Her Thursday Things to Talk About: A BBQ CONTEST!
Morning folks, look what I woke up to this morning:)
Pink and I had a beautiful 20 minute Detox Yoga session with Lisa. I was bummed that I only stretched last night and couldn’t get my Yoga in, oh well it’s only one day. I was pretty sore this morning from yesterday’s hilly run, pigeon pose was a GOOD hurt, if you know what I mean:)
YESTERDAY’S EATS
Snack 10:30am: Greek Yogurt,Granola, and Blueberries
Lunch 1pm: MASSIVE SALAD! Black Eye Peas, WW Pita, and light Laughing Cow Cheese.
Toppings:
4pm Snack: Apple and PB
Yesterday, I was so ready to come home for date night because, for some reason all the kids had the CRAZY bug at school!!!! Hubby and I decided to cook at home for Date Night, not only is it cheaper but it was A LOT more healthier. Thanks for all the ideas for next week!!!
Hubby made his famous vinegar chicken, with green beans, black eye peas, and a bp. The breast of chicken was enough to feed a small tribe of people, hubby had no problem contributing:)
I went to with bbq baked tofu, kale chips(amazing), and some sweet potato fries. The perfect meal! I have yet to have Kale Chips, wow I have been missing out. I love the way they get crunchy in the oven, and I sprinkled with a little parmesan cheese, and it was so TASTEY!
After dinner we played some card games, and watched TBL, and WOW, that’s all I have to say about that episode!!!! Man what a week.
MORNING EATS
I had a peach that was a little too soft to eat, so I decided to add 1/2 of it to my Oats this morning. I shall call this bowl, Peach Cranberry Cobbler!
The Combo:
I think peaches will be around a lot more, it added the perfect texture and sweetness! Check out our sky TODAY! WHAT! I want some sunshine:(
This called for me to wait until tonight for my track workout at the gym, I just wasn’t too motivated. Plus I stayed up real late last night because right before we went to bed Hubby told me some very SAD news, crying before bed is never FUN! It’s nothing to do with us or me, it’s just some news about some friends, that BROKE my heart. I prayed and gave it to God, I know he will help them.
Look who also crashed on us!
CONTEST TIME
Ok, so that BBQ Tofu last night was prepared by Country Bobs' All Purpose BBQ Sauce! The company so graciously sent me two bottles last week, and I LOVE it. I am a big fan off BBQ sauces, and was so happy to be able to cook with it. It’s not a real spicy sauce, it actually has a bit of sweetness to it, which I enjoy more. I have been fortunate to have some true BBQ when living in Memphis, TN and this BBQ sauce is right up there!

Mmmmm, I am wanting to try this Country Bob's. We got a smoker for Christmas and despite still learning how to use it, chicken taste wonderful on it. In honor of "Bob" who gave us the smoker, I think I would try this with some of the smoked chicken and turn it into a pulled chicken sandwich on a w.w. open bun with some slaw salad on the side!
I think I would use Country Bob's as a dipping sauce for some sweet potato fries, tofu, grilled chicken strips. From what I've read on the blogs it works perfectly with almost ANYTHING!
I love your seperator bowl you bring everything for your salad in. I need something like that. :)
Well gosh, with tofu, of course! :) And maybe some tempeh.. mmm...
Definitely want to try it with tofu.. and seitan :) mmmmm
BBQ sauce would go on some grilled chicken....and probably as a dipping sauce for my kids chicken strips....
I would definitely use it w/ tofu and also as a dipping sauce for my chicken!!
My husband loves bbq sauce on his hot dogs - it would be a great addition to our "supply"! Thanks for the contest!
Hi Bobbi. I am a daily reader but I don't think I have ever commented before. I would use Bob's sauce on some yummy baked tofu.
I'm thinking of trying something a little different -I love BBQ pulled chicken and cornbread, so maybe try a sort of BBQ chicken casserole with cornbread topper.
Since it's almost spring, thank goodness, I'd definitely use the BBQ sauce on some salmon on the grill!
BBQ chicken pizza!
I would love to win this sauce! I would try it on smoked chicken, but I would also love to try BBQ tofu.
I would make BBQ Chicken quesadillas with veggies and sharp cheddar. Yum!

I've never used this brand, but I imagine it would be mighty tasty on a burger!
Your salad toppings look fantastic!!
Sending good wishes to your friends too.
The fiancé loves BBQ pork, so that would be my tester dish.
As I am a vegetarian, I would use it with tofu, on meat free burgers or pitta pizzas.
Your salads look a lot like my daily salads :) BIG and bright!
I won a bottle on another blog BUT I would love to win another!! I would probably put it on a veggie burger or something on that order. My husband LOVES sauce so he could find lots of good things to use it with.
This stuff seems to be all the rage latley. I'm looking forward to trying it! I really would like to try it on some salmon baked in the oven. But also with tofu, chicken, and sweet potato fries. Yum!
You're going to make me a better eater yet, Bobbi McCormick. Between yesterday's breakfast cookie & today's kale chips - I've got some new stuff to liven up my stale cookery :)
Yum! All the eats look mighty fine. :D Um, what is vinegar chicken and how does hubs make this?
Sorry to hear about your friends. :( Hopefully everything works out.

The food here today looks delicious Bobbi - you're making me hungry (well...I guess that pretty much happens everytime I visit!)
