know it is never easy to keep up with any diet or lifestyle when you are chasing kids around all day, but i have found left overs to be the best way to keep on track, that and if you know you will be away from home for a long period of time eat before you walk out the door, take snack and water and it should hopefully keep you away from the drive thru window.
so for lunch yesterday, which by the way i didn't get make until about 3:30 and i think i actually ate around 4:15, it only took about 5 min to make, but little princess Marley was in need of some extra attention so lunch got put on pause. once i finally got to enjoy it, oh did i, it was amazing, refreshing and totally satisfying.
i keep in my fridge whole wheat tortilla's (from costco) and hummus (also from costco), i would highly recomend you do the same...the tortilla's can be cut up in to 1/8th and toasted in the oven with a little sesame oil and sea salt...then dipped in to the hummus, a favorite snack of mine.
back to lunch, so i made a whole wheat tortilla with hummus, quinoa* (left over from Tuesday) and fresh cucumber, add some soy flaxseed tortilla chips and lunch is served!
this delicious lunch was followed up by a portabello mushrooms on the grill, steamed french green beans and pinapple for dinner last night, another YUMMY meal!
*quinoa recipe includes: quinoa, dried cranberry, toasted sunflower seeds, cinnamon, a bay leaf, pinch of salt, water and any broth cube flavor you have on hand (only a quarter of it)
