I’m had a strong protein laden breakfast and my lunch will be a cup of my high protein pasta salad, so for dinner tonight I will feast on cubed watermelon, cantaloupe and honey dew melon balls. Spring water to drink.

I made an awesome soup tonight. Saute'ed a bunch of fresh veggies: onions, cauliflower, carrots,and corn. I had some pumpkin in the freezer. I blended that with some no-lactose milk and poured it in the soup pan, shook in a bunch of spices and Voila! it was delicious, The veggies were a little crunchy, which I love.


I love throwing together soup with whatever I dig out of the fridge or freezer,
Turned out to be a lot of soup, so tomorrow I'm going to toss in some rotisserie chicken I have in the fridge. If there is some left the next day, I think I'll add some shrimp. Oh and maybe serve it over some angel hair pasta, or rice.
Good day y'all!
Smooches,

Dinner
 

Stuffed chicken breast with broccoli and cheese with long grain and wild rice. Ice tea.
To me it is not a meal without meat or fish or other seafood. Just my opinion ty

I'm with you there. I tried the vegetarian thing, but after about a day and a half without some legit protein I start feeling light headed and hungry all the time, that no amount of food except some protein will neutralize.

I had a burrito.

Smokey Navy Bean soup with hatch green chilies and jalapeños and wedges of organic lime. I garnished my homemade soup with sliced organic avocado and crumbled peppered bacon.

✨✨✨☺️✨✨✨


A chilled glass of spring water, as well.

After a very intense couple of weeks moving my father into assisted living, my mom and I are craving comfort food. Tonight I will roast a turkey breast and make mashed potatoes, gravy, and roasted carrots.

I'm aware of the other forms of protein, although looking back at my original post I do sound flippant about it. I eat many other proteins. Part of the problem with them as one's only protein source, in my eyes, is that you have to eat them in specific combinations in order to come up with complete proteins. Being a vegetarian is work. But that is neither here nor there in my case, because if it's not some kind of animal product, it will not satisfy my hunger after a day or two.

I also tend to stick to lighter things when the weather is hot. I'm especially fond of Jell-O salads (not vegan BTW; gelatin is an animal product). But I have no problem with some chicken or fish, either.

Tonight I had:
- grilled trout (a total coincidence!)
- broccoli and rice casserole
- steamed green beans
- honey carrots

Dinner
 

Cod filet, long grain and wild rice , aspargus. Ice tea.

Today I had a bunch of errands to run in town, so I picked up a Rueben sandwich and a greek gyro from Arby's. I won't have to cook for a couple of days. I ate half of the rueben, then I was so tired I couldnt eat anymore. I'll finish tomorrow. I'm about to fall out. Hopefully I will be smart enough to lie down and go to sleep soon.
Smooches,

I have never considered that combination. It sounds good! Cole slaw is a great condiment and side dish.

I cooked ahead for a few days on Sunday and used a bunch of stuff from our garden. We have eggplant parm, stuffed zucchini boats, and chicken parm (not from the garden).

It's all you can eat pancake time at IHOP
 

Going out to dinner with my son and granddaughter.
AYCE pancakes are $5 at IHOP right now. I cannot make good pancakes myself, but I like them, so voila! IHOP to the rescue.
Pancakes for dinner.
