What did you eat today?

[Crankin]

My dinner last night was great, but way too much food and I ate all of it.

2 Carta Blanca beers
chilli rellenos, one filled with potato and spinach, the other with meat (chorizo?), rice and refried beans.
I left a little of the beans, but otherwise, my plate was clean.

Did not feel so great when I woke up. Back to clean eating.

D ice cream sandwich

S almonds, raisins and dried cranberries, and an orange

Breakfast today was steel cut oats in which I added frozen cherries and a few other berries. Not as good as I thought, but as I made enough for the next few days...added skim milk

S: Kefir

L: Roasted skinless chicken breast sandwich with TJ sprouted wheat bread and a piece of white cheddar cheese

S: Cliff bar

18 mile bike ride

D: Making a wonderful stuffed pepper dish - but chopped the peppers instead of stuffing them. Tempeh, corn, black beans, onion, garlic, green chilies, marinara sauce, assorted spices, chopped sweet roasting peppers. Also goes well with shredded chicken

Snack later - probably either an apple or orange.

B- cornflakes with skim milk, tea with milk
Lunch- borek with spinach and feta. I think it's a Turkish dish, it's like a very thin pita like bread that's heated up with filling and very flat. with hot peppery tomato sauce on side.

1 coffee with milk
Half chocolate truffle tarte shared with dearie -Valentine's gift

Supper- He's throwing together kohl rabi, fennel bulb, and whatever for dish. Will have leftover elk wine sauce over noodles probably.

Will end with fresh fruit.

I need to get "back on the wagon" when it comes to veggies! We haven't really been shopping this week, so the only veggies in the fridge are a questionable-looking bell pepper and three rather limp carrots.

B: Tea with milk and sugar, steel cut oats with PB and 2 teaspoons of sugar.
L: Bagel with smoked salmon cream cheese.
S: One white fudge Oreo and an apple
D: 6-7oz steak, baked potato. We were going to have broccoli, but it was...fuzzy.
D: 3-inch across chocolate cake. It was filled with some kind of chocolate goo. I ate the cake, but not the goo. Too rich.

I need to get "back on the wagon" when it comes to veggies! We haven't really been shopping this week, so the only veggies in the fridge are a questionable-looking bell pepper and three rather limp carrots.

It's a good idea to keep frozen veggies on hand for times like these. We buy organic veggie blends (plus plain broccoli cuts and green beans) at the food co-op, so we are never totally without a veg. choice for dinner. Often frozen veggies are higher in vitamins and minerals than fresh, particularly if you can't shop at a farmer's market. When veggies have to be shipped long distances, then sit in your fridge for days, they can lose nutritional value quickly.

My weekend was a disaster since we had a guest at the house that likes to eat out and eat a lot.

Saturday:
Coffee
B: Two eggs, 1 piece toast, 1/2 slice ham and hashbrowns at a local restaurant, OJ

Lunch: Bowl of chicken noodle soup, apple, beer

Dinner: Big plate of mexican food, chicken tacos, beans, rice and wonderful margarita.

Sunday:
B: Cereal (wheat chex and milk), coffee, oj

Lunch: Nothing till around 3:00 as we went on a long motorcycle ride; then ate a HUGE hamburger and fries at the Haunted Hamburger.

Dinner - One glass of wine - i could not eat anything more after that burger and fries!

Today:

B oatmeal with blueberries and pecans

S multigain bread with PB

L frozen veggie lasagna and a slice of bread

S dried fruit and nut bar, a plum, and an orange

D burrito with broccoli, brown rice, beans, guacamole, sour cream, salsa

S almonds, pecans, dried cranberries and raisins

I need some mo. Wish I had a yogurt in the house. Maybe I'll dig into the mango sorbet.

ETA, I had a small bowl of oatmeal with blueberries instead of the mango sorbet. I felt very depleted from my windy commute.
