Day 6- There's butter in my coffee!

This morning I decided to add some flavor to my espresso. I've been reading about the Bulletproof coffee so I decided to modify a bit since I didn't have any of their beans. I have a Nespresso machine so I added 2 shots of espresso, 1 cup water, 2 tbsp kerrygold, & 1 tbsp coconut butter. I added those all to the vitamix and I got a frothy delight 

I enjoyed my butter coffee w/eggs, bacon, sausage, herb biscuits and guacamole 

For lunch, I made the cracklin' chicken from nom nom paleo. It's delicious!  I served it w/a salad

For dinner, I had left over chicken, jicama and a sweet potato. 

Day 3- Cooking with a baby

Day 3 has been a bit difficult because I had a list of things to cook.  It's kinda hard to cook with a crying baby so I brought her along for the ride to teach her a thing or two about clean eating :)

 

Today I made some flax/chia seed crackers and the savory herb drop biscuits from the 21DSD book. I also made the Asian style meatballs and the red cabbage and bok choy slaw for lunch. 

Some of the items came out over done because I had to attend to the needs of my little diva :)

I made the Herb cheese and had it with my chia/flax seed crackers for my snack.  These were the broken crumbles that were left over. I know this doesn't look that appetizing but it was good 

I also had a protein shake at some point during the day. My protein shake usually consists of any or all of these ingredients:

Almond/coconut milk

Kale

Almond butter

Vanilla extract

Frozen banana

Cacao powder

Hemp protein powder

Hemp has a lot of protein so it keeps me satisfied for a little bit. 

Dinner was nothing exciting. Just leftover beef stew and a Greek salad I made from the Food Lover's cook book. 

Since I'm breastfeeding, I get hungry easily so I had to have a baked sweet potato and some turkey slices a couple hours after I had dinner. That hit the spot and I'll have to remember to eat a sweet potato a day.
