Dinosaur Diet: Chilli and Garlic Chicken Salad

Three days in and my Dinosaur Diet is going swimmingly.
No cheating at all. I mean, food-wise. Last night I was out and had wine. But I did so much better than the co-workers I was out with. I am totally going to win this damn challenge.


Tonight's meal:

Chilli and Garlic Chicken Salad (ish).

Ingredients:
2 chicken breasts
2 tbsp olive oil
1 chilli, chopped
4 garlic cloves, chopped
6 tbsp lemon juice
Baby spinach
Slivered almonds

Preheat the oven to 180c/350f.
Mix all the oil, chilli, garlic, and lemon juice together. Slice the chicken breast, lay in a greased oven pan and pour over the sauce, making sure to cover it all.
Bake for 30-40 minutes.
Serve over a "salad" of baby spinach and top with toasted slivered almonds.

- if I had thought in advance I would've added some red capsicum and paleo-mayonnaise. Eh. It was still really good.

Mr Man took the day off work so under a darkening sky I made my own way home.


Tuesday
Golden dawn as seen through half-open blinds.


Wednesday
I picked this book because of the beautiful cover. Thankfully, as often is the case, judging a book by the cover paid off.


Thursday
My design-y fake tattoos from Tattly arrived. I cannot wait to try them out.
Including the knuckle tattoos. Especially the knuckle tattoos*.


Friday
Work drinks were relocated to the Matterhorn. I saw this graffiti on the way.


Saturday
The day was soft and warm. The lichen and the clouds and the soft soft light.
