Hoisin Salmon and Pearl Couscous

Mr. Gaunt is back from New Mexico..yay! My weekend without him was actually pretty ok, I went out with friends on Friday and Saturday and did some house work and grocery shopping on Sunday. I also hit up Savers and got some cute dresses that I will share tomorrow. I also made a huge pot of this soup which I ate all weekend, so yummy, and not too bad for yah.

Tonight we are just keeping it low-key, I got a pretty nasty cold this weekend that seems to only be getting worse, boo. This weekend I picked up this Basil and Herb Pearl Couscous. I’ve never made Couscous but it looked pretty yummy, and nutrition wise it’s not too bad, a little high in calories but also high in fiber and protein.

Mr. Gaunt LOVES weird things like Italian Wedding Soup and Gnocchi so I figured he would like the little pearls. He did. I also made Hoisin Salmon which is super easy. I literally rub Hoisin Sauce all over a salmon filet and bake for 20 minutes at 350. We are really trying to do more salmon and less Tilapia. Anyways food was on the table by 5:30!

For desert I had Fat Free Raspberry Sorbet with honey (honey on sorbet is sooo good! It gets chewy!) and a Vanilla Pizzelle cookie. I buy these at Whole Foods and they are the BEST! They taste like a fresh waffle cone, and they are only 23 Calories and 1 gram of fat per cookie. Be careful though, they are addictive.
