Life In The Shallow End

By

Breakfast

I almost always eat my oatmeal in a bowl that is now shallow. (I describe it like that because my bowls are not necessarily deep either. I think they’d technically be called cereal bowls.) But, yesterday Mazen insisted on serving breakfast and picked out our shallow Pottery Barn soup bowls. These are ideal for pastas and salads, but I don’t ever use them for oatmeal. It sure made for a pretty bowl, though. And not to get all wacko on you, but coming from someone who has been eating oatmeal religiously for a decade, the “eating experience” was quite different!!!

The oatmeal was whipped banana cottage cheese plus chia seeds, peanut butter, granola sprinkle and honey drizzle!

I’m not much of a snacker, so no morning snacks to report!

Lunch

I had lunch at noon, and whipped up some canned salmon salad with curry powder! An old favorite! I used to eat this all the time with Kashi crackers back in the early days of the blog. My favorite was with red curry powder, which I haven’t been able to find in stores recently. This is one can of Whole Foods brand Alaskan pink salmon, 2 tbsp Greek yogurt, 1 tbsp mayo, 1 tbsp relish, 2 teaspoons curry power, sea salt, and pepper to taste. Carrot chips make my chip addiction half healthy! 😉 The mango was for dessert.

Dinner Prep

I made dinner right after lunch! My favorite meatball recipe. (This post has even more versions).

I went with the original version – sun-dried tomatoes, spinach and parmesan.

I used grass-fed beef.

Into the fridge they went until dinnertime. It’s a simple 30 minutes at 425 degrees to cook them off.

Snack

Apples and trail mix with Mazey!

Dinner

We had the meatballs over fresh pasta with marinara sauce. I had an early dinner because I had an indoor soccer game at 8pm (aka bedtime), which was clearly my workout of the day!

Dessert with a curious pooch!

Post-Workout Coffee Protein Shake

Once again, I’ve partnered with Brother  to show the versatility of the  Brother P-touch Label Maker , especially when it comes to fitness and gym equipment.  As always, thank you for supporting CNC! I receive quite a few questions from readers about what I eat before, during, and after workouts, so I decide to share those with you today. It changes a little bit from workout-to-workout, but I keep a general framework in mind. BEFORE (approximately 30 minutes): I typically eat a small snack made up of mostly simple carbs since they provide quick energy. Some favorites: Half of a banana or another piece of whole fruit, a protein bar, handful of raisins, or a rice cake with jam and sometimes nut butter (it just depends how hungry I am and the timing of my workout). DURING : I typically don’t consume anything during my workouts, unless they’re longer than 90 minutes, like if I’m training for a long distance race (i.e. half marathon). In that case, I’ll take an energy gel and water ev

If you’re looking for a one-stop shop to organize your digital life, check out Evernote! Here’s my Evernote review and all the great features you can use to make your thoughts, notes, and files easy to find, sort, and save.  This post is sponsored by Evernote .  Raise your hand if your digital life feels cluttered. If we were in a room, almost everyone’s hand would go up, including mine!  With so much of our lives digitized these days, it’s hard not to get overwhelmed with all the information we need to save and reference. And because computers, the internet, and living in email and calendars are relatively new to humans, we as a society are still learning good systems. If I asked you to organize a paper filing cabinet, you’d probably have a few good ideas on how to do that. But if I asked you to organize a computer hard drive, many of us get stumped on the sheer volume of files and the endless ways to sort.  The good news is there are apps that make this process more intuitiv
