Pulpalicious!

Breakfast was the same as yesterday. TJ's gluten free waffles with blueberries. Organic, fair trade expresso roast coffee
I was at a friend's house and quickly became very hungry. In desperation, I downed one of my yummy candy bars (so wish I didnt have to do this but I could feel my blood sugar dropping)
I came home and made this juice while my organic Kale chips baked in the oven
Lots of organic baby carrots
1 bunch of organic romaine
1 organic green apple
It was sooo good!

I had a bright idea when I saw the colorful pulp! Why not put it on my wrap?
So, I put the pulp on top of my turkey, pepperjack, spinach leaves, and spicy mustard
Oh man, was it amazing!! Definitely putting it on my dinner salad...not only is it a great way to be resourceful, it gives me my extra veggies I need!
And here's the finished product. Yummy wrap with organic, kale chips on the side! Washing it down with Spring Water as I type.

Now, I am off to do my BSF homework, get some core workouts in, play on FB, and make the yummy dark chocolate resse's cups...Check back in for pics of those and dinner tonight!


Update: Reese's 101
                                                
First you melt the boom, Choco boom, vegan bars


Pour the chocolate into the muffin paper

                                                    
Add some almond butter
Add more chocolate and top off with chia seeds. Freeze for 10 minutes
Take out of paper and enjoy some yummy superfood goodness!

Just made up the BEST salad EVER:
Organic Shrimp Salad
Spinach leaves topped generously with the pulp from earlier that consisted of organic carrots, romaine and green apple
Sauteed shrimp in olive oil, fresh organic pineapple slices, cayenne pepper, and ground ginger
Added the shrimp and topped it off with organic mango, chopped onions, parmesan, and walnut halves
Seriously this was the best salad and so filling! It was packed fiber, protein, veggies and was the perfect balance of sweet and spicy.

What'd you eat today?

You know mostly the things I shouldn't eat when I want to lose weight.

Looks delicous yet again! Great idea with the pulp. I tried to make pulp crackers but they weren't a big hit. For lunch I put a left over tilapia on the rice wrap with home made avocado cumin dressing I made last night. It was really good. Still not for sure what is for dinner but I set out some turkey :).

Abby: seriously you must put the pulp on your wraps and salads! It is so delicious!! I cant stress it enough...also, I bet it would be great on a lettuce wrap or something like that...PERFECT!!! And what a great way to save money as well!! Can you tell I am excited? lol
And I really want to try your avocado dressing...I have yet to make dressings...sounds so amazing!
We need to make the avocado mousse!
