It's no secret that I'm a less-than-regular blogger. However, I'm really trying to step up my game a little bit over here. My Spring goal is to become better organized. I used to really pride myself on my organizational skills, Type-A, get-er-done mentality.
So what happened? I got swamped. No - I let myself get swamped. In addition to my love for organization, I also don't tend to say "no, I can't" to very much. This tends to stretch me thin and make me so panic-stricken that I become crippled - and then I get absolutely get nothing done. A lot of great things get started, but nothing completed.
I kicked myself in the butt a little bit over the past few months, and this is the best way I know how to get at least this piece of it going. I'll leave you with two killer recipes that are not my own, but I make regularly now and I can't get enough.
The first is this quick breakfast staple for Cinnamon Egg White Oatmeal. I know it sounds a little gross, but I promise you - you do NOT taste the egg whites, and the extra protein kick keeps you fuller longer. Find the recipe by Robin, here at her blog. She's a sweet girl and I am very hopeful you'll like it. I tend to make more than one serving at a time and re-heat it throughout the week.
I put chia seeds on mine - extra omega-3s and fiber |
The second recipe is this Greek Seven Layer Dip. I've made it for many parties and it always, ALWAYS disappears before the party is over. I got the recipe from Erin at LIY, where I'm also being sponsored this month .. she's a great lady and always a fun read. Scroll half-way down this post to get the recipe. I also like to garnish it up a bit :)
That's all I got for ya today. I'll be posting some new spring recipes up here the rest of this month .. I know, don't hold your breath, but I'm going to try posting again more often than once a quarter.
Happy May!
