I'm also making kale chips as a crunchy little snack to hold me over until dinner!

Taso: I'm right in the mood for Tazaziki now.

Peachyxo: Almond butter in oatmeal? Genius, why didn't I think of that. Does it dissolve well? And purple chips and mango salsa, something I've had before but quite different then the usual

mbcarreno08: omg lucky charms...I haven't had them in so long...I got all excited at work one day because someone threw a stale packaged Halloween marshmallow candy at me and i ate it because it reminded me of lucky charms hahaha. Whats a black and white cookie at starbucks? Are they good? I go there often but find whenever I try the baked goods they're dry and tasteless.

Sarauk: Holy Latte, What's via, and where do you get toffee cakes? I never see them around here but they sound delicious.

SamanthaAnnM: Tuna hot sauce and cucumber...now that's a combo I'd never put together haha. Love the kale chips.

thelovelyLIZ: "Smashed chickpea and avocado sandwich on sourdough. " <-If this is anything close to the Rachel Ray chickpea burger, yum

Wetterdew: What kind of granola? I find the post honey ones amazing. Need to come up with my own recipe.

cbevan1229: Sunflower seeds, I never thought of adding them to salad, I always eat them plain.

davenportk83: Do you know what I miss? Plane boxes of those kinda hard if they get cold fruit-roll-ups...can't get them here anymore.

AlexPflug: tilapia is something you never see around here.

xarge: I tried Okra for the first time a few weeks ago. Good stuff.

kaervaak

Breakfast - fish oil and a multivitamin (I'm doing intermittent fasting, so no breakfast, but fish oil and vitamin C help regulate cortisol levels which become elevated during a fast).

Lunch - Peach greek yogurt, string cheese, a handful of cherries, a small avocado, 3 roasted chicken thighs, a small salad with feta cheese and honey dijon dressing, a glass of skim milk, 2 tablespoons of peanut butter and some chocolate icecream.

Dinner will probably be a cheese and bacon omelet with some veggies.

tvanhooser

So far peanut butter toast, a small nectarine (we recently discovered a nectarine tree fruiting, hiding behind the detached garage by the back fence. We never knew!! But are very happy about the development. I LOVE nectarines!), an open face tomato and mozzarella sandwich on whole stoneground wheat bread and a whole lot of water. Babyback ribs on the menu for tonight --and I'm sending the kids out to see if there are anymore zucchinis ready to pick in the garden for veg. It's the end of the month and the time to get creative with limited ingredients to clean out the dregs and make room for the new load of groceries on the 1st. So the menu isn't exactly typical, but I think I'm doing pretty well with month end resources!! )

rebeccasedwards

Breakfast-Chocolate Chip Muffin (Hadn't had one in forever)

xarge: I tried Okra for the first time a few weeks ago. Good stuff.

By itself, it's very low on calories but I love the taste ever since I was a kid. It's a good change from common vegetables.

AlexPflug

The tilapia is frozen. We get it at Sam's Club. I am not a fish eater, but it is really tasty with the parmesan crust. I just make sure I have low-cal sides with it.

CoderGal

tvanhooser: I am jealous of your new found nectarine tree. I've been going for walks around campus because there's so many ripe fruit around there, but we don't get things like that here. There's some nice stuff on that trail though: Cracker jacks, juniper berries, blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, partridge berries, bakeapples (berry), cherries, rhubarb, chives, etc. We even came across this weird plant the other day (apparently named after a crazy paranoid gun wielding lady of royalty who use to sneak plant them in friends yards). It was 3 feet high:
