The Hungry Diner

LORELAI: We should be eating, I’m hungry, this is crazy. Don’t they want us eating? Isn’t that what the point of The Hungry Diner is – to feed the hungry diner? Or is the point of The Hungry Diner to keep the hungry diner hungry, in which case they should call it The Eternally Hungry Diner ‘cause you’re not gonna get any food here, loser.
RORY: That would be quite a sign.

Amy's Black Bean Chili is so hearty and delicious. I don't think that I could make it any better myself! Sweet Potato Fries = MMMM! :D

Hungry Dad & Brother (who don't eat the crusts) = loads of pizza crusts for this carbalicious girl (which double as breadsticks)

A doughy pita with cheese on top, perfected by the broiler! :D

POM spritzers...a no brainer!

My Amy's Toaster Pastry was talking to me..."Eeeeat Me".

My response..."Trust me, you don't have to ask!"

LORELAI: Oh, excuse me, I’m sorry.
WAITRESS: Yes, Sweetie?
LORELAI: What are the tiny cups for?
WAITRESS: They’re coffee cups, they’re for coffee.
LORELAI: What, are you running out or something?
WAITRESS: I’m sorry?
LORELAI: Never mind. Listen, we are very sleepy this morning, so would you happen to have something in a larger size, say a mug, a tureen, a small bowl of some kind?
WAITRESS: A coffee bowl?
LORELAI: Yes, a coffee bowl.
RORY: Bring two, please.
WAITRESS: We don’t have coffee bowls, I’m sorry.
LORELAI: Okay, well, then would you mind bringing. . .what do you think – two, three?
RORY: Three’s good.
LORELAI: Yeah, three of these cute little cuppy things? Oh, and could you leave the pot in the meantime?

Lorelai Gilmore would have been proud... ;)

I warmed one of these doughy pitas (I am talking dense, no hole in the center...you know what I mean?! :D) in a frying pan and then whipped up an egg white scramble with some zucchini and onions. Nom nom!

Quite possibly the perfect pre-workout snackaroo.

Remember those pitas I was JUST talking about (these...)?Well, I topped one with a homemade pumpkin spaghetti sauce (1 part pumpkin puree to 2 parts tomato sauce, seasoned well), shredded cheddar cheese and tonsss of thinly sliced veggies. Oh babbbby!!El Monterey White Corn Shredded Beef Taquitos. I never thought I would be featuring these on the blog; but, you know what, I didn't ever truly look into what they have to offer. No, they aren't "health food"...but they aren't too bad either! :)

I was looking for some protein and I had already had PB & eggs for the day...what else could I use to be creative. Hmm, maybe snag some of my bro's taquitos. I got the oven fired up and took out the bag to find that the nutritional stats weren't too bad. Sure, they are sort of high in sodium, but the protien count is great and the fat count is pretty low.

The ingredient list is much shorter and much more comprehensible than anything that I would have imagined!

Two taquitos, chopped and tossed over a crisp salad, made just the lunch that I was searching for!

It's Biggest Loser Time! I really hope that BL motivates more people to lose weight. Do you think it's just a reality tv show or do you think that BL truly motivates others to put themselves first and take the necessary measures to lose weight?
