I feel really energized today! Not overly (like caffeine), but just great. No headaches or groggy-ness and I think i am starting to see a difference in my body! I think that if i'm feeling great and doing the right things, then something's going to be changing, right?? :)
Great day today:
breakfast: 1/2 cup oatmeal, dried apricots and 1/4 cup walnuts
lunch: miso soup, raw veggies and some dried "Sea's Gift" seaweed snack. its the BEST!
(i had a half of granola bar in the afternoon, which i don't feel great about. because it was processed and had some sugar. didn't do much for me.)
dinner: Tuna Salad Sandwich (kinda!) pg 246
- break an 8-ounce package of tempeh in half and put on a steamer basket for 20 minutes.
- boil a small saucepan of water. add a minced red onion for 15 seconds and then place in 1/4 cup umeboshi vinegar to marinate for 20 minutes. keep the boiling water out.
- blanch 1/2 chopped carrot, 1/2 cup corn kernels, 1/2 cup thawed peas each for 10 seconds in the boiling water and then put in a mixing bowl to cool.
- strain the onions and rinse them with cold water. add them to the veggie bowl.
- cut the tempeh into small cubes. add them to the veggie bowl.
- finally, add 1/4 cup dill pickles, 1 tbsp vegen-aise, 1/2 tbsp dijon mustard, 1 tbsp lemon juice, 2 tbsp fresh dill and 1 tbsp of fresh capers on top!
My pictures ends up looking like a mess, but i was very proud of it! She said you can make it a sandwich, but I kept mine open-faced to cut down on the bread. I put a date on the side for a little fruit :) in my boyfriend's an my opinion...it tastes better than the real thing!
