I survived my first day on Spring break! Both boys are doing well and mom actually got a little work done.
I am weighing daily while losing and the morning reading was 168.6. That made me smile.
Breakfast was my new cereal obsession…
Little guy and I then played a few rounds of Uno.
For lunch I made an experimental burger for a recipe I’m working on. I’m happy to say it was a success but you are going to have to wait for the details. ;)
A little while later I was craving something sweet. Thankfully I had a couple of dark chocolate jellies.
I also snacked on some popcorn.
Dinner was yet another burger but this time a Boca.
I made the boys regular ones with the leftover meat from lunch. We also had some baked beans and broccoli.
A little while later I had another one of my pink cupcakes. I’m working on the post for GreenLiteBites but it’s taking me FOREVER. I’ll get it up before Easter, I promise!
Ok, must sleep. Tomorrow I’m taking Little Guy to a LEGO class. I thought it would be a fun (geeky) activity on Spring Break. :)
Oh! and I got my walk in. We went before dinner. :)

What's Cooking in my kitchen?

I've seen it mentioned in a few of my clean eating and healthy cook books but honestly, I never even thought of Farro as an option for me. I refuse to shop at specialty stores and I try to use only common products that I can keep in stock and purchase from a typical grocery [...] -
I've never had a tuna melt. Is that weird? I guess that's what happens when you grow up not liking mayonnaise. I never ate tuna salad or egg salad or chicken salad. Honestly, they always kind of grossed me out. Then I realized.. hey.. why does tuna salad have [...] -
I have no idea where this idea came from. I was hungry. It was lunch. I had Brussels Sprouts. That was all the catalyst I needed.:) I decided to use a slice of real bacon to add flavor and little fat that would help sauté the sprouts. I'm trying [...] -
WOW was this good. I mean seriously good. It's not vegetarian so don't start throwing stones. I'm calling it a Garden Vegetable Burger because I use the new Laughing Cow Smooth Sensations Garden Vegetable Cream Cheese Spread. It was this recipe on Allrecipes.com that inspired [...] -
I drink water 99.9% of the time but every so often it just doesn't cut it. I want something else. Something more. Something slightly sweet. Today was one of those days. I decided to make a refreshing drink based on the famous Arnold Palmer, half lemonade and half iced [...] -
The other day I made a whole chicken on the grill in pieces. It was delicious! Just a little BBQ sauce and an open flame is all I need to make The Husband happy in the dinner department. I also picked up a few ears of corn from the grocery store. They aren't in season [...] -
Let me explain so you don't think I'm making a chili recipe and just put it on pizza. I'm calling this vegetarian Chili Pizza because chili is what inspired flavors. I think I told you. Little Bean is really into, well, BEANS! We go through a can about every 2 days. Yesterday [...] -
I've confessed my inability to follow recipes here on GreenLiteBites many, many times. I don't know why it's so hard for me. I can barely follow some of my own and I wrote the darn things! I think most of my problem stems from not having all the ingredients listed and, [...] -
Leftover brown rice and leftover sauce meet in this quick lunch idea inspired by my favorite food of all time: Pizza. I swear I can turn anything into a pizza concoction. Have you seen all my pizza ideas? I've used everything from pumpkin to zucchini, polenta to wontons. Nothing is off [...] -
This isn't a recipe just an idea I had to share. I can't believe how good it was! I've never had grilled pineapple. Can you believe it? I just never really had the desire to grill it before. When you love something raw sometimes it doesn't occur to you to cook it. [...] -
I whipped this up for lunch on a whim today because, well, I have a baby who's obsessed with three things… Cheese, Beans, and Avocado. No, really. Look... It's my go to meal for him so I find myself with beans and avocado readily available. [...] -
You know that tradition 7 Layer Mexican Dip? The one with the cream cheese, guacamole, salsa, lettuce, cheese, green onion and olives? Yea. That's the one. Well I had a craving for it the other day. Well, not exactly for it as I can never make anything the way it's suppose [...] -
If you go through the archives of GreenLiteBites I have about 5 total beef recipes. Five. Compare that to the 80+ I have tagged with chicken/turkey there's a clear winner in the meat department on my blog and in my home. I don't have a beef with beef (omg The Husband [...] -
I'm a kitchen sink smoothie maker. Whatever I have on hand goes in the blender and viola! A quick breakfast or a healthy snack. Last year I posted an "Elastic Approach" to how I make smoothies but I still like to share specific combinations that worked really well. This was one [...] -
The other night it was just the kids and I home for dinner and I decided to make what I wanted to make no holds barred. Without The Husband home it's much easier for some reason. Hmmm wonder why? Ok, not here to husband bash.. really.. I'm not! I'm here [...] -
*sigh* I was really hoping to share an awesome turkey burger idea. I had grand plans for my leftover ground turkey. The results was alright but they could have been so much better. I added diced pineapple, red pepper, green pepper, oats and soy sauce to the meat and formed 2 patties. In hindsight I [...] -
I made this on a total whim yesterday having no idea if it would work. To my surprise it did AND the husband actually said he liked it... UNSOLICITED! Here's the story. I had only 4 tilapia fillets defrosted for dinner. I knew it wasn't going to be enough for us [...] -
This is a slight reboot of a recipe I posted last year simply called Sweet Potato and Black Bean Chili. Staying true to my use-what-I-have-on-hand roots I, well, used what I had on hand and made a similar dish with a spicy twist. Topping the result with avocado added a cool creaminess that [...] -
Did you hear? The Laughing Cow recently launched Smooth Sensations a line of 5 cream cheese spreads. There's Classic Cream, Classic Cream Light, Strawberries & Cream, Garden Vegetable and my favorite… Cinnamon. It's a sweet wedge of creamy goodness! Today I decided to use my new favorite flavor [...] -
Confession time, I recorded a 30 minute video making this with both kids (partally) 2 nights ago. I miss videos. I really do but they seem so much more difficult with 2 children. I'm also having technical difficulties with my video recording and audio syncing making it VERY time consuming to edit. [...] -
A couple of years ago I shared a modified version of Sloppy Joe's I made for a party. Everyone loved it but I've been wanting to try to make something similar for the family on a smaller scale and without the pre-made canned Manwich sauce. I don't particularly have any issues [...] -
Yesterday I was dreaming about a salad. Not just any salad, but a chickpea filled, cucumber, and red onion salad with a fun, tangy dressing. Unfortunately, I had no cucumber or red onion. Well, that's a lie. I had a half of cucumber but it was a mushy mess and [...] -
Dinner meals are getting harder and harder for me to share lately. I've gone back to just whipping things up without really measuring anything (this meal was going to be one of those until I realized I still had enough light to take some photos.) I've also instituted a few brainless meal nights [...] -
Three years ago I posted a video called "Makin' Hard Boiled Eggs" where I shared my system for, well... making hard boiled eggs. Genius name, I know. I'm smart like that. Anyway, since then I've gotten tons of feedback and comments thanking me but all the information is locked in a long winded 10 minute [...] -
Yup. You read that correctly. BEET as in those red vegetables that stain your fingers pink. Honestly, I have no idea what possessed me to make this. I don't particularly like beets. I mean I like them, but I don't looove them. Two summers ago I made them for [...]
"@Nubiancooki darn! I don't think I have any popsicle ideas although I will tell you almond milk and sugar free chocolate pudding is AWESOME!— RoniNoone

