I thought I'd start a weekly menu thread for this week.
Monday
B: Steel cut oats (cooked in the slow cooker) with walnuts, dried cranberries, and cinnamon, sugar free latte.
I'll edit later with my other meals.
I ate WAY TOO much today. I kept it healthy but still it was too much.
L: rustic garbanzo bean, spelt, and kale soup (recipe from Sonoma cookbook). This was my first experience with Kale and I have to say I think I like it. This soup was time consuming but it is very good and I would definately make it again. 1 apple.
S: this is where I got into trouble. a Luna bar and a dark chocolate bar-YIKES!
D: Garlic, Mustard Flank Steak, toasted bulgur and pine nut pilaf, and mustard greens salad. 1 glass of shiraz.
How am I doing with my plan to eat more veggies?
Breakfast: Hot cereal, o.j., coffee with FF half & half
Snack: 2% cheese stick
Lunch: Turkey and reduced fat Swiss with mayo on whole grain roll, clementine, carrot sticks
Snack: almonds
Dinner: Salmon, veggies, brown rice
Looks like our menu posters didn't last very long either.
Tues.
B: 6 oz. Fage 2% Greek yogurt sweetened with stevia and vanilla extract, 2/3 cup fresh strawberries, 1 tbsp sliced almonds; sugar free latte
L: 1.5 cups garbanzo bean, spelt, and kale soup, 1 navel orange
S: 1 Luna bar
D: chicken wrap with lettuce, cucumber, roasted red peppers, and goat cheese in a multigrain tortilla and a glass of white zinfindel.
Where is everyone????
This morning, for breakfast, I had shredded wheat & bran cereal with skim milk, juice, coffee and FF half & half. My snack was a piece of 2% cheese. Going out to lunch with the ladies from work...not sure yet what I'll order. Dinner - I'm thinking of making some ratatouille, with my whole grain bread and a glass of red Italian wine.
Okay, here I am again, looking for my long-lost Sonoma friends.
I had a terrible day yesterday. I ate everything that wasn't nailed down. I'm doing somewhat better today.
B: 2 eggs over easy, 1 slice whole wheat toast, sugar free latte
L: open face roast beef sandwhich, peach cobbler (took a collegue out to lunch)
S: pecans
D: left over garlic mustard flank steak, toasted bulgur and pine nut pilaf, 1 glass of shiraz. Maybe some strawberries for dessert.
