    Welcome home SG! Gosh, I love all your travels. Exciting! I mean, not for me, bc I'd be worn out, lol, but I love the vicarious thrill of it :D.

    Danny, high recommend on the avocado toast, especially with a whole tomato charred in the pan with an olive oil cooked egg :)!

    New week for me - Imma improve those weekly numbers of mine, for my Greens, Freggies, and Nuts/Seeds/Legumes count! *I solemnly swear* (Hogwarts-ism lol)

    Wow @mkksemail - you are inspiring! I'm shopping tomorrow for my grees and going to have the avocado toast for breakfast! Yum! I have a huge Florida avocado ready to eat. When I go to Sam's club, I buy a bag with 6 of them. I make sure they are very firm. Then store them behind the toaster on the counter for a couple days. When they feel ready to eat, they get moved to the fridge and keep for days. They always seem to stay nice. I eat one a day.
    I need to start adding in broccoli again but it may be too gassy for me(
    Cheers!

    Ohhh, @aalley5 , good tip on the avocados ! They seem to have a very short 'ripe' window, lol ... I didn't try putting them in the fridge once they get there. I will try that next week. We used up the last avocado this morning, and didn't buy any new ones when we went shopping on Sunday ...


    Monday Greens! Avocado toast, and a smoothie ... Starting the week off strong, tick mark for all three categories :D!

    I had avocado toast this morning :D. No picture today, I figured you guys are probably sick of pictures of avocado toast by now, heh.

    I *did* make a smoothie tho!! Yayyyyy (Hubby said it was really good, too ... ) It's been a couple weeks since I made one 😬 ... and I forgot to put the carrot in 🥕 🤦‍♀️. Ingredients:
    • Organic Spring Mix
    • Mango
    • Kiwi
    • Berry Medley Mix (frozen)
    • Pure Peanut Powder
    • Unsweetened Vanilla Oat Mil
    • A bit of water, to 'clean' out the blender ...

    Plus, NOT in the blender, but on the side ;-):
    • Merkt's Swiss Almond Cheese Spread,
    • Brad's Sea Salt Cauliflower Crackers,
    • Walnuts

    This morning I had half of a beautiful Florida avocado, banana, English muffin with manuka honey and cinnamon. I eat the avocado on the side to prevent it from cooling off my toast :)
    To store the other half of avocado, I squirt it with lemon juice, after removing the pit and skin.

    Nice, @aalley5 !!!! You are giving me so much inspiration!!

    And btw, those Oui Pots - damn those things are good, aren't they?! LOL I brought some home on a whim a few weeks ago, hubby went nuts for them. He restocked with a couple dozen more on Sunday, lol.


    So far today, a banana in my cheerios! More to come .... !

    Edit - ps! Love the tip on storing the other half of the avocado!!

    Smoothie & Almonds for dinner! It came out sooo thick, and it filled 4 glasses, instead of 2 glasses 😮. Oops. lol It was soooooo thick that I wanted to add another 8z of milk, plus the usual 4z of water that I use to get the bits out of the blender, but instead of grabbing the unsweetened oat milk, as intended, I grabbed the nonfat organic cow's milk instead. Oops again! I ended with a blender of very foamed up milk and water mixture, that I just added on top 🤷‍♀️.

    Ingredients:
    • salad mix (greens, cabbage, lettuce, spinach)
    • apples (macoun & honeycrisp)
    • bosc pear
    • mango
    • carrot (remembered carrot today!)
    • pure peanut powder
    • unsweetened vanilla oat milk
    • nonfat organic cow's milk
    • water

    Wednesday Greens/Freggies/Nuts Etc!
    • Banana and cheerios for breakfast again 🍌 🥣
    • Protein tea for lunch 🍵
    • Smoothie and rotisserie chicken for dinner.
    I'll have some kind of nuts or seeds later, so I can get that tick off mark for today, too 😁. Today's smoothies are huge again - I have a whole bunch of fruit all starting to go, all at the same time :p. That's what I get for not making smoothies as soon as I bought the stuff! Hubby said today's are the weirdest looking ones so far - there are grapes in there, so it's purple, with black flecks throughout. He said it looks like an alien drink 👽🤣.

    Ingredients:
    • Salad mix (greens, cabbage, carrots, spinach, lettuce),
    • Purple Grapes
    • Red Pears
    • Mango
    • Pure Peanut Powder
    • Horlicks (shhh, don't judge, lol!)
    • 16z Unsweetened Vanilla Oat Milk
    • 4z water

    I used more oat milk than usual bc yesterday's were so thick, lol.

    Ohhhh, your plates look delicious, @aalley5 !!

    Today's smoothie was Salad Mix, Macoun Apple, D'angou Pear, Kiwi, Unsweetened Almond Milk, Water, & Pure Peanut Powder.

    Hubby said the alien one with the grapes was actually pretty good. I told him it had Horlick's in it ... he put Horlick's in his tonight smoothie :). He's Type 1 diabetic, and his sugar was dropping, so he needed the sugar boost anyway :).

    I took a pic, but I'm so tired :p. No pic post today (can't post pix on Android phones, I have to download my Pixel pic to my laptop, from the cloud, then upload here ... blech don't want to tonight, heh )

    Cheers!

    Oooo, delicious looking !!
    We went out to dinner, it was National Pasta day, so I got chicken parm :p. My only ''hits" today were breakfast banana with my Cheerios, and tomato sauce with my dinner.

    Not a banner day, but not a barren day!

    oooo those roasting veggies are making my mouth water, @SafariGalNYC !! And your artichoke, potatoes, beets, and more plate is so creative, @Aalley5!

    My today was a repeat of yesterday. Working on a shelving project with hubby this weekend, so pretty busy today.

    Banana, and tomato sauce for me. Not a banner day, but not a barren day !!

    It's very late on Saturday night, so I'll be early for Sunday, and say Happy Sunday!

    Shelf/project craziness today. I didn't manage a banner day, SG, but I did manage to not have a barren day again. No barren days all last week. I got tick marks on 7 of 7 days for at least some of the things :D.

    I'll update tomorrow. Tooooo tired right now! Going for another week! @aalley5 @SafariGalNYC @dannytrees1 .... loooovee the gorgeous food photos! Yummy, and wow, the green of that broccoli is jumping right out at me!

    Going to have to have some broccoli this week, joining the broccoli train ...

    Tuesday check-in, I jumped on the broccoli train! I was so tired today, from the last few days of projects. I wanted something warm and comforting for my first meal of the day, after my usual protein tea breakfast. I almost made an egg & cheese sandwich again, but then I remembered that I love having oatmeal and other breakfast grains, in the fall ... so ... Whole grain cream of wheat with a serving each of pitted dates, and walnuts, for lunch :), protein tea for breakfast, and broccoli and cheese stuffed breaded chicken breast, with a full serving of broccoli on the side. I'll update my tick marks tomorrow.

    Hubby's away until Friday, so I'll be splitting two broccoli stuffed chicken breasts into three servings, and have that for Tue-Wed-Thu dinner, with broccoli on the side at least two of the days, maybe sweet potato on the third :).

    Cream of wheat, with dates & walnuts, and broccoli & cheese stuffed chicken breast, with broccoli side, before going in the oven. 1/3 of the broccoli will be set aside, and 1/3 of the chicken as well, 2/3 of each are tonight's dinner ~

    Edit - cooked and plated! 2/3 for dinner, 1/3 in fridge ~