I think the LEGO store is awesome! My sons are 15 and 13 and they still play with LEGO’s sometimes. I’m pretty sure they own thousands and thousands of pieces. Did you know you can buy LEGO’s on e-bay in bulk? Parents whose kids have outgrown them will sell them by the pound – you should check it out!
I’m all for a 2 burger day and yeah for being in the 160′s!!!! You are doing awesome!
Boys NEVER grow out of Lego! My boyfriend is 29 and still insists we go to the Lego isle when we are at the shops. You seem to be adjusting so fantastically to your new addition, you are such an inspiration. I wish I lived in America so I could come meet you at FitBloggin. Also, those burgers are making me hungry!!!!
You rock, Roni! Your posts always put a smile on my face. I just watched your video for making popcorn in a brown bag. Thank you so much for putting that up. For years I heard about all the chemicals that are found in those microwave popcorn bags, it’s so nice to know I can finally enjoy some popcorn without worrying about the chemicals. As a side note my 6 year old watched the video with me and she was just so tickled that your name is Veronica, just like her. :)
I LOVE that you’re losing again- because I discovered you after you achieved your goal weight. I’m “slow but steady” in losing weight, and your current weight is my lowest! Five pounds crept back up over Christmas, and haven’t managed to come off yet, but it’s nice to follow your loss as I attempt to kick-start mine :)
And Little Bean is *adorable*.
I remember those Lego days with my son. He use to set up these elaborate Lego play areas in strange areas of the house like behind the couch or in a corner of the room. We use to say that his bedroom floor was wall to wall Legos! Good times…
I am intrigued with your cupcake creation and it looks like perhaps beets are involved and I love beets! Can’t wait for the recipe.
I can’t wait until I see 168 again… 1.5 years ago i was 162.. then I got married and gained.. I also was diagnosed with PCOS which contributed to my weight gain.. I gained 30 lbs and currently down 6, but I am not getting my period, which is posing struggles since hubby and I are TTC. :( Can’t wait to be that weight I think my body would be much more happier and maybe carry a baby then .
Glad to hear the scale is going in the right direction ! What scale do you use? I need a new one …I dropped my current one and it does not work anymore
That burger looks heavenly! YUM! :)
That might be the fattest burger I’ve ever seen.
It has a surprise in the middle. ;)
