Broccoli Beef (n Kale)

Who could ask for anything more?

Another breakfast salad

Herb salad mix, olive oil and balsamic, hard boiled eggs, olives, avocado, chopped liver.

GOOD MORNING DAY 12!

Trompe l'oeil

No, it's not white rice. In fact, it's grated, steamed cauliflower. It turns out, it's incredibly rice-like in flavor and sauce-absorbing qualities. Happy Me!

Physical activity update: Went swimming for the first time in months yesterday and loved it.

Back pain update: Very low/gone today!

Salad encore

In this salad: herb mix, mustard vinaigrette, olives, avocado, pork meatballs, fried egg.

Back pain update: Comes and goes

Physical activity: Some light gymming on Friday. Feeling weak. Maybe the diet, maybe a December with little strength training.

DAY TEN HAS BEGUN!

Salad for breakfast!

If breakfast for dinner is so cool (or maybe it's totally played out, since even Martha is now on board), why not lunch for breakfast?

The addition of an egg allowed this salad to retain its breakfast-ian credentials.

In this salad: Herb salad mix with olive oil and balsamic vinegar, sliced avocado, roasted hazelnuts, kalamata olives, fried egg. Oh, and Bresaola. My go-to whole30-compliant, lazy, add-this-to-anything cured meat.

Yesterday's breakfast

And the day before, and the day before, and the day before. That is, a frittata with salsa. This day, I added a sliced avocado, because I happened to pick up a very ripe one the previous evening. Joy of joys!

Btw, my new favorite snack is a slice of Bresaola wrapped around a slice of avocado with a squirt of lemon juice and some black pepper.

Re-hash (sans hash)

Curry chicken, broccoli, kale, kimchee.

Physical activity report: Gym time, including stretching!

Back pain update: Not too shabby.

DAY FIVE COMPLETED.
