Runny egg. Cheesy polenta. Salty olives. I should just end this post after those six words. I can’t even begin to tell you how hard it was to photograph this Poached Egg over Polenta with Olive-Herb Pesto without drooling all over it or my camera. I mean it was painful. Food bloggers always joke about never being able to eat a hot meal and gosh if it isn’t so true! Watching that yellow yolk ooze out over the creamy polenta almost did me in. You better believe I set my camera down (after a bajillion pics, amiright?!) and instantly grabbed a spoon. Heaven. Salty, creamy, cheesy, eggy heaven.

I know you’re like me and sometimes you find a recipe in a magazine or on another blog and you can’t get it out of your mind. That’s how I felt with Roasted Zucchini and Ricotta Sandwiches. I could not stop thinking about how awesome this sandwich might taste. You see I’m a roasted veggie junkie, and my veggies of choice most times are zucchini and yellow squash. Roasting veggies brings out their flavor big time and it’s such an easy way to prepare veggies so you don’t have to babysit while they cook.

A few weekends ago I was at my mom’s house and I wanted to cook something figure-friendly, but it had to be something we’d both enjoy. Sometimes low calorie versions of your favorite foods don’t quite taste as good as the original. Since my mom isn’t concerned with calories like I am, it had to taste good for her, too. We found this awesome recipe for vegetarian Stuffed Shells that was full of cheese and yummy veggies, and under 400 calories per serving. I’d say we both came out winners with this one!
