I have now completed Day 17 of Whole30. For some reason I have really felt like making chili and stews lately. Yes, I realize it is extremely hot in the middle of the South Carolina summer, but I am ready for fall. Since I am staying away from nightshades right now, I needed to come…
Whole30-Day 16 Dijon Pork Tenderloin and Mashed Roasted Cauliflower and Garlic
I have now completed Day 16 of Whole30. Since I will be traveling this week and away from my beloved kitchen I decided to make a “fancy” meal for dinner. I think this would make a great holiday or Sunday dinner. This Dijon Pork Tenderloin and Mashed Roasted Cauliflower with Garlic was perfection. My meals…
Whole30-Day 15 Prosciutto Wrapped Cucumber and Slow Cooker “Apples”
I have now completed Day 15 of Whole30. Things are still going well and I love how I feel on this Whole30 Plan. I am a little nervous because I will be traveling for work later in the week and I really want to stay on plan. I will be taking some food with me…
Whole30-Day 14 and Ranch Fries
I have now completed Day 14 of Whole30. The water I was retaining seems to be going away so it must have been something I ate. I’m still trying to figure out what exactly is causing the bloat. It can be so frustrating sometimes doing an elimination diet, but in the end I know it…
Whole30-Day 13 and Ranch Chicken Skewers
I have now completed Day 13 of Whole30. I am retaining some weight today and I’m not exactly sure what it is from. It could be the shrimp or it could be the sauerkraut I’ve been adding to my salads. If it is the sauerkraut then I could have a problem with FODMAPs. I really…
Whole30-Day 12 and Pesto Shrimp
I have now completed Day 12 of Whole30. I had a dream that I made cookies using almond flour and almond butter. In my dream, I woke up all congested and I was convinced that it was because of the sweetener. I couldn’t possibly be allergic to almonds! *Gasp* Luckily I haven’t tested whether or…
Whole30-Day 11 and Spiced Chicken Thighs
I have now completed Day 11 of Whole30. I was slightly hungrier today and it seems like I cannot seem to go more than 5 hours without eating. I also get tired around 3 or 4 PM (just in time for me to workout). Usually working out helps me feel energized so I push through the…
Whole30-Day 8 and Spinach and Mushroom Chicken Roulade
I have now completed Day 8 of Whole30. When I woke up this morning I wasn’t very hungry. I eventually made myself some breakfast, but I could only finish half. I ended up saving the rest for lunch. It is so nice not having to fight hunger pangs all day and I’m so happy Whole30…
Whole30-Day 7 and Turkey Pesto Meatballs
I have now completed Day 7 of Whole30. I tried cutting back on snacks today and it feels like I should be snacking especially when I’m sitting at my desk at work. I need to find something to replace the snacking and so far I’ve been drinking water instead. I went out to dinner on…
Low Carb Kale Chips
While watching TV I saw a recipe for Kale Chips. I’ve never had kale, but I saw how crispy they got in the oven and I thought they would make a good low carb snack. Comments: So I was a little hesitant to try these kale chips, but after seeing so many recipes with kale…
