It's been a few days since posting last. Over the weekend, we went to the California State Fair and that just spelled trouble!!! Although I didn't do as badly as I could have (let me tell you-I love FRIED FOOD), I do think if I would have planned better I could have stayed on track. But, I never said I would be perfect and this is my 1st week of changing our whole eating style-so I'm giving myself a break. Saturday morning, I made egg white burrito with Spinach, mushrooms, little salsa and low-fat mozzarella cheese. I have to say that I was afraid since I've never tried egg white eggs before. They were DELICIOUS!!! And they fluff up a lot during the cooking process and it actually looks like more food for the one serving I made :)
All day at the fair, I ate a Works baked potato (bacon, butter and sour cream), egg roll on a stick, frozen yogurt (shared with family), and for dinner we ended up going to Red Lobster where I had a cup of clam chowder, cheese bisquits and jumbo coconut prawns. So NOT Clean eating...but oh so yummy!! Sunday, I got back on track :)
I did grocery shopping at Trader Joe's. I've been wanting to make Baked Ziti (Eat-Clean Diet Recharged book-Family and Kids) and it turned out amazing!!! My girls ate it up! And so many leftovers...it's so good it's hard not to have more than one serving :)
I am finding that cooking is actually fun and rewarding. And, I don't feel deprived-like i'm missing out on something better. This is as good as it gets! Whole nutritious good for you food...no junk and added salt or preservatives. Fresh ingredients, simple and easy recipes. I LOVE IT! :) I feel so much better already and I know with continued success eating this way, I will just keep feeling better and better.
Angel :)
