Hello friends!
After three weeks of nonstop travel, moving, and many meals out, tonight I wanted nothing more than my favorite quick, healthy, comforting solo dinner.
Behold:
Mmmm… sweet potato topped with baked beans and a generous sprinkle of cumin — how I missed this. The star:
This time I wasn’t eating alone — Matt was here too. He said it sounded odd, but agreed to try it.
The verdict: “Unique… yet satisfying!” Success. I hope he’s ready for more of my unconventional meals now that we live together.
On the side we had raw sugar snap peas — love the crunch.
For dessert, juicy grapes:
Yum. Best dinner ever. After weeks of indulgence, there’s something wonderful about returning to a favorite, healthy comfort meal.
What’s your go-to “I’m home alone and no one else cares” dinner? How do you get back on track after indulging?

On another note, orientation at UNC went really well and I’m excited to start classes tomorrow and begin this new chapter. I have a full day of preparation ahead, so I’m off to get ready, but I’ll be back tomorrow with a recap and details about my classes this semester. Also, my “5-minute packable lunches” series returns tomorrow — I’ll share quick, easy lunch ideas you can make in minutes.
