  • Lol - you are correct! I used tuna in water but I drain it.
  • I was thinking I’d stay closer to 1500/1600 but I just want to be healthy. I’m leaving my goal at 0.5 lbs a week

  • These would be great on a toasted English muffin or bun as well!
  • I love a spinach salad with spinach/mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, red onion, cucumber, and then to make it varied, switch it up with different mixed of dried cranberries, turkey breast/chicken, croutons, avocado, strawberries, feta).
