Fantastic Waffle Breakfast/Leftover Dinner

I bring my breakfast to work every day. I do this for a couple of reasons. I am always making my kids lunches in the morning, ironing clothes, finding socks, etc… and there is never enough time to sit. Also, if I eat at work, its usually about 9:00 a.m. and it will usually be the only thing I will have until lunch so I like to make it totally deluxe. I’ve been doing oatmeal recently but decided to have waffles instead. I had Fit and Active Brand Waffles from Aldi. They are 100 calories each and I had 2. Then I saw I had turkey sausages, which you get 3 links for only 110 calories. When I got to work, I put it all together.

With the 2 waffles, 1/4 cup sugar free syrup, 3 turkey sausage links, 1 banana, and a few slivered almonds on top, I felt like I had ordered this from a restaurant! And all this came in at around 420 calories!!

Since its towards the end of the week, it was leftover night at my house. The funny thing is I had bought these vegetables on the dollar rack at my grocery store. I thought they were zucchini, but when I got to the register, I asked the lady what kind of vegetable they were and she told me in Spanish, so I have no idea. Its not zucchini, its not a cucumber. I thought maybe an English cucumber? It is more melon tasting than a cucumber. Anyway, I peeled it and drizzled Annie’s Green Goddess dressing on top. It was pretty good!

So I had a small chicken breast, some left over mac and cheese from the other night and the mystery veggie! If anyone knows what kind of veggie that could be, please let me know! This is what the veggie looked like before I peeled it.
