WOD = "Workout OF (the) Day"
by LN's WOD

previous entry: JULY UPDATE: (kinda long)

menu (for autumn)

07/07/2011

Breakfast:
Smoothie (made in my blendtec!)
greek yoguart
juice (cranberry or simply orange)
banana (usually)
frozen berries

Lunch:
usually salads. Cobb salad, turkey/bacon/ranch salad, raspberry-chueve (goat cheese that apparently i can't spell) salad, etcetc. When I'm at home I HATE making salads, so i normally eat leftovers or something.

Sometimes the kitchen will have chicken/meat served with veggies that I'll opt for.

Dinner:
MEAT! Normally I'll make a big meal thingy on sunday that will last me the week. This week I didn't and it's kinda screwing me. (the only downside to paleo is trying to figure out what to make "quick")

Here are some things I've made:
cheese wrapped with chicken wrapped with bacon. (tooth-pick and bake for 35 min)
eggs and onions (this is my staple...whenever i'm out of ideas or need something quick, eggs are my "goto meal")
spinach, chicken, tomato, goat-cheese crumbles, sunflower seeds with mint sauce. (this was totally an accident but ended up being SOOOOOO GOOOOOOOD.
brats with salsa/cheese/whatever (another "quick meal")
chicken and peaches (simple bake)
paleo-shepard's pie (beef, Mediterranean veggies (zucchini and stuff), mashed cauliflower, cheese.
lots and lots of stir fry. (just veggies + meat + eggs)

DESSERTS!
paleo keylime pie. (this didn't turn out very well, sadly.... mostly because I suck at baking new things, let alone using almond/coconut flour that isn't the same consistency as normal flour.
honey shortbreadzomg......effin' delicious!!!! (I used normal flour over the weekend.... I've never had anything that's tasted so good before!
fudge babies I've made something similar to these....but not exactly. I was told that these are better
chocolate-cheesecake "brownies"--- meh.... it was greek yoguart + chocolate + honey.... you can image how it tasted (and it wasn't good).

That's not bad at all. Do you find that it is kind of expensive with all the meat? I sometimes try to eat this way but when I have to cook for the family it gets tough.

It's weird that you mentioned price.... I actually save a lot more money this way because I stock up on produce/food that goes bad (and i only buy that stuff) and only shop once a week.

the most expensive thing i buy is mixed-nuts. (7$ a box/tube/carton/whatever the packaging).

my lunch is done by the company (that's $4.50 no matter what i get).

Typically i spend about 30-50$ a week on groceries (depending on all the other non-food stuff i need to buy).

I feel like since bry started eating at home our bill shot up. Maybe because I try to only buy antibiotic free meat? But before we only ate meat a few times a week. Obviously he likes to have meat at every meal.

I don't know if this would apply to you, but I used to spend a lot more money on meat back when I didn't realize that one (antibiotic free, boneless skinless) chicken breast was actually tow servings of meat! So we still eat meat at home pretty much every day, but now I split the breast into 4 ounce portions, which I combine with brown rice and some steamed vegetable and that's what my dinner consists of most nights.

And by TOW servings of meat, I mean TWO.

Yeah, I usually only cook two chicken breasts for all of us and add grilled veggies or spinach and typically a starch, because honestly, I don't think my family could live without it. lol

I like all the things you eat, but I would die without carbs. Like, seriously, my life would be miserable without them. It's sad that a type of food that's not even good for me holds that much power over my life.

But you are looking amazing, dude!
