This morning as I walked gaily (trudged) on the elliptical, I was enjoying (trying to read and not fall off) the current issue of Health (seems only right, don't you think?). I got this idea from them and made it with stuff I have. Here's what I did:
- went outside and pinched the tops off two basil plants - probably 10-12 leaves, then washed and tore up leaves
- sliced a huge garlic clove into very thin slices
- cut about 12 grape tomatoes in half, long-wise
- put all of the above in a bowl where I added basil-infused olive oil, salt and pepper
- dumped the bowlful onto a light, multi-grain flat-out (from deli at Publix - hi fiber, hi protein, low everything else)
- chopped two cheese sticks on top and sprinkled it all with a bit of Parm
- baked it at 400 degrees for 10ish minutes
- FABULOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This healthy eating is a piece of cake - dang - why did I say cake?
