Baked Potato, Glazed Carrots & Lemon Dill Broccoli

Day 214

I would have just had baked potatoes, but I knew we should have some protein, so I also cooked some broccoli. Then I found some carrots that needed to be used up, so I cooked those too. Turned out pretty good.

I served the baked potato with sour cream and chives.

Broccoli & Cauliflower with Lemon Dill Sauce

We had a packet of this International Lemon & Dill sauce in the pantry so I made it to serve over the broccoli and cauliflower. And it was a good choice.

Glazed Carrots

I parboiled the carrots and then transferred them to a frying pan and threw in some butter, brown sugar and balsamic vinegar and finished cooking them in the glaze.

Reviews/Comments

I give the meal a 7 overall. Not bad at all, but a lot of fat and extra calories were added for flavor - mainly butter. So, not the healthiest, but pretty tasty, and sufficient nutrients and protein to top of our day.

Laura thought it was good, and gives it a 7.5.
