeat with in itself. After a good therapy session, a Subway lunch date with mom, a nice sweat sesh at Lifetime and getting homework done..(is it weird that I could spend hours reading my psychology textbook??) I helped prepare din din for the night!

Lightened Up Lemon Parmesan Fusilli
[adapted from from Claire's site]
  • 10oz (3/4 box) whole grain pasta
  • ~ 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1/3 cup low fat cottage cheese
  • 1/2 cup plain Chobani 0% greek yogurt
  • 1 tsp minced garlic
  • 1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
  • 1-2 tsp lemon juice

  1. Prepare pasta according to package directions / Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees
  2. Toss broccoli florets and tomatoes in olive oil. Season with salt and pepper as desired.
  3. Spread in single layer on foil lined baking sheet & roast 20-25 minutes, until tomatoes start to wilt and broccoli is tender.
  4. While vegetables are cooking, combine cottage cheese, yogurt, and garlic in a blender or Magic Bullet. Stir in parmesan.
  5. Toss pasta with “sauce”, then stir in vegetables. Add in lemon juice and greens!
  6. Yum

How do you make Mondays Fundays?? Cooking up a good meal to end the day is always a fun way. Simple & relaxing.

Took Bonds around the park..the sunset is beautiful right now:

 I'm spending the rest of the night reading, listening to Vampire Weekend, preparing for an interview with WCPO tomorrow for an internship this summer and watching the lil bro skate. Nice end to the day!
