The detox diet is over…yesterday was a wonderful celebration/feast of both the end of the diet and Easter! It’s nice to be done, but one thing I’m going to continue doing (especially in light of the way I feel this morning!) is seriously cutting back on my sugar.
Last week was Spring Break around here and since my husband works in a school we took advantage and took some vacation days. And I got some time off from cooking, so our plans for this week are similar since we didn’t make everything last week! I did make the Spicy Squash Nuggets and they were amazing! No one else would eat them, but I delightfully ate all four servings and froze one for later! So here’s this week’s plan:
Sunday
Breakfast: Scrambled eggs, Apple Cider donuts, strawberries, COFFEE (First time in six weeks! Woo!)
Dinner: At someone’s house. I brought a jello salad (it’s my mom’s favorite) and this Irresistible Grilled Shrimp. Both were a big hit. Thank goodness for an understanding hostess who cooked scalloped potatoes with earth balance and almond milk and a wonderful array of veggies that were all gluten free and dairy free!
Supper: I was not that hungry after the huge lunch so I had some “ice cream” and called it a night.
Rest of the week:
Breakfasts:
Leftover Apple Cider Donuts, scrambled eggs
Banana “Oat” Pancakes
Banana Apple Muffins
Coconut milk smoothie
Overnight “Oat” Waffles (adapted to be GF, DF and Oat free of course!)
Lunch/Dinner:
Fish of some sort
Tomato Avocado Salad
Zucchini & Potato casserole (Mini Meatloaves for the meat eaters)
Chickpea of the Sea
GF, DF Lasagna, Salad
Pizza, Salad (probably twice as I have a “Ladies Night Out” this week and I’m bringing something easy that I can eat!
Smoothie, Popcorn
And of course…LEFTOVERS!
