This morning I had some things to do before work so I woke up at 5, headed to the gym for 30 minutes on the elliptical, and came home to git ‘er done. I had a delicious breakfast cookie waiting for me when I got home; I made a similar mixture last week and it was so good that I had to try it again!
- 1/3 cup oats
- 1/2 mashed banana
- 1/2 scoop vanilla protein powder
- splash skim milk
- 1 tbsp chocolate PB2
- 1 tsp chia seeds
- toppings: goji berries, Greek yogurt, pumpkin, dried fig, agave
I brought an orange and apple to work… I’m always paranoid about my apples being too noisy, so today I sliced it beforehand. Did the trick!
I also had a slice of Gluten Free Bran bread… I love more each time I have some! This recipe is a keeper.
My lunch salad did a good job of cleaning out the fridge…
In the mix:
- mixed greens
- steamed broccoli
- celery
- grape tomatoes
- goji berries
- dried cranberries
- TJ’s Vegetable Marsala burger (I missed these!)
- Goddess dressing (mixed in at work)
Danielle had bought a package of Lemon Poppyseed Heart Thrive bars and wasn’t a fan, so she gave me the remaining bar. I love these! They were great snacks when I was in Russia, and just as good today.
Dinner required little planning, but worked out perfectly.
I made SELF’s Creamy Lemon Shrimp, halving the recipe and making a few substitutions:
- Greek yogurt in place of plain yogurt/ sour cream
- celery in place of chives
- agave in place of sugar
- spinach in place of arugula
It may not look so pretty, but I really enjoyed this! It was healthy, voluminous, and filled me right up.
I packed half for lunch tomorrow; I love when I don’t have to think about what to prepare for the next day.
Dessert was Banana Soft Serve with a melted square of Bakers chocolate.
A superoon may have also sneaked its way in 
Off to watch Gossip Girl! It’s a lovely, lazy night. Have a great one.
