What did you eat today?

Thanks for the inspiration, Catrin. I have a pot of Rogon Josh on the stove right now. I didn't use the same recipe, and I decided to spring for the lamb (cause I love it!). It needs to simmer more, and I'm not going to serve it until tomorrow, but I'm already happy with the results!

I've never actually had it at a restaurant, so I don't know if what I made was really like it but I really enjoyed the flavors from the recipe I used.

I tried the Egg Foo Yong recipe out of Well Fed tonight - very nice! Half of it will be for breakfast tomorrow.

B- cornflakes with fresh pineapple pieces and fresh raspberries with a dollop of yogurt and skim milk. Tea with skim milk.
Snack - an almond croissant and coffee with milk at bakery where I biked to.
Dinner- stir fried broccoli, pepper, shanghai bok choy, ginger root, garlic, onion with light noodles.

Snack-cornflakes with milk. (Ok, I ate dinner at 5:00 pm). It seemed right after several hrs. of dirty fingers from doing some art work.

L: left over fresh tuna with mayo and an orange, 8 oz. almond milk
14 mile ride, hilly, but not fast
D: turkey meatloaf with red and green pepper, cauliflower "mashed potatoes", glass of red wine

Sweet Potato Waffles sound good Crankin! If I had a waffle iron...but what I need more is a potato ricer or some other tool that will allow me to shred sweet potatoes and squash properly for hash. I prefer the shredded rather than diced version.

Yesterday:

B: eggs scrambled with pre-cooked ground pork and coffee
1 hour intense Funday workout
S: macadamia nuts and a few dried cherries
L: mustard glazed roasted chicken thighs, roasted kale and chard, 1 slice paleo banana bread
S: 1 beer (Founders Breakfast Stout)
D: Egg Foo Yong with special sauce - quite good!

Today:
B: Last of the Egg Foo Yong
1 hour group training session - even more intense than yesterday, it finished with my doing a Farmer's Carry with two 50 pound kettlebells for 200 meters!
S: egg whites and 1/2 small baked yam
L: Planning on roasted chicken, the rest of the small baked yam, and sauteed brussel sprouts - offices closed due to snow until 1
D:? Who knows? Time will tell. Probably some thawed beef tips and a salad.

L: 1/2 chicken breast

Like a cheese grater? I usually use one like this that I got at the grocery store:

Or, if I'm doing it in quantity, the shredding disk on my food processor. And I use the regular food processor blade to make cauliflower 'rice'. It's ridiculously messy, so I don't do it very often.

I was good all weekend but I don't remember what I ate so I'm not going to record it here. I will say that I am quite proud that I was able to steer clear of any treats (or sugar) this weekend even on the heels of my indulgence on Thursday night. I certainly had a lot of sugar thoughts and cravings, but I didn't cave and I think that today, I'm past it. Phew!

B: last piece of sausage, kale and onion frittata, avocado, pineapple, black coffee
L: sausage and cabbage 'noodles'. clementines
S: hard boiled egg, banana (if I need this)
D: chicken and veggie stir fry - I'm trying the stir fry sauce from Well Fed for the first time. Hope it's good!

Oh, Catrin - I made that banana bread recipe you linked to use up 4 brown bananas. It was REALLY good! Even my non-paleo husband liked them. I added chopped walnuts and nutmeg and made them into muffins and they worked great. Luckily, I have a lot silicone muffin cups because I needed all 18 of them to use up all the batter!
