I was so excited that I've been able to stick with this and lose weight, that I went out LC shopping and I found some good deals:
EGGS
I found eggs on sale 5 dozen for $2.99US. Around here I usually spend $1 to $1.30 per dozen. What a bargain!!! I'm wondering if I should get back there before the sale ends and pick up another. I'm eating tons of eggs, gone through about 2 dozen this week anyway (mostly breakfast). Inexpensive protein, no carbs!
eggies--eggies---eggies---eggies--eggies
How many different ways can I eat eggies: scramble them, fry them, bake them, boil them, eggie salad, deviled eggies, eggies in the tuna salad, eggies w/steak, eggie crepes, eggies baked into breakfast bars, eggie quiche, eggie sauces, eggies as thickeners--Ooooh, maybe I will pick up another 5 dozen before sale ends.
NUTS
I also noticed that the nuts were out--you know the ones in the shell. The people in the store looked at me weird when I danced around saying "Oh goodie, the nuts are out to play". The store manager laughed when I told him this followed by "When the nuts come out to play, then I'm not so lonely". I love it when the nuts are in season--I love to buy them in the shell and crack them open and
YUMMY
I foresee in the near future: Cheesecake w/almond meal crust
I wonder if I can do anything w/eggies and nuts.......nothing is coming to mind, but if anyone knows--tell me soon
My refrigerator and freezer are full of meat and eggs and my cupboards are full of nuts. I even stopped by health food store and picked up flax seeds and guar gum to try out some recipes I've found here.
Enjoying this WOL.
