    Breakfast (extra early): coffee flavored Greek yogurt, 2 boiled eggs & coffee

    Lunch: kid's-size thin crust pizza with marinara, loads of veggies & light on the mozzarella

    Post-hike snack: XL cold brew coffee & a lemon filled donut. Drank TONS of water before & after this because I hiked 11 miles in super hot temps.

    Dinner: shared a large appetizer sampler with my husband...tabouleh, dolmas, hummus & pita, falafel & baba ganoush plus some mixed greens. It was all so good! Then we split a little piece of pistachio baklava & I had 2 cups of Earl Grey tea.

    Eat two times in an eight hour window each day while fasting the other sixteen hours. I'm a guy so I can eat the same thing over and over again a lot :)

    Breakfast: what's that?
    Lunch: Five scrambled eggs cooked with 1 Tbsp butter, five bacon, ketchup on eggs (yummy to me)
    Dinner: On seasoned chicken breast (pressure cooked 10 min), fav bbq sauce on side, steam fresh veggie (broccoli, creamed spinach, red potatoes, 5 min in microwave), desert 6 chips with guacamole or air popped popcorn with butter.

    LCHF works for me.

    Peace Out!

    I've never heard of garlic tea before!

    This is not the garlic tea I drink, https://www.amazon.com/Garlic-Certified-Organic-Tea-bags/dp/B008X8KQ96?th=1
    but will tell you a wee bit about it. The garlic tea I drink is "loose" not tea bags ( I put it in a teaball and steep it for a while), but I LOVE it!!!! I don't drink it (or the other teas I drink) because it's suppose to help with (fill in the blank) I drink garlic tea and other exotic teas because I LOVE GARLIC (and exotic teas) so much and it tastes and is garlic--nothing else-I drink this and other teas straight, nothing at all added, because I like it that way, this garlic tea is just (concentrated dried garlic chips and again, I love it!!!

    I get mine from the health food store. The teas I drink do/can have side-effects, and this garlic tea does too--so I don't drink it everyday or a lot of it...here's more info on garlic tea:

    Breakfast: toast with mayo, mustard, pickles & a fried egg. Coffee.

    Lunch: homemade split peas with onion & carrot, smoothie made from 1 banana, frozen strawberries, hemp protein & unsweetened almond milk.

    Dinner: spaghetti with tomato sauce & TVP, topped with mozzarella. 2 large pieces of mine run candy (similar to Violet Crumble, but made locally)

    I've tried making spaghetti sauce with TVP, do you hydrate yours first before putting it into the sauce? Or do you sprinkle it in dry and let it soak and cook?

    I asked my husband, because I have never cooked with it - he puts the dry TVP into the sauce but he uses almost twice as much tomato sauce as he would have otherwise, since the TVP will absorb a lot of it. He uses 1/2 cup TVP and 2 small cans of tomato sauce to start with (16 oz I think).
