Day 4 & 5...Kill all things!!

According to the Whole30, by day 4 and 5, I should want to murder anyone who even looks at me funny.  Luckily, I am very happy and do not want to "kill all things" or "eat all things".  Maybe it's the new job keeping me busy, but this is working out so far.  And last night, I slept the best I have slept in a long time.

Day 4 

Breakfast - 2 fried eggs with veggies.  I put the veggies together the night before, so it would be much easier in the morning.  Honestly, I would love to have just 2 plain fried eggs, but each meal on Whole30 should include protein, veggies, and some healthy fat.  I think it does keep me a little fuller, a little longer.  And veggies are so good for me, so why fight it.

Lunch -  Lettuce wraps with turkey, guacamole, and orange bell peppers.  It's a little messy, but I love it.  Also, I buy the single serve guacs, so it stays fresher longer.  I buy Waterhill turkey, without any of the bad stuff!! 

Dinner - Lemon & caper chicken thighs, with sauteed spinach and

sweet potatoes.  This is one of my favorite meals.  I had chicken thighs for the firsts time last year, and wow, they're so good.  I add some chicken broth and lemon juice to make a nice sauce for the chicken.  It's delicious.

Day 5.

Breakfast - Frittata, made with chicken sausage, spinach, red peppers, and scallions.  I was a little nervous it would be boring without cheese (because, isn't everything), but it was actually quite good.  The apples in the sausage gave it a nice sweetness.

Lunch - Leftover sausage soup and grapes.  Gotta love leftovers.

Dinner.  Zoodles (Zucchini noodles made with a spiralizer) with lemon chicken.  I added some of that lemon sauce and it was delicious.  I also make extra zoodles and freeze them for another time.

Now it's time for the weekend.  Need to keep myself busy, because this is when I usually eat the most.

Thanks for listening,
