#Whole30 month #4 Week #1

I have started my 4th month in a row of #Whole30.
Below are the meals I came up with this week.
Enjoy!

I cooked some beef chunks and then used the beef juice to cook some shredded zucchini and grated carrots. I made lettuce wraps with it.

Iceberg lettuce, spinach, vine ripe tomato, olives, left over beef shredded, drizzled with coconut oil, lime juice, salt an pepper

My version of a chocolate shake, the #Paleo way. It's got a frozen banana, a spoon full of 100% cocoa powder (no dairy, no sweeteners, just pure cocoa), a medium size kale leaf, a handful of spinach leaves. Filled halfway with PureAlmond unsweetened vanilla Silk almond milk (no sweeteners, no carrageenan). Always read your labels, there's almond and coconut milk out there that have carrageenan, added sugar etc, same goes for cocoa.I finished filling it up to the max Line with water, so as far as the liquid is concerned it was half water half almond milk.

Angus choice roast beef "sandwich".

Zucchini, yellow squash, ripe plantain topped with a drizzle of evoo and Italian seasonings. Roasted in the oven at 350 till done.

Thick meat sauce that I made for the kids' spaghetti. I'm reserving a bowl of it for myself so I can use it on my veggies and eggs etc. Meat sauce contains Ground beef, Italian seasonings, garlic, tomato sauce.

2 mushrooms, sliced, 1 zucchini, 1 yellow squash, 1 tomato, chopped, sautéed in olive oil. Added meat sauce at the end.

Morning cup of Java with unsweetened vanilla almond milk.

Lettuce, tomato, almonds and meat sauce salad.

Scrambled eggs with meat sauce and ripe plantains, cooked in coconut oil. Spinach with lime juice and grapes.

Till next time,
Have a happy, healthy, crunchy green day! :-)

Crook caught on Tape - News coverage by CBS Atlanta

Here is the news story coverage by Veronica Griffin from CBS Atlanta which aired on Monday August 26th at 11 pm.

Family adds security cameras to catch crooks

Burglary on Jamerson Rd

A warning to neighbors living along Jamerson Rd near Canton Rd in Marietta near the Cherokee/Cobb county line:

A Thief stole a blower and a weed eater right out of our carport on Sunday August 25 at approximately 2:59 am.

Have you seen this Thief?

 

We filed a police report with Cobb County Police Department (Precinct #4) first thing Sunday morning.

I  want to send a warning to other people living along Jamerson Rd near Canton  Rd in Marietta (close to the Cherokee/Cobb county line), don't leave anything out in your carport! and file a police report if anything comes up missing!

These items were not visible from the road so this guy must of been scoping out the street on foot or watching my husband do yard work during the day.

It is not the first time things have come up missing. About 2 years back our tile saw was stolen out of the carport.  Just last week our next door neighbor on the corner found his vehicles had been riffled through, nothing missing but contents had been gone through. Further down the street also this year another neighbor had his bicycle stolen out of his carport and last year another neighbor on the same street had his music equipment stolen out of his house. (these last two neighbors i don't know which houses there were, they both alerted everyone on the street by going door to door letting everyone know what happened when it happened.)

#Whole30 Third month Week 4 #Paleo #Recipes

 Where has time gone. I have completed 12 weeks of Whole30 so far. 
I can't believe I have been grain, dairy, legume and sugar free for this long, but where there is a will there is a way.
I'm feeling great and fit. Here are the meals I came up with this past week.


Bacon, eggs and Yuca. Heated up the Yuca in the pan to char the outside a little, cooked the two eggs with tomato sauce.

Steak, Spaghetti squash w/ sauce, yuca w/ garlic, lime juice and evoo and broccoli with a tablespoon of homemade mayo for dipping.

The hubby made me bacon and eggs :-)

Tuna lettuce wraps. Tuna with homemade mayo, mustard, salt, pepper and raisins. Rolled up in two overlapping lettuce leaves.

Baked curry chicken breast, broccoli, yuca, leftover spaghetti squash and homemade mayo for dipping.

Ham, tomato, spinach and eggs for a filling breakfast.

Got home from the Gym hungry so I fixed this plate with left over baked curry chicken, cold, right out of the fridge. Added some spinach, a handful of olives, grapes, almonds, raisins and blueberries.

Today is end of Week 4 of my third month of whole30. I made a big pot of chopped cabbage, carrots, sweet potatoes, fresh grated ginger and coconut oil. Added some water, covered it and let it cook down. I seasoned it with salt and pepper. I also added beef sausage to it.

Grated some fresh ginger over boiling water, went out to the garden and picked some mint, added it to the boiling water. Then after I let it sit for a while I strained it into a jug. It will make an energizing refreshing drink later.

Till next time,
Have a happy healthy crunchy green day! :-)
