i haven't really felt like posting, or cooking lately. tonight i wanted something easy, satisfying, and light & summery to match the southern heatwave. i decided to make a surimi salald and stuff it in a pita. i pretty much threw things in as i went along, not measuring anything, and it ended up delicious, although i forgot to pick up some cilantro, which would have made it even better...
this made plenty for 2 servings, and perhaps more than that:
- package flake-style surimi, shredded
- large stalk celery, diced
- 1/3 red onion, diced
- champagne mango, cubed (the small mangos)
- couple handfuls raisins
- some slivered almonds (how precise!)
- juice of a small orange
- tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1-2 tsp nuoc mam (vietnamese fish sauce)
- heaping tablespoon greek yogurt
- 2? tsp light mayo
- s & p
YUM!
wish i had some sorbet for dessert!
i took a half day today... i got up and just wasn't feeling it, and since i had an appointment @ 1, i decided to work until then, and take it easy the rest of the day. i went to the bookstore and sipped on an iced coffee while reading, called a friend and caught up, and changed into loungepants at 5 =p. i don't quite feel rested, since what i really need to catch up on is sleep, but i feel a bit more relaxed.
once again, i'm feeling like i need more friends/more connection. my nutritionist says it's a sign of where i am in recovery, where just figuring out the food piece isn't enough, and now i need something deeper. i'm exploring meetup groups (to meet people for a hike or something) but i'm just so bad at pushing myself out there.
