Not feeling so well today. My stomach was off Sat. and Sunday, but after breakfast today, it was really off and I had to take meds so I could leave for work. Rest day today, I am exhausted from 3 days in a row of winter sports. I feel like the intense exercise is setting off my symptoms from a few years ago, but also, today is the day I had to start telling my clients I am leaving, which=stress.
B: 4 ham roll ups with light veggie cream cheese and walnuts, an orange, coffee. Then, I felt sick, so I had a half a piece of dry matzah before leaving. It's the only thing that helps when I feel this way.
L: I ate some plain chicken breast shredded over left over salad DH made for dinner at friends Sat. I ate the chicken, just a little of the veggies. Half an apple
S: Lara Bar
D: I couldn't face the dinner I had planned, so I had wagon wheel pasta (yes, real, white pasta) with olive oil and cheese, and one left over lamb burger patty.Lots of seltzer water. Feel much better!

My new non-farm blog: Finding Freedom
NomNom's spicy tuna cake recipe is here - scroll down. Her recipes are always image heavy, and her cookbook is the same way. I DO have "It Starts With Food", it's been so long since I last looked at it that I had actually forgotten there were recipes...
NomNom has a spicy shrimp recipe as well that I want to try, if I don't make it tomorrow then will do so this coming weekend. Yesterday I braised a large pastured pork shoulder roast, but I do like to have a choice of protein so I don't have to eat the same thing for every meal.
Today:
B: 2 egg pulled pork/spinach scramble with fermented veggies and coffee
40ish minute home workout - very thankful for my Jungle Gym and kettlebell in this weather!
L: 2 spiced tuna cakes, roasted kale. The kale was a bit...over-roasted but I ate it anyway. More like kale charcoal...
D: pulled pastured pork, small baked sweet potato, 2 dark chocolate squares

B: shredded wheat, milk, coffee
Snack: Granola bar
L: leftover beef stew
D: tomato meat sauce, pasta, sprinkle parmesan, salad with spinach, cuc, yellow bellpepper, vinaigrette, 1 glass red wine
2 orange slices (the candy ones)
B: 2 eggs over easy, 2 slices uncured bacon, 1/4 avocado, strawberries, coffee
L: salad with spinach, lettuce, tuna, grape tomatoes, fig vinegar, an apple
D: I made the Nom Nom Paleo chicken with tomato chili salsa. Basically you cook some broccoli florets, dump some left over shredded chicken over it, add guacamole, salsa, and halved grape tomatoes. It was good and filling. glass of red wine
Another rest day, but my stomach is better. Now, for my allergic eyes to get better. Will exercise no matter what tomorrow.

Saving for the next one...
Owlie, I posted a link to the spicy tuna cake recipe in post #3390 (5 posts up). It is quite good and also inexpensive. Many of NomNom's recipes do take a fair amount of effort, but they are all great. This one is more simple than many.
I get my fermented veggies from Fermenti Artisan. Sadly they have no website and they do not have an internet side to their business. They've a wide range of fermented veggies, my favorite is the Curtido, which is a variety of veggies with a bit of a spicy kick to it. I think this is a kraut recipe from El Salvador, but it is awesome. They also have a non-spicy version that they call "Garden Kraut". They also offer Kimchee, pickled beets, etc., etc., etc. As their name implies, fermented veggies is all they do! They also are the only place where I will actually buy my lunch if I've forgotten mine, they have great salads with well-sourced ingredients, including the protein.
