So it has definitely been awhile since I've updated and for that I am sorry. School seems to take up more and more time as the semester progresses, but I guess that should be expected. But today is different because today Nathan and I are skipping classes and relaxing at home =). I am a little bit ashamed to admit that it is after ten and we are still in bed, studying, having breakfast, and watching reruns of the Office. But I do happen to think that Michael Scott and green tea is a great way to start the day =). I have a lot of house work waiting for me outside of this room and I'm pretty much ready to get started, just thought I'd post since I'm laying here anyway.
Just recently we had a nice meal of seitan italian sausage =). We have really been into faux meats lately, Nathan is pretty much a seitan craftsman. The fact that recipe calls for steaming the "meat" made the most tender seitan we've had yet. I also made some hotdog buns from neverhomemaker. We sauteed some onions and peppers to top the seitan (Nathan's idea), and I made homemade baked beans that were quick and very delicious =).
As far as the mac and cheese goes, I definitely cheated and took the quick and easy route. Nathan and I found boxes of Annie's Natural Mac & Cheese at our favorite discount grocery store (just five minutes from our house). We looooooove shopping there and can often find lots of healthy snacks and other treats for at least a fourth of the price!!
The meal turned out great and was the epitome of comfort food! =) I put the links to the recipe at the bottom of the page. I'm planning on doing another post real soon about the discount store and some of our favorite finds! I hope everyone is enjoying the spring weather and having a great weekend!! God bless!
