Day 1 of this Whole30 business was pretty easy. I’ve been prepping myself for this crazypants excursion for a solid month now (getting mentally ready by saying ‘goodbye for now’ to alcohol, non-dairy ice cream and rooster sauce) so today wasn’t too rough.
Breakfast
My DH’s green smoothie. Luckily, the brand of orange juice we use is 100% juice (not from concentrate with no additives) and the coconut water we use is 100% coconut (no additives).
Lunch
I made a salad of 1.5 cups shredded carrot, 1 sliced scallion, 1 sliced nectarine, 6 cherry tomatoes, 1 Tbsp. diced mint, 1 Tbsp. diced cilantro, 1 small breast leftover Baked Mustard Lime Chicken + a quick dressing made from some of the chicken sauce and 1 Tbsp. grapeseed oil.
Snack
Had a 100 calorie pack of plain almonds by Emerald.
Dinner
Made a simple sautee of sea beans in coconut oil, garlic & shallots and baked some boneless skinless chicken thighs with more coconut oil, garlic and shallots. A simple meal, but a good one.
