Do elaborate on the chicken...

It is from "Practical Paleo" and you can find the recipe with a little review here. Easy and quite yummy - I've made it with capers and without and like both equally well.

B: 3 eggs scrambled with lox, blueberries, one slice of Ezekial raisin toast
did a 12K fairly strenuous x country ski, during which time I ate a Luna Bar
L: There was a line snaked around the lodge to get food (which is very good), so we headed back toward home and stopped at a place we've gone to on rides, in Groton, but it's not open Sundays, when we are usually driving/riding by. I had a bowl of butternut squash soup, and DH and I shared a "pizzeta," which was a mini pizza, with tomatoes, artichoke hearts, proscuitto. I had 2, 4 inch pieces.

D: friends came over for dinner. As usual, the skiing made me ravenous, so I probably ate too many appetizers, some Machengo cheese, yellow pepper, and hummus. Had one chicken thigh with a spicy rub, roasted asparagus, sweet potato, and a green salad with vinaigrette, 2 glasses of red wine. Had a very small amount of chocolate and chocolate chip gelato.

Today:

60 minute hard group training session, 15 minute lifting challenge
Post workout snack - boiled egg and 1/2 banana
L: lemon-artichoke baked chicken and roasted mashed sweet potato
D: Moroccan meatballs with roasted broccoli, brussel sprouts, and 1/2 roasted sweet potato

I really enjoyed the meatballs, half went into the freezer and saved 3 servings for the next couple of days. Recipe here, I used ground pork instead of lamb.
