Strawberries and Spaghetti

Hello everybody!  Today was delicious.  Only two "pretty plates" though.  Lunch was an amalgamation of munchies while doing things.  Here we go!

Breakfast was simple: two scrambled eggs, a piece of whole wheat toast with apple butter, cottage cheese, and strawberries.  To make it pretty, I just cut one of the strawberries up to put on top of the cottage cheese (to break up the extreme white), then I just arranged the food at pleasing angles and garnished with some whole berries.  And a Hello Kitty spoon, of course.


Dinner was delicious!  Spaghetti with meat sauce, and steamed veggies.  I made a super simple (and quick) meat sauce with jarred tomato sauce and ground sirloin.  I just made a nice ball of spaghetti on my plate - simply done by scooping the noodles with tongs and twisting them downward onto the plate - and covered it in the sauce and cheese.  Then I played with my food (yes, you CAN do it!) and arranged my vegetables in a fun way around the edges.  BOOM!  Color contrast, healthy, AND pretty!!

I hope you had a beautiful day, too!  See you tomorrow!

Ithimis!
