Since I got a FREE dinner, I want to know what YOU'RE having!
I received a FREE burrito from Chipotle as a gift for Gold's Gym members. So, I had a vegetarian burrito. I'm not the world's biggest Chipotle fan since there are better options here, but this was a good burrito. Better that it was FREE! :9

2. It's St Joseph's Day, so the traditional pasta with sardines and toasted bread crumbs.
I hated it as a kid but love it now.

Enjoy the burrito - and the gym!

3. Grilled cheese and tomato sandwich with cole slaw
I put the slaw IN the sandwich! Plus some Stella Artois (it's our weekly writer's group/pub night). Somehow it doesn't sound as healthful as going to the gym and eating a vegetarian burrito, though.

4. I prefer the burrito bowls or the crunchy tacos. I LOVE their guacamole, I must admit.
Tonight I'm making a big dinner salad with leftover rotisserie chicken, avocado, greens, tomatoes, cukes, red onion, etc. I got some delicious whole grain bread from the local bakery and I'm going to top a couple slices with olive oil, goat cheese and fresh thyme before I stick them in the oven to crisp up.

6. I'd have rather had the bowl too, but the coupon specified burrito.

9. If you ever get another one of those, the people at Chipotle will usually make you
what you want, even if the coupon specifies otherwise. I got one of those from work and asked nicely if I could have a bowl instead and they said "no problem." Everything there is about the same price anyway, it shouldn't be any skin of their noses (but I know some places do get weird and picky). Anyway, I'm glad you enjoyed your dinner! Free is always good! :hi:

12. Oh, now that sounds delicious.
I had these slider-type sandwiches for lunch today, except they were filled with pulled pork. Served with chips and slaw.

14. Prepare yourself for the envy you're about to feel.
Avgolemono Soup

Dolmas

All homemade and all totally kick ass. :9

15. I WAS going to have red beans and rice with andouille sausage.
But free burrito won out.

*thud*

Delayed envy, sorry.

I will be there in early April. Plan your grocery shopping accordingly. I *may* bring a guest (if she's lucky ;)).

16. Portobello fajitas, black beans, and maybe a salad.
But probably not the salad- I'd have to go to the store and I don't really feel like it.
