I revolted from my gruel breakfast and ate an egg instead. It isn’t so much the ugly appearance and slimy texture of my oatmeal regimen that bothers me, it is the everyday sameness. I wish there were something else savory to do with oatmeal. So far John has only suggested haggis!

Lunch was a combo salad – green salad, tabbouleh, and chickpea salad.

Salad, salad, salad

Remember way back to Sunday when I made a new dish? We liked it so much (plus we still had leftover garlic bread crumbs) that we made whole wheat spaghetti with olives, capers, and tomatoes again. I added a little V8 to give the sauce more volume but it kind of diluted the tomato flavor. I need to find a way to increase the volume and amp up the tomato flavor.
