Back to basics!

I'm back! Had a long work weekend and just finished off my raw week with more of the same fruits and salads and whatnot.  Back to cooked food today and I'm not gonna lie, I am kinda glad to be back to normal.  I enjoy eating more raw meals during the summer, but a completely raw diet isn't for me.  I do have lots of yummy new recipes though!

Today I had a killer training session. It felt really good to be back to normal :)  Check out the eats!


Breakfast: WHile shopping in Whole Foods last week I found some gluten free english muffins! I really miss my english muffin sandwiches so I decided to get them and have them as a yummy comforting treat every once in a while. I figured that it would only be appropriate to eat a really good comforting first cooked meal in a week so I went for one of my favorite classics: english muffin with peanut butter, banana and cinnamon. And it was damn good.

Midmorning: Iced coffee (the caffeine habit is here to stay for a bit) and some watermelon.


Lunch (and dinner): Lunch was a delicious huge ass plate of rice and beans with green beans and some zucchini (both cooked in tomato, garlic and oil). It was so good!  I ate the leftovers for dinner!

Post workout: Protein shake.

It feels great to be back to normal! :)

  1. I'm with you on the total raw diet. I love adding more raw foods into my diet, but raw full time is too much for me. I did make my own almond milk over the weekend and it was great.
    Your lunch looks fantastic!

  4. oh I only lasted 2 days no caffeine. I was so over it. I figured I should be allowed one vice in my life, so I guess it's coffee!
