a "what did you eat today" tribe? (come on and join us!!!) - Page 3

Ok, so yesterday I made taco soup for lunch (chicken bone broth, black and kidney beans, some salsa, taco seasoning and corn). Ate it with a big ole dollop of sour cream of course.

Side note: Does anyone know if "vegetable" corn...like what you would eat on corn on the cob or in a can, not dried, is considered a grain? I know it is a grain when dried, but I figure since it is not possible to grow a plant with not-yet-dried corn then it does not yet contain all the seed qualities that would make it a grain. Yes, no?

Dinner yesterday: finally got to cook my chicken. leftover potatoes and squash as the sides.

Breakfast today: none of my usual breakfast choices were to be had, so I ate some pecans and had a spoonful of coconut oil

lunch: more taco soup

dinner: husband cooked grass-fed beef hamburgers with cheese, side of corn (yes, again with the corn).

The chocolate "pudding" I make goes like this: In a splash of boiling water, dissolve some cocoa powder & beef gelatin. Fill up with either cow's cream or coconut milk & mix. I add 2 drops of stevia glycerite to about 2-3 cups of this mixture. Once it sets in the fridge for a couple of hours, it's thick like pudding. If you use more gelatin, it sets like jello.

today- not such a good tf day....

breakfast was leftover oatmeal with blueberries and maple syrup and butter/cream, salt. coffee with cream.

lunch was 2 eggs from our chickens fried in coconut oil with lots of salt and some cheddar. Snack was some milk, and totally normal choc chips walnut cookies made with maple syrup.(which makes it not such a good tf day) another cup of coffee( I make mine in a mokka pot strong) with cream. Also some homemade sun dried tomato bread and leftover turkey meat, lots of salt.

dinner is on the stove stewing now. Red cabbage soup with lots of onions, garlic, caraway, thyme, lemon pepper, coconut vinegar, a bit of maple syrup, canned tomatoes, salt, chicken broth and some other stuff I may be forgetting. I will also add half a turkey keilbasa I have leftover. I may eat a few hardboiled eggs with it as well.

since I am pregnant I usually have a nighttime snack of apples and peanut butter or cheese, but I am out of apples. I also will have my usual pregnancy tea with raw honey.
