What did you eat today?

[Crankin]

I liked the stew, even though I thought it had a slightly odd taste. I seasoned it more, and that went away. DH liked it, too.
I can buy suflower butter without sugar at the natural foods store, which is very close to me, but in the other direction from my grocery store and TJs. Very expensive, but worth it for the few things I need to get there. I buy my almond butter there, too.

half a banana before boot camp
B: protein shake, egg whites with smoked salmon and 1/4 avocado, coffee
L: lamb burger patty on a tomato, mixed salad
about a half hour of shoveling
S: an apple with almond butter
D: I unfroze one of the Well Fed dishes I made 2 wks ago. I can't remember the name, but it was Indian food/chicken. Had some zucchini "noodles" with it. 2 squares dark chocolate

rest day
B: last of the 2 salmon patties and left over mashed parsnips, an orange, coffee
L: salad with chicken, avocado, tomato, red peppers, vinaigrette, handful of pecans
coffee
D: I made the moo-shu pork, wrapped in butter lettuce from the Well Fed 2, with the Well Fed hoisin sauce. I didn't have any cabbage, so I used the last of the zucchini noodles instead. It was really filling and there's enough left for another meal. 2 squares dark chocolate.
The weather is iffy for our trip to the Berkshires, at least for x country skiing, so we aren't leaving until 2. We'll only have one dinner and breakfast there, and then head off to snow shoe on Sunday. Hope to actually have a relaxing time.

Today:

B: Multiple veggie/sweet potato/pork baked egg casserole, 1 slice bacon, coffee
1 hour hard group training that featured lots of kettlebells and burpees (among other things). Followed by my prescribed running for the day and a protein shake
L: home made cacao chili over more sauteed multiple veggies
S: 1 beer with a 13 grams of 85% dark chocolate
D: planning on a baked sweet potato and some braised beef roast. I used my favorite cumin/coffee/cacao rub before setting the "boiling beef" to braise. I've not head that term before and am unsure if that cut has another name. As it is grass-fed I added some bone broth to my braising dutch oven so it won't be dry. The cut was certainly far more affordable than other grass-fed roasts, which is why I am trying it
