So I decided to start doing hot yoga again.
I used to actually be able to concentrate on relaxing, breathing and all that jazz but last night, all I could think about was food while doing this intense yoga pose…! What am I going to make for supper tomorrow? Turkey?…really Alex? (I am Canadian so our thanksgiving was a while ago, which is why I am not sick of eating turkey yet)…. So I decided to try something new: Prosciutto wrapped turkey breasts stuffed with Gruyère Cheese, Roasted Red Peppers and spinach.
Now don’t ask me where I got the inspiration because my brain is one wild thing but you have to admit that it does sound good!! I sure think it does! So on my way home, I stopped at the grocery store to grab what I needed (I kind of forgot that I just finished an intense workout and my hair was all over the place but…ya know, one track mind….)
I decided to make a nice and simple creamy sauce to go with the turkey as well as a nice big serving of rice as my side dish.
I think that the red and green from the veggies inside the turkey are very pretty so I am thinking of making this for Christmas dinner! At least for one of our 4 Christmases….Modern Families..
DAMN this was G-O-O-D!!! And so simple!!!! Needless to say, I ate too much, Again! I now roll to my treadmill… Enjoy!
