"Leftover Eats"

So, we had one rouge avocado in the fridge leftover from last week...so you really can't fault us for having yet another Grilled Chicken Club salad with Guacamole dressing last night:)  Butttt never fear, as I realized I still hadn't told you about our great salad from LAST week, as well as a few leftover eats from the computer hold up of last Monday! 

Ok...talk about the epitome of "not rocket science", and yet this simple salad was BURSTING with flavor!  We made a Grilled Caesar Salad with White Beans (and carrots:)

Just that little drizzle of olive oil and a couple minutes on the grill REALLY brought a whole new flavor to the lettuce!  I think I said "This is so good" about 42 times;) hahahahhahahaha....and I do <3 some white beans, which only made it better!

And in "catch up Eats" :).....last Sunday morning's breakfast was Ellie Krieger's Blueberry French Toast Bake.  Scott's not much of an almond fan, so I swapped them out for a few dabs of low-fat cream cheese.  He really loved this!

I also swapped out the maple syrup for some blueberry syrup, to up the BLUE taste:)  (ya know, one of those things you have on your fridge door that you never really use...I figured I could put a dent in it with this;)

And heeeeeeeeereeeee is a great recipe that could come in handy this holiday weekend!  For Father's Day at my in-laws, I made this Frozen Lemonade Pie...

This seriously couldn't have been easier to throw together (so easy, in fact, I made one for my work peeps a few days later:) and it is a PERFECT way to beat the heat!  So fab!  (I already have an idea for the NEXT 'frozen' pie...;)
Soooo...glad I got to share those "leftover" good eats with ya!  I'm already excited for dinner tonight, since it's a 'decadent' type of recipe that I plan on slimming down a bit!  Stay tuned:)
