- chicken tenders with honey mustard sauce
- jalapeno poppers
- Oreo ice cream
- two bites of a (disappointing*) Russell Stover coconut cream egg
*disappointing because (I forgot from last year) they have reduced the amount of coconut and it is almost entirely just creamy white goo inside the dark chocolate. Not bad, but you can't even taste the coconut, and not worth splurging the calories on, IMHO. I bought a package of 6, and I'll be throwing the rest out.

I just had a very late lunch of a bunless cheeseburger and broccoli. Fresh broccoli is sooo expensive right now, but this frozen stuff is bad. I ate it. Back to fresh produce though.
What about those steamer bags? I've had those and the broccoli didn't taste too bad. Not crunchy, of course, but it didn't taste bad.

What about bringing them to work? Pawn them off on your coworkers!
Last night, I had a very early dinner followed by a snack because I was up longer than I thought I would. It was pizza and a salad and then my snack was a big honeycrisp apple.

I made an homemade vegetable ministrone soup out of vegetable stock, broccoli buds, shitake mushrooms, baby carrots, sweet onion, snow peas, beets, kidney beans and sweet mini peppers (red, yellow and orange, sliced up carefully) and sprinkled quinoa into the soup. There might be a couple of tiny roasted garlic cloves too. And tiny cherub tomatoes (just a few).
It's very delicious and it's what I am having for supper tonight.

I need your self control!!!
It's less about self control and more about listening to my body. I didn't NEED to eat. I had a calorie dense and very healthy breakfast and a very calorie laden, although less healthy, late lunch. I had already ingested enough calories for the day and then some and I really wasn't hungry. If I had eaten, it would have been out of habit or because I just WANTED to. My body didn't need it.
Some days are better than others but my goal is always to listen to my body. The one thing I did need, which was water as my lunch had a high salt content, I gave myself. I guess, technically, I had a couple cups of water for my dinner last night.
Hang in there! If you listen to your body, really listen, and try not to give into emotional or boredom eating, you'll feel better.

Tonight I made another small garden salad and I even made my own Tumeric dressing. My garden salad was made from 2 organic Romaine lettuce leaves (torn up gently). A small sprinkling of julienned carrots, Sesame Tahini salad toppers, a small teaspoon of French Feta crumbles, a tablespoon of cottage cheese (on the side of the salad), about four walnut halves, four big blackberries, and a few slices from a baby zucchini and about four sugar snap pea pods.
For the Tumeric dressing:
Blend up one cup of organic Greek yogurt (plain), 1 tbsp of coconut oil, 1 tsp of Tumeric powder, half a packet of stevia powder, a titch of cayenne pepper, ginger and cracked peppercorns. I read that peppercorns help your body to absorb the tumeric. If stevia is not your thing, you can use an tbsp of honey. Store in a covered glass jar and use within seven days (keep it refrigerated too).
I also had a small slice of the artisan garlic bread, topped off with a tbsp of freshly ground peanut butter.
Before 8 pm, I will have my dessert... 1 Crunchy Brownie Think Thin bar.
I've got another quart of water to drink to meet my daily water quota of 1 gallon.

Today has been cool and rainy so it was a perfect night for Shepherd's Pie. The best part is I doubled the recipe and made two so one is chilling in the freezer for a future "heat and eat" dinner. I have such a hard time forcing myself to meal prep in advance but the rewards are well worth it.

I stepped away, a bit ago, to make my supper salad and to make an extra salad for my apt mgr who installed two brand new windows and matching blinds, on the west side of my home.
I so appreciated the lovely workmanship because it was the last of the upgrades for my home, except new carpet in the east bedroom. My apt manager LOVED the salad I prepared for them! :)
I used organic Romaine, sugar snap peas, walnuts, julienned carrots, French Sheep crumbled feta cheese, an sliced minute egg, blackberries, cherub tomatoes, Sesame Tahini stick crackers, Tumeric dressing, and an tablespoon of roasted organic hummus to go with the organic tortilla chips.
Water to drink (I'll make my water quota by 8 pm).

I'm trying to branch out in the menu since I fell in love with one particular dish and was never getting anything else. SO....
I tried their Vietnamese noodle bowl.....I'm still tasting it today. It was SO good. There were all sorts of herbs playing around in it....lemon grass, Thai basil and cilantro to name a few. My honey said it was spicy but I didn't really find it so (my index is pretty high though)
I may just go get one for lunch. It was THAT good. This time with shrimp. It was honestly the only thing I would do differently...and usually I have a longggggg list!

we went to our favorite LOCAL Italian place. It's always very good....
but I was really longing for some pasta puttanesca which was a special last time we were there. I hate to get into a culinary rut but.....that was some amazing pasta. I should learn to make it....
Oh so my dinner felt lack luster by comparison. A medium rare steak which came out more like medium well and a plate of pasta with plain marinara. I I would have loved a baked tater but....they don't have them.
The pups will have my leftovers today. I wasn't all that excited about it. Sad to say.

Took a road trip to Alabama Saturday and came home with the best BBQ in the world. Seriously the pulled pork is so tender and juicy with a smokey flavor it does not need sauce of any kind. They give you sauce (vinegar based) but none needed. It's a tiny little shack, no indoor seating and two picnic tables in the shade. It's in Scottsboro and the only place I go for BBQ. Had it for dinner Sat., breakfast Sun. and dinner tonight with fresh corn on the cob. Key Lime Pie ice cream for dessert. Yum!
