We've been talking about doing Whole30 again. I love it as a concept...I just wish someone would make all the meals and feed them to me (instead of me making all the meals and feeding them to other people! The problem is the things that you normally buy, like mayo, salad dressing, and BBQ sauce. If you're following the Whole30 rules, you've gotta make your own or go without!). We had "hash" for lunch today -- 2 sweet potatoes, 3 Aidell's chicken sausage, handful of spinach, 5 eggs. (Cube the potatoes, cook til soft, add the sausage, cook til browned, add the spinach, cook til wilted, add the eggs, cook til scrambled. Voila!) It's a good meal, breakfast, lunch, or dinner, and it's Whole30 compliant. So I thought I'd look up some new recipes in preparation -- they are all insane! Hand-filleted bison burgers with a side dish of mixed vegetables and fresh herbs that only take 3 months to grow in a garden, two days to precisely chop, and an hour to roast. Again, I wouldn't mind being fed such a dish, but it's not something I can manage (and it probably wouldn't taste good if I tried!) What's so hard about "eat fresh fruits and vegetables and meat that's as humanely treated, organic, and antibiotic and hormone free as possible).
Then I ate the chicken thighs from the other night that were left over for dinner, and half of a Bobby's caramel apple. Yum! So my lunch was Whole30 compliant -- 15 minutes is a good start! Now to stretch that to 30 days!
Steve ran 17 miles as part of his marathon training. I ran 6, and did Piyo and Zumba at the gym. It was almost cold today! Glorious. Fall is so much better for running, especially when there's a cool breeze. It should be nice the next two days, before it gets hot again.
