Kind of a gray day today and a little chilly. We headed out to Panera so I could get my Sunday bagel fix!
Sorry for the flash. The lighting at Panera Bread is terrible!
John had one of the new strawberry scones. It was pretty good, may have to try it myself instead of a bagel sometime (gasp!).
I will tell you that yesterday was a horrible eating day for me. I had 1 fruit and no veggies all day. So, that was one day of my veggie challenge that doesn’t pass LOL! I really need to give myself a little tough love on weekends. Or a lot of tough love. Maybe that will be my challenge for this week.
So today, bring on the protein and the produce.
Lunch was pretty orange!
I mixed some cottage cheese with strawberry protein powder and filled the cantaloupe. This was good, but cold. I had a serious chill after lunch. Sat there in a blanket while I worked with some tea!
The only hot thing I had today besides tea was this latte:
Dinner was more cold stuff. I am so happy to have chicken back! We stopped at the smokehouse yesterday and got a plethora of meat for the freezer.
This salad had 4 cups of spring mix! Now that is a lot of veggies
With strawberries. Look at this berry – I wonder if it was grown near 3-mile island?
Tonight’s snack? I mixed up 1/2 cup of water with a 1/2 scoop of protein powder, 1 tsp of cocoa powder (for richness) and some konjac powder. Let it sit for a while and I got a pudding out of it.
Check it out! Topped with a little marshmallow fluff – oh yes. This stuff is crazy! I might try some of those noodles, but I am a little scared.
Work is done and it is laundry time!
Produce challenge:
F: 1/2 cantaloupe, strawberries
