2 more work days til the Healthy Living Summit! I can barely contain myself 🙂 I think I might actually be able to get my business cards after all!!! I’ll post pictures when I actually have them in my possession.
Breakfast #1
Last night, I made up a double batch of scrambled eggs. These consisted of:
- 2 large eggs
- 6 egg whites
- S&P
- Red Pepper Flakes
- a splash of water
When the eggs were almost finished cooking, I tossed a little Frank’s Red Hot on top:
I also roasted up 2 cups of broccoli. I had half of this for breakfast this morning with a dollop of Heinz ketchup:

Breakfast #2
Overnight oats!!! How many times can I photograph the same exact bowl of overnight oats?? Geesh.
I wonder if overnight oats are considered a “liquid.” Would like to take some of these guys with me to the airport 🙂

Lunch
Last night I mixed up chicken salad consisting of:
- 2.5 ounces grilled chicken breast
- 1 stalk celery, chopped
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro
- 1/4 Stonyfield Farms plain fat-free yogurt
- 1/4 cup chopped onion
- 1/4 teaspoon curry powder
- 1/4 cup red grapes, halved
I made a similar chicken salad a while back, and really liked it. Today’s was just ehhh ok though. I think it was the addition of the celery.
I served it on top of a bed of romaine lettuce:
I also had two pickle spears, and part of a Joseph’s low carb pita… Anyone else ever experience “low-carb” headaches? I’ve heard about it before, and a little while ago I started noticing the correlation between headaches and the Joseph’s low-carb pitas! Today I had half of the pita before I started to notice a headache coming on. So odd… but I think I’m done with these pitas… Hopefully Mama Lupe comes out with a low carb pita soon 🙂

Plans for dinner: Having two of my lovely friends over for dinner tonight 🙂 I have a special dessert project for them… hope they’re ready to be guinea pigs!

Mmm, all of this looks so good! I have been all about eggs lately, I figure my body is needing them 🙂
how do you even go about finding something like that out – if you can take oats into the airport…? (if you find out, please let us know!)
have a great time at HLS… I’ll be there in spirit, while at a wedding on the other side of the country… 🙁
According to this website, yogurt, jello, and pudding are considered liquids. Overnight oats, however, are not specifically addressed.. hahaha
