Thirteen has always been my lucky number. After breakfast, carpool and a 30 minute brisk walk around Walmart for exercise, I came home to spend a couple hours in food prep. and clean up. I started our Soft Shelled Tortillas on the dehydrator, made Pumpkin Seed Refried Beans to fill the tortillas, and Chili Cumin Almonds for a later snack. I am thankful to realize that two different items can be on the dehydrator at once if the flavors are similar. Wow! I think the dehydrator has been almost running non-stop for several days now. The food preparation is time consuming, but I'm learning short cuts, and preparation for any type of eating is time consuming. It is just a different style. (at least I can put things on the dehydrator and leave it for several hours without worry about burning it, or burning the house down-there are perks!)
Breakfast- Oat Groats with Raisins and a Veggie Green Smoothie
Oat groats is a 'so easy' breakfast. I soak the groats for one day on the counter, then soak another day in the fridge, then they are ready. Raisins are good, but if you want great-put fresh fruit on it! (I rinse the groats every few hours too)
Dinner- Soft-Shelled Tortillas with Pumpkin Refried Beans and other fresh taco fillings. These were great! Almost as good as the pizza!
Snacks-The Chili Cumin Almonds on the dehydrator were delicious! And Minty Chocolate Bites were a keeper too, along with the Almond milk Eggnog called Nog It Up! My husband loves eggnog, and he indicated that he would be willing to give it up for this!
Terri's BG- 96 (best day yet!-must be my Walmart exercise)
Melanie BG- 169 (Still trying to figure out why her BG level goes to 289 or thereabouts after her morning workout)
** I will share our smoothie recipes with you on tomorrow's post!
