Whole30 – Day 23

Whole30Badges23

Tonight’s dinner could have been a disaster, but by deciding I wasn’t going to let it be, it wasn’t.

Breakfast

My favorite green smoothie, minus the banana.

Lunch

Snack

1 ounce sea salt almonds.

Dinner

Went out for BBQ, and the only thing on the menu that was Whole30 compliant is the coriander pork shoulder. So, half a pound of pork it was. And it was good.

1 cup cherries, 1/2 cup pineapple.

Whole30 – Day 21

Another successful, easy day.

Breakfast

My favorite green smoothie, minus the banana.

Lunch

20130821-182629.jpg

4 ounces leftover roast pork from Whole Foods with 1/2 cup eggplant (1.5 c. raw) sauteed in a Tablespoon or two coconut oil – finished off with a squeeze fresh lemon juice and a good helping of salt. Good, but a little oil-logged and not quite as crispy as I had envisioned. More lemon would have helped.

Dinner

20130821-182657.jpg

Grass fed top round (which is a bit tough when eaten like a steak), half a container of heirloom tomatoes sprinkled with salt & Japanese 7-spice, and a sautéed orange bell pepper. Satisfying, albeit a touch chewy. But those tomatoes … those tomatoes were the proverbial bomb.

Little round Asian eggplant. One of my local, seasonal veggie impulse buys from this weekend’s ridiculously heavy Whole Foods trip.

Photo taken old school, using a prime 50mm lens + 2 magnifying filters from the old SLR kit inherited from my Dad. I think the result turned out well, despite my eyes being all out of whack and not wanting to focus clearly through the lens today.
