Liquid Diet

I felt like I was on a Liquid Diet on Wednesday.

Yogurt for breakfast, a smoothie for lunch, and soup for dinner.

My lunchtime smoothie was very simple, but included healthy and moderately filling ingredients.

  • 2 frozen bananas
  • 1 cup of milk
  • 1 tablespoon of peanut butter

Hold up…

Liquid diet?!?!  No thanks!

Can anyone really subsist on liquids alone?  Yogurt, a smoothie, and soup was not enough for me.

I went out for 2nd dinner at Sonsie!

Everyone at the table shared 2 orders of vegetable spring rolls, Vietnamese dipping sauce, lettuce wraps, and fresh mint!

Here’s the  grilled bronzino with soft polenta, ricotta spinach, fresh artichoke, lemon

The entire table debated over exactly what bronzino was.  I voted that it was pork and someone else said it was similar to a chorizo-like sausage.  Jared was brave enough to place an order, and judging a book by its cover and its very visible scales, bronzino was fish!

I ordered ricotta filled gnocchi with  pan toasted purple eggplant parmesan and fresh basil.  SO so good and I had leftovers the next afternoon. :)

I know I always say this, but I really do love dining with friends!  Nonstop talking and laughter.

Jared and I split a strawberry tart filled lemon curd and vanilla rhubarb swirl ice cream.  This was too lemony and sour for me so I didn’t eat very much.

Sonsie was a wonderful dining experience.  But maybe it was the good company that made the food taste even better?!? ;)

    So how did the bronzino taste. I have never heard of this fish, but then again I do not get out that much. Looks like a great time.
