Grilling up this week’s menu….

April 22, 2012 by DanicasDaily 7 Comments

Happy Weekend all!  We just returned home from a fabulous trip to Reno and South Lake Tahoe this weekend.  Every spring we always try to head up to South Lake Tahoe to go for a hike to Emerald Bay, then, the next day……

Head over to Anderson’s Bike Rentals to ride bikes on this amazing trail along the lake.  You can head over to our Week in Lake Tahoe post to see where the trail takes you.

However, after running into a Grizzly Bear on the bike trail last year (at this same time!), we decided we would stick to walking everywhere we could and hiking.

The Husband usually bribes me into going to Reno on “our way” to Lake Tahoe so he can check out a few Antique Shops with promises of going to Michael’s Deli.

Michael’s Deli never disappoints ~ hands down the BEST salads I’ve ever had.

Vine ripened tomatoes, and fresh mozzarella cheese served over mixed greens with a honey mustard vinaigrette, Pesto, balsamic vinegar, & avocado

See what I mean?

It was awesome having a weekend off from everything and unintentionally forgetting my SD card reader for my camera. I am sad I missed out on seeing my WW Leader and hearing all the new fruits/veggies my friends at Weight Watchers tried this past week, but, I look forward to next week’s meeting and continuing on with the same goals this week!

HERE IS WHAT IS ON THE MENU THIS WEEK:

  • Grilled Tri Tip Steak, Sweet Potato Fries, grilled zucchini
  • Chicken & Green Bean Salad
  • Spicy Turkey Lettuce Cups
  • Grilled Shrimp Scampi with Fettuccine and salads
  • Maple Bacon Turkey Burgers with Zucchini Fries
  • LUNCHES: Balsamic Kale Salad with Apple & Pear
  • I am totally eyeing Biz’s St. Louis BBQ sauce so I think there may be some BBQ pork in our future soon too!

Stay tuned tomorrow for another fun giveaway that I think you will all be excited about.

Night all!

    Hi Danica,
    I just subscribed to your daily, after a friend sent me your recipe for Steel Cut Oats with Blueberries and Peaches last week. The husband and I devoured them and one of our kids loved it too. You had me hooked after that.

    Your blog is an awesome inspiration! Love the pictures. I’m attending WW but have been slacking. You motivated me to set some goals…
    Thanks!

    That salad looks awesome. Tomato and mozerella salad is my absolute favorite. I love it so much I made a pizza out of it! Yum-o!
