Quick Note: Sorry about the blog down time yesterday, my server was down, everything should be good to go now! Thank you!
Hi Friends! So it’s been a little while since I’ve done the meal recap thing so I thought you guys would like to see what I’ve been eating! Keep in mind this isn’t all inclusive AT ALL, but it is the majority of my meals. This week I’m planning on joining my students in recording 7 days of intake so I’ll be trying to take a picture of EVERYTHING. We will see how well that goes! Until then… welcome to the Hungry Hobby Breakfast Quesadilla train…
MONDAY
B: 2 medium eggs, 1 La Tortilla Factory tortilla, sprinkle of Colby cheese (2T?)
L: Leftover salmon salad with grilled cauliflower from TJ’s
D: Paleo Pad Thai (recipe from the sprouts bulletin)
TUESDAY
B: 2 medium eggs, 1 La Tortilla Factory tortilla, sprinkle of colby cheese (2T?)
S: Oranges motivate me to take Nala on a walk
L: Paleo Pad Thai (recipe from the sprouts bulletin)
Literally no idea what I had for dinner, can’t find a picture sooooo it will be a mystery!
WEDNESDAY
B: Nut Butter Quesadilla- 2T Almond Butter, 1/2 Banana, 1 LTF Tortilla
L: Cauliflower Fried Rice (Recipe altered from here)- we will call this the time I almost ate an entire bag of TJ’s Fried Rice in one sitting.
D: Tuna Melt 1/3 to 1/2 tuna salad (mix 1 can of tuna with 1/2 avocado and mustard), 1 ounce cheese, 2 pieces of Alvarado Street Bakery Organic Essential Flax Seed Bread + the rest of the fried rice (unpictured)
THURSDAY
B: 2 medium eggs, 1 La Tortilla Factory tortilla, sprinkle of colby cheese (2T?)
L: Quinoa Bars (I alter them slightly every time but these were closest to my banana walnut version without the walnuts)
D: Saluted Chicken Sausage and Steamed Broccoli
FRIDAY
B: 2 medium eggs, 1 La Tortilla Factory tortilla, sprinkle of colby cheese (2T?)
D: Saluted Chicken Sausage and Steamed Broccoli
D/S: Quest Bar (recylced photo)
FROYO FRIDAY!
What went unrecorded? I had baked apples for dessert almost every night:
Spoonfuls of almond butter/peanut butter or banana smeared with almond butter/nut butter, pieces of cheese, bananas, and I think I had 3 Quest Bars throughout the week! So that’s it for last week! As you can see I didn’t change much about what I typically eat, I don’t really carb load or coach my Hungry Hobby RD athletes to do a heavy carb load (except in very special circumstances). I do recommend making sure you have a moderate source of mostly lower fiber healthy carbs at most of your meals a in the days before your event (depending on the event it could be 1-3) So starting Friday night (race was on Sunday–> see my first half marathon recap here) I just made sure to not forget about carbs, which was easily accomplished with the gluten free corn dog bites I made on Saturday! I skipped the high fiber tortillas and opted for a bread (still whole grain, just no added fiber), bananas, cereal, yogurt, and corn dogs. #Balance

All of these meals look so delicious and nutritious. I love the salmon and salad combo. I had no idea that they sold cauliflower rice at Trader Joes! I have to try it 🙂
