Breakfast today was a handful of cashews and dried apricots. Lunch is basically my dinner last night in a new form- i diced up the chicken and made a sort of chicken salad with the guac. Then just put that on top of the sweet potatoes. It's not too shabby. I also have some sugar snap peas and cherries lined up for snacks.
Tonight for dinner (as of right now) I am planning on making a sweet potato hash with onions and bell peppers and topping it with two over-easy eggs. Might throw some spinach in there too... I think I bought too much in one shopping trip, and now it's getting to the brink of going bad
Do you guys have that problem? Buying produce and not using it all in time? I think I may need to start going to the store more frequently and buying only what I'll be using in the coming 3-4 days... I don't know, that most likely won't happen... but I do need to figure out how I can get away from letting things go to waste! Anyone have any tips?0 -
I usually buy a weeks worth of food. But I run into the same problem too. If I find that some of my produce is going bad or looks like it will be soon, I try to incorporate it into all of my meals. Sometimes though, I'll end up having to throw things out which stinks! I try to put some of my veggies in concealed containers. I'm not sure if that helps them last longer, but I feel like that's better than what they come in.0

Yeah... I think I just overestimate how much spinach and avocados I'm going to use each week... and tomatoes. Produce is just so pretty I can't help but buy it! haha
So Day 5 is in the books
Breakfast: An apple and cashews
Lunch: Two stuffed bell peppers with the leftover meat sauce from earlier this week
Dinner: Lemon Garlic tilapia, green cabbage slaw, and roasted potatoes
Going to have a night cap of this raw cookies I found: https://thrivemarket.com/go-raw-organic-raw-ginger-snap-super-cookies?fee=1&fep=826&utm_source=google&utm_medium=pla&utm_campaign=Default Category,Food,Food > Desserts, Sweets & Treats,Food > Desserts, Sweets & Treats > Cookies&utm_content=859888000349-Organic Raw Ginger Snap Super Cookies&gclid=Cj0KEQjw-46sBRD7x6P0stibwbsBEiQAoMi4Zs_61LZQLuk11GNDxXTVFXndX76GknPpwq6E-7-WG0UaAnyD8P8HAQ
They just have coconut, sesame seeds, dates and ginger. Whole 30 approved and pretty good!
Hope you guys are having a good start to your weekend!

I have the same problem with produce. If its spinach, I either saute it or put it in a smoothie. If kale starts to look a little wilted I make some kale chips. If its zucchini or peppers I make roasted vegetables and save to eat over a couple of days...0

How long do you bake your kale chips and at what temperature? I made them once and ended up burning them... but I know I need to give them another try.
So today's eating wasn't the best. Well mostly just dinner. Started the day with a hard boiled egg and a banana. Lunch was shrimp with salsa with strawberries and kiwis on the side. Snacked on some sugar snap peas mid-afternoon. Then dinner was almond milk with two Lara bars out of pure laziness... So delicious though!
But then I was good and cooked legit food for my lunch- Sesame Almond Butter Zoodles with Chicken. So excited for lunch tomorrow! It's exactly what I needed to spice up my eating this week. I'll share the recipe on the Recipe board.0 -

Sesame almond butter doodles sounds great
Had my power smoothie for breakfast. Lunch was a chopped salad with turkey, turkey bacon, bell peppers, banana peppers, onions and homemade balsamic dressing. Also had apple slices with almond butter.
Dinner will be taco salad with salsa. I love ground turkey with homemade taco seasoning. Probably some blueberries0 -
Thanks for that kale chip recipe! I followed it to a t and they came out great! I know completely understand the obsession with them.
This weekend was definitely hard, but I stayed the course. Spending the weekend at my boyfriend's house really tested me, especially when our date night consisted of bowling and a movie (with concession stands that had absolutely nothing for me). Luckily there was a diner just a block from the movie theater and I got an omelette with a side of fruit.
Tonight I had a delicious dinner of scrambled eggs with guac and salsa, with side of kale chips. So good. I think using coconut oil to coat the pan for the scrambled eggs made them creamier. Best eggs I've had in a while.
Spending the night at my parent's tomorrow and my mom even said she would cook any Whole30 meal that I want, woohoo no cooking for me! Picked these Pork Burrito Bowls out on Pinterest, so I am very much looking forward to it. http://thehousewifeintrainingfiles.com/pork-burrito-bowls/
Hope you guys are having a good start to your week. Can't believe I'm already on Day 15!0
