Dinner:

• Gnocchi with pesto, broccoli, and a Boca Spicy Chik'n Patty (800 calories)

Randomly decided to have gnocchi for dinner--bought a box a while ago, and it had been sitting in the pantry by its lonesome, until tonight. Made a random trip to Central Market to get some of their store-made pesto (to save the hassle of using the blender)...

For being incredibly easy to assemble, this dinner was quite satisfying. At ~800 calories, this is not an "everyday" meal, but it was a nice treat. With each bite, it took me back to Italy! The only thing missing was some vino.

These look a lot better than they taste! After eating the incredible, home-made ones from Churrascos & Artista, my taste buds have been spoiled!

With this work-week being full of poor eating choices, I am looking forward to eating better this weekend! (*Thinking positive thoughts*, at least!)
