Meal Suggestions?

I thought we could start a running post for any meal suggestions. Anything you can think of from the whole meal to an ingredient we might not have thought of.

Hemp Seeds. They are raw and they are supposed to have the best source of protein. I have read that we can mix them into our smoothies, toss in our salads.. whatever. I have seen them at the health food store.

Mustard greens for mock wraps. My sister gave me this suggestion. She said to clean the bunch when you bring it home. Keep the stems for your green smoothies. Keep them in a ziploc bag for easy use. Fill them with avacados, tomatoes, sea salt and chili powder. (or whatever you want) It makes you feel like you are eating something more substantial.

Raw Almond butter. It makes a great quick snack. Slice up an apple and dip it in there. Quick energy. It is even kid approved. (warning- last time I bought raw almond butter it was $14, but did last about 5 months)



Only One More Day Until We are Starting!!

I can’t decide if I should chow down on everything I will not be able to eat , or if I should try to slowly work myself onto the healthier side on things. Of course I did realize I have my monthly Mom’s Night Out on Thursday. We are going to an awesome restaurant too. Yikes! What shall I do?

I am so glad you two are doing this with me. Hopefully this blog will help us track everything.

Everyone who is doing this will be made an editor on this blog. Feel free to start new posts, add catagories, whatever…. We can add comments to posts as well. So whatever works.

Do you think we will be inspired to keep this going?
