Improvising Never Hurts

Day 2 Menu: Rotisserie Chicken and Steamed Broccoli

I happened to have some leftover chicken from Day 1, so instead of going out to buy a rotisserie chicken, I googled "rotisserie chicken" to see exactly what makes a chicken a rotisserie chicken. I took notes from the first recipe I came across from foodnetwork.com and it said that all you do is rub the chicken with olive oil, then season with salt and pepper. Well, I didn't have a whole chicken, just a chicken breast...so I rubbed it with oil and seasoned it with pepper and sea salt. Since I was at work, I was a little limited on supplies (even though we have a full kitchen! Awesome!) I found a mini George Forman grill in one of the cabinets. I threw the chicken breast on the grill and since I had an excess amount of green beans, I decided to steam those instead of buying broccoli. (I'll eat broccoli next chance I get...Not to mention, I'm on a budget!!)

I must say dinner was good, but nothing remarkable. The best part was when my friend Gaby came by and picked me up on my break for coffee at Starbucks. Yes, I had 2 Americano's in 1 day. Only this time I had a Grande! Grande's are reserved for special occasions ;)

Here is a snapshot of what my dinner looked like:::

Like I said, nothing fancy...

I'm being honest when I say I didn't do Day 2's workout. Don't judge, just go with it...I have a full schedule and am always running around (ok, ok, I'm making excuses...but it's TRUE!!) I'll get on a set schedule and be more focused soon enough. But I must say, not too shabby! I'm doing great and feel great!!
