Breakfast:  Green Monster (kale, spinach, alfalfa sprouts, almond milk, flax seeds, 1/2 banana, blackberry applesauce, protein powder)  YUMMY!!

• Lunch:  Amy’s Lasagna
• Snacks: mini sweet peppers, applesauce, and goat milk (didn’t eat, see below)
• Other snacks (no picture): lots of gum, 3 lifesavers, 1 packet Elements Oatmeal, olives and pretzel slims (what can I say? i’m a snacker!)

I made an attempt at eating goat milk yogurt, but I didn’t like it so I tossed it.

Dinner: Salad with lettuce, tomatoes, kidney beans, alfalfa sprouts, black olives, artichoke hearts with thousand island dressing.

I also cooked up this Helen’s GardenSteak and crumbled it over the salad, which was awesome!! It tasted really good, but it got a little chewy after it sat out for a while. Since it was so good when I first cooked it, my solution for this will be to eat it up quicker next time.

Overall, it was an OK day!

Breakfast: Green Monster

I also tried a BioK+ probiotic drink. I was really hoping these would be my answer to the probiotic situation I’ve been in. I really wanted a nondairy food source of probiotics, but the GoodBelly probiotics did not work out and they taste awful. Unfortunately with the BioK+ I ran into the same problems, although not as bad.

Lunch: Panera Half Cobb (with no cheese, sub turkey instead of chicken), Half Black Bean Soup, Whole Grain Baguette

Dinner: roasted veggies (eggplant, zucchini, red peppers) with balsamic glaze, and a small turkey sandwich

Veggies before the oven…..
