What did you eat today?

[Catrin]

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

Today:
B: basil/tomato frittata slice, bowl of raspberries and strawberries, one slice raisin toast
S: ate a piece of home made banana bread before a 9k snow shoe. It was hard because of the mushy snow and the fact I was getting a blister. Well, it ended up being a "pre-blister," but I was not happy.

Yesterday:

B: more multiple veggie/ground pork/sweet potato baked egg casserole. I love how it came out this time, slice bacon and coffee
1 hour group training session followed by a bit of running and then a protein shake
L: chocolate chili over spaghetti squash
S. Small piece of same egg casserole from brekkie
D: very last of the chocolate chili over a big pile of sauteed chard and other greens. 13 grams 85% dark chocolate for dessert

[Crankin]

B:half a sweet potato, turkey burger patty, an orange, coffee
an hour step/sculpt class. hard and I have to concentrate way too much as I hardly do this
S: banana
L: chicken salad with almonds and dried cranberries on butter lettuce
S: an apple
D: "tacos" from Nom Nom Paleo... basically grass fed ground beef with chili and other seasoning on butter lettuce, with grilled scallops, topped with guacamole. side of sliced mango, glass of red wine. The tacos were really filling. The recipe called for shrimp, but I'm allergic, so I used the scallops

[Catrin]

B: more of my current veggie loaded egg casserole, bacon and coffee
hard group training session followed by protein shake
L: roast chicken over greens, a winter veggie soup (basically an assortment of squash and onion)
S: chicken hearts sauteed with leeks, mushrooms, chard, spices, baby kale

This is the first time I've been brave enough to try chicken hearts - much easier to eat than liver! Not bad, I couldn't find a recipe that looked good to me so I just threw it together with things I thought would be good - I did have hot sauce ready just to be safe The chicken hearts were from pastured chicken, and organ meat just has so much nutrition!

Those tacos are great, aren't they Crankin? I love her recipes, I've yet to find one I don't like, her cookbook and Well Fed (1&2) are my go-to cookbooks. I still search NomNom's website as well, they aren't all in her cookbook
