It was a HECTIC morning here, pals. I'm hoping to get back on track during the rest of the day. I'm also trying to eat all of the stuff I've hoarded in the freezer and pantry, in preparation for an outrageous Trader Joe's trip next week -- the closest one is four hours away, so I never get to go. I'm planning to clean the place out!

Breakfast: Two-thirds of a cheddar-bacon brat (leftover from weekend meals), small banana muffin eaten in the car, a couple sips of iced moka (left the rest to slowly melt on the counter).

Lunch: will be lobster ravioli in tomato-and-greens sauce, baby carrots, and snow peas.

Dinner: will be steak-and-potato soup, raw broccoli and cauliflower, and garden tomatoes.

Snacks: green apples, Red Vines, popcorn, sunflower seeds. (Not all at once; that's just what I've got to choose from.)

    Made a low sodium, low’ish carb because of the noodles.... ramen bowl from scratch. The broth took me about 30mins to prep and cook. Good stuff! #keepmovingforward

    Fun question - I enjoyed reading everyone's replies. For me, it was two soft boiled eggs for breakfast, 1/2 cup cottage cheese for morning snack. 3oz ham with 1 cup yellow beans for lunch. 1/4 cup Chapman's no-sugar vanilla ice cream with 1/2 cup strawberries for afternoon snack. Grilled pork chop with steamed broccoli, cauliflower and more yellow beans (problem with gardens is you have to eat things when they're 'on'). Evening snack will be a 'Wheat Belly Cookbook' carrot muffin, made with almond meal and ground flax seed.
  • Breakfast: Oatmeal with protein powder
    Lunch: Peanut butter sandwich, fage yogurt, clementines
    Dinner: Veggie burger topped with mayo, dill pickles, tomatoes. And a kiwi.
