Snowy day.

I am an American expat who loves to explore the world through the plate and is always curious to learn more.
Whole30 #3 – Day 8
Today’s food was light, bright, and flavorful.
Breakfast
My favorite – DH’s green smoothie + hemp protein powder and coffee with homemade almond milk.
Lunch
Last night’s dinner leftovers – yum!
Dinner
Dinner was fantastic. Leftover pulled pork with a salad of Apple/mint/cilantro/radish and lime. Unfortunately, I did not take note of the quantities of ingredients I used so I won’t be able to share the recipe.
Snack
Hazelnuts.

Whole30 #3 – Day 5
Oh hi there, nicotine fit, I’d almost forgotten about you. It is *now* that I remember Whole30 makes me want a damn cigarette. I don’t know what it is – it’s not like I eat that far off of W30 the rest of the year – but something about it just kicks my infrequent cigarette wanting into overdrive. Like, as I’m sitting here my lungs are tight and I can barely get a full breath (which is exactly what a nicotine fit felt like). For perspective, I quit 6 years ago and haven’t had even a drag since – and I know I don’t actually *want* one; my lungs just think they might. And they want to tell me about it. What’s next? Reese’s Nutrageous cravings? Those used to go hand-in-hand with wanting a smoke.
Breakfast
Breakfast was fantastic. My DH’s green smoothie + hemp protein powder and coffee with homemade almond milk. You’d think that after having this smoothie pretty much every week day for the last two years, that I’d be tired of it. Not so. My body craves this breakfast when I haven’t had it in awhile – just like it used to crave bacon & eggs & hashed browns with toast.
And my coffee … after a weekend full of less-than-stellar cups, I’m actually excited to be back with my old standard cup.
Lunch
Glaaaaaaaamorus! Let me tell you, I know how to pour the glamour on. Leftover roasted meat from last night’s dinner with the last of my guacamole and some roasted garlic Choula.
Dinner
Much better. Instant Pot pulled pork (recipe coming soon) with spiced roasted parsnips.
