The awesome recipes just keep on coming! Taco salad made with ground turkey was pretty much the most awesome thing since the chicken lettuce wraps.
Here's another trick to success: don't forget your lunch when you leave for work! I was driving away, late of course (obviously being on time wasn't one of my resolutions this year), and remembered that my little lunch bag was still in the fridge just as I was getting on the highway. There goes my awesome taco salad lunch and mid-morning snack. Thankfully my student husband had to stop home before class. He pretty much saved my life today.
Day 8 Menu
Wakeup: wonderful hot lemon water
Breakfast: Kefir smoothie, green tea
Mid-morning snack (that I ended up eating at 1:50 p.m.): yogurt with fresh blueberries, sweetened with agave nectar
Lunch: TACO SALAD! Ground turkey with taco seasoning over a salad of lettuce, red onions, green peppers, tomatoes, and just a little reduced fat cheddar cheese. Then some delicious green tea. ;)
Snack: hardboiled egg and a baby carrot baggie
Dinner: chicken stir fry (not a recipe). Just cook up chicken breast strips in a wok with garlic, ginger, a mix of olive oil and sesame oil, and light soy sauce. Then add whatever Asian-style veggies you like - green beans, cole slaw mix (cabbage), broccoli, cauliflower, shredded carrots. Then throw on a dash of sesame seeds after serving. Delish!
Dessert: green teeeezy!
Cravings haven't been too bad lately. Beer and wine will always be a craving that just won't go away. I haven't had any, though, because it always comes down to the fact that it's not worth it and I would just be mad at myself if I had any. My dictator husband says that the same goes for the Reese Cups in my freezer...I guess :-/
Peace out, Day 8!!!!
