Still working on eating that bucket of organic spring mix lettuce. This time I tried Shrimp Cobb Salad with Cilantro Lime Vinaigrette once again from www.damndelicious.net . This website is ending up being my go-to place for new recipes.
I used Kraft's Italian Zesty Lime dressing as the base and added fresh cilantro and jalapeno pepper. Whipped it all up in the Magic Bullet and voila - Cilantro Lime Vinaigrette. This dressing was very good. I didn't think I would like it because I am not a huge fan of cilantro but the lime and jalapeno seems to mellow out the cilantro flavour.
I really liked this salad with the exception of the boiled egg. I have decided that I don't like boiled eggs in a lettuce salad! Other than that, this recipe is a keeper.
Went to the gym 3 times this week. My back has really been hurting for the last couple of weeks - right behind my right shoulder blade. It didn't hurt when I lifted weights or moved around but as soon as I laid down it hurt so bad that it took my breath away. I went for massage therapy but my back muscles didn't hurt at all when she massaged them. My shoulder and chest muscles hurt like a damn but not my back.
On Tuesday, I was using the weight machine to work my lats and I just let the weight stretch out my arms and back. Seemed to do the trick! I must have just had a nerve that was being pinched when my muscles moved a certain way. That stretch released something. Still hurts for a couple of seconds when I lay down on the bench to do chest presses but otherwise not too bad.
