Day 13

Aaaahhhh…the weekend!  It’s beginning to look a lot like spring which has been a huge motivator.  I didn’t end up going out for a jog today but I did however do a bunch of cleaning in the house and in my car which I count as working out (I did break a sweat vacuuming).  

Breakfast- I had my usual "Membrane Fluidizer Cocktail"- 1 tablespoon flax seed oil, 1 tablespoon lecithin granules and 6-8 ounces orange/apple juice. 

I drink this a lot and thought I would post a pic of it.  Granules are mostly absorbed by the oil but it can look a little odd.  I really like the taste.     

Snack- 1 hard boiled egg, veggie chips (yam, potato, and beet)

Lunch- 1/2 sweet potato quesadilla with sour cream, 1 crab cake (with mayo alternative and relish), 1 snack pack sized chocolate pudding

Dinner- We hosted a family party and I figured instead of sitting back and eating whatever, I decided to take a pro-active approach to what we were going to be eating tonight.  So…I made a bunch of healthy food for the fam to enjoy.  The first thing I made was sweet potato quesadillas.  They always have em at the health food store, I figured they couldn’t be too hard to make.  I baked 2 sweet potatoes in the oven for about an hour and a half, peeled the skin off, and mashed them.  I then took whole wheat tortillas and spread vegetarian refried beans on half the tortilla.  I think added the mashed sweet potatoes and cheese and warmed them up with a little olive oil in the frying pan.  It was awesome and a huge hit with the fam! 

My uncle made burgers (which I didn’t partake in) but instead loaded up on the broiled veggies and salad I made.  I  broiled egg plant, asparagus, and Italian squash.  I drizzled olive oil and balsamic vinegar over veggies with sea salt and broiled for maybe 15 min.  So tasty and easy!  I also made a salad with baby organic spinach, cherry tomatoes, hard boiled eggs, cheddar cheese and carrots.  Topped it with a balsamic honey mustard dressing.  Totally satisfying!  

Dessert- My aunt made brownies…so I enjoyed 1 large brownie
