What I ate Wednesday (5/11/16)

Wednesday, 11 May 2016
Hey Guys!

Welcome back to another what I ate Wednesday!

Breakfast (7:30am)
 I had a cup of coffee with caramel toffee creamer ( Delicious!) and I had plain yogurt with chocolate protein granola with a banana on top. Sorry I only took a picture of my coffee


 Lunch (noon)

I had some Indian food at lunch, once again made by my mom. I had rice with peas ( my fav!) with channa and plain yogurt. I also had 2 glasses of water.

Snack (3:30pm)
 I had strawberry yogurt
Dinner (5:30)
Today we ate earlier then we usually do, because we had to eat this while it was hot. My boyfriend and I both contributed to tonight's dinner. My boyfriend fried the chicken for orange chicken, while I made a chicken stir fry using VH sauces for 2, and I also made vegetable fried rice. I had 2-3 glasses of water

 Snack (8:00pm)
After my workout I had 2 dates and a cup of green tea



Snack#2 (10:00pm)
My boyfriend and I decided to watch a movie so we ate some MCcain Marble cake with some Neapolitan ice-cream!


Orange Chicken

Tuesday, 3 May 2016
This is a receipe that I discovered recently, and my boyfriend requests it weekly. We had a craving for chinese food, but didn't want to spend a lot of money. My boyfriend requested orange chicken and I found this easy receipe.

Here is what you will need

Chicken breasts or theighs
Orange Marmalade
BBQ Sauce
Soy Sauce
Egg
Flour
oil

Whisk Together 2 eggs in bowl 1
In bowl 2 put flour
Cut chicken into pieces. If I'm using breasts I will use 3, if I am using theighs I will use the whole pack
Dredge chicken in the egg and flour mixture and place in hot oil to deep fry

Side Note: I am the worst at deep frying, I panic and I can never get that golden color, so I always get my boyfriend to do it

While the chicken is cooking put ! cup of Marmalade and 1 Cup of bbq sauce in a pan with 1 tbsp of soy sauce. Stir on medium heat.
The sauce will gradually boil and thicken, remember to stir frequently.
Place the cooked chicken on a paper towel to drain the excess grease
once the chicken has cooled mix into the sauce and mix thoroughly. I like to cook it a little more once it is in the sauce.

Serve with rice
