whole30 challenge

It’s been a week since I completed my first Whole30 challenge. Honestly not much has changed since. I did add full cream to my coffee and we had a date night splurge… but we are continuing eating paleo/primal. Looking to balance life with 80-90% compliance, with a little room for date night and special treats….

Grain-free Granola

In L.O.V.E. with this granola. Simply in love. My heart broke when my daughter caught me eating this for breakfast and proceeded to scarf down half of it before I could tear the bowl away from her.

Choose a simple mesquite grilled salmon, side salad (lettuce, carrots, tomatoes, no dressing), and steamed broccoli. A far cry from our usual date night – stuffing ourselves so full that we feel awful. Love how I have learned what it means…

whole30 menu – day 26

This breakfast is so good! It makes a ton – enough for our family to eat it three mornings in a row. And it tastes like a supreme pizza… well as much as an egg casserole can. I take what I can get now. But I will definitely be making this once a week. Everyone…

whole30 menu – day 25

So I totally made a new breakfast dish – but forgot to take a picture. Thankfully it made a TON of food so I’ll be eating leftovers for breakfast and will post the the photo/recipe tomorrow! Was super excited about dinner tonight but I totally messed it up. Made it WAY WAY WAY too spicy….
