Today the man wanted something for lunch but he wasn't sure what. I told him to make a sandwich using the romaine lettuce as bread. You know what, he LIKED it. He really LIKED it. When I said "what's for dinner" he said, I'll just take another one of those sandwiches. Really? Score!
Though, tonight will be a combo of steak, chicken and ribs because of the freezer door being left open. Chicken will probably be used for tomorrow's sandwiches.
I know I need to eat more. I had Grapefruit with a sprinkle of sugar this morning. well, around noon. I'm getting hungry and this is my snacking hour. There's some defrosted bacon, I could always make me some bacon and eggs. I drank some water instead of grabbing a Pepsi. So that's good. :)
I keep editing. I drank more water, ate some summer sausage and scrambled two eggs... I ate about 1.5 and the hurricane ate the rest. A friend gave me a site with a TON of paleo recipes. Can't wait to try some!!
Ok, so totals for the day:
One Grapefruit. A handful of grapes. A slice of a clementine. LOTS of water (about 3 tall glasses, so roughly 50oz of water). Two eggs. Three slices of summer sausage. About 4-6 oz of sirloin steak, grilled and grilled broccoli and cauliflower, about 2 servings worth. I'm ready to pull out the juicer to show the kids and make them some apple juice. :) Definitely not enough to sustain a bird, however, I do feel full. But, I'll have to work on eating a bit more throughout the day. Tomorrow... who knows! And I got the pineapple corer thingamabob from a friend (um, thingamabob did not come up as misspelled! LOL!!) so I won't fear the pineapple! WOOT!
WHOO HOOO!!!! Can't wait to see what you come up with! I want to see pics of this lettuce sammy.
ReplyDeleteHEHE My word verification is mating
haha, that's awesome! Tomorrow, if Mister eats another sandwich (he will, I had to cook chicken breast tonight, too) I'll be sure to take a picture. He did put a small amount of ketchup (not paleo) but I allowed it since he hasn't even had any pop... I think :)
ReplyDeletewhen hubby leaves, one of these days, i'm gonna come over for a breakfast juice made with that cool juicer! and i want something made with the pulp too! ha ha!
ReplyDeleteI'm looking up recipes now! I want to be able to make a breakfast "bread" or muffin with the pulp without the use of wheat. I'm going to have to learn the almond flour or coconut flour ratio compared to using wheat flour...
