It is delicious.

Her recipe is here.

My version:

  • half pound of chicken breast, diced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp garlic, diced
  • 2 cans Swanson’s reduced sodium chicken broth
  • 1 can diced tomatoes
  • 1 can garbanzo beans
  • 10 frozen Foster Farms Italian turkey meatballs
  • 3/4 cup quinoa
  • 2 carrots, chopped
  • 1 medium zucchini, chopped
  • 1 container Organic Girl Super Greens (red & green swiss chard, kale, & spinach)
  • cayenne, salt, pepper, italian seasoning

In a large pot, heat olive oil, garlic, and add chicken. Saute until chicken is nearly cooked through. Add both cans of chicken broth, tomatoes, and garbanzo beans. Bring this to a boil and add seasonings (as much as desired). Add carrots and zucchini, as well as frozen meatballs. Then, add quinoa. Let simmer for 20-30 minutes. Finally, add super greens and let simmer for 5-10 minutes. Adjust seasoning as necessary. Eat.

Serves 8.

Can I help?! Seriously, can I?

Jbizz, you’re the best. I don’t know that there’s any help for me at the moment. I’m just frustrated. Mrsjdr was just over here trying to talk me out of my overemotional state and trying to convince me that my teaching is fine and I have higher standards for myself than anyone else does.

Which is true. But that doesn’t make it any easier to feel like I’m doing a crappy job teaching math right now. Or that I don’t know where to go or what to do from here in spite of all this data I gathered.

Or that I don’t know what to do next for expedition.

So I just have to go run it out.

But thanks. For reals. <3

Girl, you gotta get those emergency sub plans in place.

Eh, I gotta get my kids ready for that observed lesson anyway.

Grawr. I think it’s my bedtime. Actually, I know it’s past my bedtime.

Mine would be Ultimate tailgating.

I would be on your team for this event.

You’re tough for doing pilates. I did one class and gave up.

Did you do it with a machine or on the floor? I think the mat/floor classes are harder… because I have tried floor Pilates and it made me want to die.

I’ll come to Colorado and meetup if we go to a Bronco’s game.

Done. I’m not even kidding. My family has season tickets.
