A Delicious Concoction

I won a YAS tank from MizFit and I’m so pumped! New workout clothes make me really excited and motivated to hit the gym so this is a really good prize:

Also, just because I’ve never worn anything with skulls on it before, I’m interested to see if people look at the ground when they walk by me at the gym or run when I come in the door because they think I might beat them up. ( I kind of doubt this will happen, it is a yoga tank and not a leather jacket, but it would be funny) ALSO I have to mention that I don’t consider myself a lucky person, and I don’t know why I have been so lucky lately.. maybe it’s my lucky month, nope, that can’t be it, because I won the cookbook in July, MAYBE my life is turning around and I am now the luckiest woman ALLLIVVEE. That would be awesome, I’m just crossing my fingers that some of this luck with rub off on to my job search. 

On to the food.. last night for dinner I randomly threw a bunch of things together to go with Barilla Plus pasta because my cabinet is overflowing with different types of pasta. I buy it often, but I don’t cook it very often, so the packages have just been sitting there quite lonely. See:

So my delicious concoction, also known as,  ”Chicken” Pesto Pasta for one, has these main ingredients:

• 6 Morningstar veggie “chicken” strips
• 3 Sundried tomatoes (they were packed in oil but I rinsed them)
• 4 small Mushrooms
• 1/2 cup Yellow cherry tomatoes cut in half
• 1/4 cup Fresh Basil
• 1 cup Spinach
• 2 tsp of pesto
• 3 cloves of Garlic ( I love garlic and I was home alone)
• 1 cup of Penne pasta
