3: carrots and hummus
4: chicken cheesesteak saute, roasted zucchini

exercise: oldest has a stomach bug, so hopefully DH will be able to get home early enough for me to hit the gym or go for a run during this fabulous little cool(ish) front we're having.
mmmm, cocoa-roasted nuts are GOOD. Probably too good
I discovered them pre-made (Emerald brand, sweetened with Splenda), and after I devoured pretty much the entire canister (probably 16 servings or so!) I discovered corn starch was an ingredient. Not sure how much, but still I figured I could easily make the same without cornstarch.
I have tried it the easy way (just spray raw nuts with a coating of canola oil and the dust with a cocoa powder/sweetener of choice) and the more difficult, messy way (coat the nuts in an egg white wash first) - although I have never gotten the results just right (a lot of coating doesn't stick), they are still really good!! I toast them in my toaster oven at 350°F for around 7 or 8 minutes. Some will start to crack when they are ready.
B - Coffee with us coconut milk. "Cake batter" smoothie
L - Homemade chili with TVP and multicolored peppers. White tea.
S - Cucumber-Greek yogurt salad. Roasted seasoned seaweed (YUM! The only ingredients are seaweed, oil and salt - 1.6 g fat - 30 cal and 30% USRDA for Vitamin A and 20% for Vitamin C )
D - Grilled shrimp on Romaine lettuce salad with flaxseed oil/lemon juice vinaigrette. Broccoli eggwhite "souffle" (more like a quiche/custard).
dessert - ?
[I added it up: 5-6 cups veggies, depending on how I count the lettuce. 124g protein - wow!]
