B: 2 eggs, 3 mushrooms, 4 mini peppers, 1 cup broccoli, 1/2 avocado
S: 2/3 chicken breast, artichoke hearts, baby carrots, 1/4 cup coconut flakes
L: beef kabob, mushrooms, red peppers, zucchini
D: pork fried cauliflower "rice", 1/2 avocado
(First day of school went alright. I made it through the month without a ton of sugar. The main item was a can of 7-up last week. It was not worth it. It's been really nice not fighting with food on a daily basis. If I take the time to plan ahead a little bit I know I can eat this way all school year and that's a nice thing to understand.)

Day 66 - August 30, 2011
B: 2 eggs, 1/2 avocado, 3 mushrooms, 4 mini peppers, 1 cup broccoli
S: 2/3 chicken breast, baby carrots, artichoke hearts
L: chicken breast, 1/2 cup salad, 1/4 cup fruit salad
S: 1/4 cup pork chop, 1/2 avocado, baby carrots
D: Steak kabob, mushrooms, red peppers, zucchini
I made more eggplant caponata so I can take it for my lunch the rest of the week.
(It worked out that today was a cooking day. I made the eggplant stuff, another batch of pork fried cauliflower "rice" and the steak kabobs. I think I'm ready for tomorrow. And if not, well it's coming anyways.)

Day 65 - August 29, 2011
B: 2 eggs, avocado, 1 cup broccoli, 3 mushrooms, 3 mini peppers
S: 2 cups raw baby carrots, 1/4 cup coconut flakes
L: 2/3 chicken breast and artichoke hearts in a lemon sauce
D: Leftover pork fried cauliflower "rice", 1 handful raw baby carrots
(I really like the pork fried "rice" leftover. The flavors have a chance to meld together. Tastes so good. I "name" my summers. Last summer was "yosemite, chicago/michigan/ben, and mosaics". This summer was "New York, grandpa's, and cooking". I'm so glad I've been able to try so many new recipes this past month. It's been fun.)

Day 64 - August 28, 2011
B: 2 eggs, 1/2 avocado, 2 slices canadian bacon, 3 mushrooms, 4 mini peppers, 1 cup broccoli.
S: 3 lamb meatballs, 2 mini cucumbers.
L: Chicken enchiladas, fruit salad.
S: 1/2 avocado, handful of baby carrots.
D: Pork fried cauliflower "rice".
(The lamb meatballs were interesting. I have 17 of them frozen. I'm ready for school to start but then again not really. I'm going to get to know kids for ten months and then 75 out of 200 of them will be gone. They'll graduate. I've already taught some of these kids when they were in the 9th or 10th grade. It's so hard for me to say goodbye that for the first time I don't want the year to start. Oh well, this is what I do, and I do love it. I'm not planning on being a crazy eating person this year so that in and of itself should make this a better year than last year. Here's to the adventure.)

Day 63 - August 27, 2011
B: 2 eggs, 1 cup broccoli, 1/2 avocado, 4 peppers, 3 mushrooms.
L: Beef stew, cooked carrots, romaine.
S: Part of a pork chop, raw baby carrots, 2 baby cucumbers, 1/2 avocado
D: Chicken, beef, guacamole, green salsa, eggplant caponata, salad with walnuts and fruit, paleo brownie
(I have a lot of leftover pork which will be good for my fried "rice". I need to make the lamb meatballs tomorrow morning. I wonder if you freeze them before or after you cook them. This will be about the tenth new recipe I've tried this month. It's been fun. When school starts and things get crazy I need to remember that planning ahead and eating well is worth it.)

Day 62 - August 26, 2011
B: 2 eggs, 1/2 avocado, broccoli, mushrooms, peppers, 3 small tomatoes
L: Lamb kabobs, grilled veggies, roasted artichoke hearts for The Olive Pit
S: 2 hard boiled eggs, 1/2 avocado, 2 cucumbers, raw baby carrots, coconut flakes
D: Beef stew, cooked baby carrots, coconut flakes, raw baby carrots, romaine
(I need to drink more water. Sometimes when I think I'm hungry, I'm pretty sure I'm just thirsty. I found pine nuts today at Sprouts in Brea. They were on sale for $20/pound...what? I got about 1/4 of a cup and it cost less than $3 so not too bad. Now I can try the true lamb meatball recipe probably on Sunday. Tomorrow I want to grill pork chops so I can make the pork fried cauliflower "rice" again. Back to work on Monday. Should be interesting.)

Day 61 - August 25, 2011
B: 2 eggs, 1/2 avocado, 1 cup steamed broccoli, 3 mushrooms, 4 mini peppers
L: 2/3 of a chopped salad from The Corner Bakery
S: Chicken, 1/2 avocado
D: Sirloin, peppers, lettuce, peanut slaw from Lucille's
(Good day. I definitely need to eat 4 times a day. My headache lingered this morning but finally went away. I wanted to make lamb meatballs tomorrow and the recipe calls for pine nuts. I looked at Whole Foods and they were $12.99 for like a cup of pine nuts, so I'm either leaving them out or getting them someplace else. I decided a few days ago that I do not like the coconut butter but I know coconut is a good fat so I bought coconut flakes today at Whole Foods. We'll see.)
