Year 2/Day 228

Year 2 - Day 228
(Turkey Green Bean Stir Fry)

Whew.  Today was a long day in the kitchen.  I decided last week that I would try and prep some of our dinners on Sunday as well so I had less to do during the week.  Boy…I din’t realize how much extra work that would be!!

Good thing is, everything turned out looking delicious!

I finally got my wheat berries!
I present to you, wheat berry salad (wheat berries, apple, walnuts, and cranberries in a raspberry vinaigrette topped with feta cheese)

Mmmmmmm…….

Year 2/Day 200

Year 2 - Day 200
Veggie taco salad, homemade peanut butter, and omelet muffins

Another day of meal prep done.  And with great success I’d say.  There are some delicious meals ahead this week, but I’m most proud of my homemade peanut butter.  It was surprisingly easy and super delicious!

Sidenote: who knew wheat berries would be so hard to find!! :/ I’ve been to THREE stores today…and two of them were “healthy” stores.  Well, at least amazon rocks. Guess I’ll just wait until Tuesday.

 

Year 2/Day 197

Year 2 - Day 197

This is what happens when you have to go out of town, but don’t want to break your healthy eating routine.  This actually made me very happy.

Also, this should be the last weekend we have to travel to Charleston for “business”.  We’re taking the last of Benny’s stuff home Saturday and will not have to go back into that apartment.  Yay!  Next time we go to Charleston it will be for fun and on our own schedule.

Year 2 - Day 196

Lunch is served!
Avocado & Greek Yogurt Tuna Salad wrap w/ lettuce and feta cheese, side of grapes

I was amazed with how yummy this turned out.  Sure, it doesn’t taste like mayonnaise…but it’s still good!

I also decided to start a plank challenge today.  Every day starting today, I’m going to work on the plank in hopes of improving and getting stronger over time.  It starts by holding the plank position for 10 seconds and increases little by little.  Here I go building muscles and getting lean!

Year 2/Day 188

Year 2 - Day 188

Well, one thing I didn’t think about was the amount of dishes that weekly prepping creates…I’m talking about ALL the dishes are dirty!  Luckily I don’t mind washing dishes (normally).  Also, I’m feeling very grateful for this wonderfully open kitchen we have.  It makes everything much easier.

Guess I better buy some more soap!
