...and other “race weekend” meals

Even though we’re known as “trolls” in some areas, we thoroughly enjoyed the pasties B & R brought back from their latest trip to the Mackinac area. They served as our “pre-race” lunch on Saturday before the Glass City Marathon. I thought they had a nice appearance as well as a delicious taste. Even though it was a bit windy, we enjoyed eating them outside under the deck.
Our “carb-loading” pasta dinner is one of my all time favorites; of course we had salad and bread with it!
Breakfast at 5:45 Sunday morning was oatmeal, French toast, and bacon. I had too many pre-race jitters and couldn’t even finish my oatmeal – only ate about 3 spoonfuls! NO COFFEE and I’m so glad since there were no porta-potties to be seen anywhere downtown.

After the race we watched more finishers, then headed home to “picnic” fare - all beef hotdogs, potato salad and chips. Yummy! ~~K

Just catching up on posting pics of some great meals we've shared!

The most tender steak!

Steak and eggs the next morning (that seems so decadent)

Jambalaya…

Creamy Cajun Chicken PastaThis is a MUST HAVE recipe (http://www.recipezaar.com/Creamy-Cajun-Chicken-Pasta-39087). Don't even look at the amount of calories per serving! I think we’re having this again this Saturday so B can do some carb-loading before the half marathon!

Yummy eating! ~~K
