This weekend business isn’t as all-fired scary and frustrating as I was making it out to be in my head. Whole30 takes a little more thought than just ordering what looks good, but it is certainly doable – especially if you stick to an “American” restaurant. I really wanted a Bloody Mary or other cocktail with lunch, but you know what? It’s only a month of my life – and we can always go back.
Breakfast
You guessed it … DH’s green smoothie, minus the banana.
Lunch
Stopped at a bar/pub specializing in local brews and quality food and had a grass fed burger (no bun, no cheese, no chipotle mayo) for lunch with a side field greens salad (subbed for the fries). Delicious and easy.
Snack
Energy flagging, we hit up Starbucks for a caffeine jolt and a seat. I had black iced coffee & then stopped at a bodega for some coconut water to add to it to cut the oppressiveness. Yum.
Later in the afternoon, I had to pee with no public bathrooms in sight – hit up another coffee shop for some unsweetened black tea.
Dinner
Stopped at my favorite market for house made take-and-eat dishes – Westside Market. Grabbed a grilled lemon chicken breast, some steamed asparagus, and roast mushrooms to eat at home. Easy and delicious.
