J doesn’t eat hardly any sweets, carbs, or processed foods. He has lost 20 pounds and feels better overall since implementing this lifestyle per his doctors request. Breakfast is a snap because he eats eggs with a breakfast meat and drinks coffee. Dinners have been really simple. I just have to prepare a meat for the main course and veggies for a side.
Lunch is the kicker. Sandwiches and hot foods are pretty much out. That leaves salad. Lucky for J he genuinely likes salads. His favorite one is from a restaurant called Buffalo Rings and Things. He raved about it, told me what was in it, and I did my best to come up with a knock off. Here is my recipe
7 cups of mixed greens
1 sliced chicken breast
1/2 sliced avocado
1 sliced hard boiled egg
1 piece of bacon crumbled
1/4 cup of kalamata olives
1/4 cup bleu cheese sprinkled
1/4 cup blue cheese dressing
This is what his daily to go meals look like when he leaves for work.
Eggs in a mug, coffee with cream in a mug, and salad with dressing on the side in an 2 quart tupperware. We change it up sometimes, but for the most part this is the routine and it’s been working out well.
Tomorrow I’ll give some examples SJ’s lunch on the go. For the rest of the series Captain of the Kitchen. Check out the table of contents HERE.
This looks and sounds tasty! I’ll have to try it.
Looks like a great salad. I make Michael a salad with spinach, crasins, goat cheese and walnuts. It needs a protein. I should add chicken or try out yours!
That sounds incredible. J and I both love goat cheese.
I will try this, it looks SO good!
