Full-less and Rule #47

Wow, when you make really really good food it is so hard (for me) to show any sort of self restraint. This week we cooked several amazing meals and I took a modest portion and refrained from going back for seconds. Why do I like to feeling of being really full anyway? It's not like it's a good feeling. BUT, for some reason I always look for that feeling to dictate when I should stop my indulging.

So, I said good meals and I captured two of them:

The first was a grilled pork loin with a mango and jalapeno chutney (my fingers burned for days after peeling the jalapenos!).




The second delicious meal was a simple spaghetti with buffalo meatballs. Even though it was a simple recipe it was hands down the best meat balls I have EVER eaten.




Next week we have Rule #48: Eat When You are Hungry, Not when you are Bored. Luckily, with all the wedding planning, cooking, salsa dancing, and friend adventures, I haven't felt bored in a while....and when I do I will remember my poor garden that has really been suffering lately.
