White fish Ceviche and Mexican street corn salad (made with a greek yogurt dressing). Below is what I plated for myself but decided to go for seconds for the ceviche and only had one bite of the corn salad (which was really good).

Meals from the last few days-

those cheesy stuffing waffles with over easy eggs and griddled tomatoes (clearly didn’t eat it all)

cottage cheese mixed with cooked onions, bell pepper, and mushrooms then microwaved with marinara and turkey pepperoni (this I will definitely eat again)

lemon poppyseed bread with ricotta, sliced apple, and honey (ate about 3/4 the bread and ricotta)

polenta with French onion roasted green Beans (a kit from the produce section) and shrimp, onions and tomatoes in veggie broth (the kids had theirs mixed with rice)

spicy Thai chili tuna mixed with nonfat yogurt, more reduced sugar Thai chili sauce, and shredded lettuce. Only ate 10 of the Thai chili rice crisps

cottage cheese plate with an everything bagel, strawberries, mini bell peppers, Tomato slices, and lettuce (ate half the bagel, most of the cottage cheese and peppers and about half everything else)

Why are these grapes so big? Or are your hands petite?

They look like red globe grapes to me but I could be wrong. Fun fact- Japan has a grape variety that grows to almost the size of your palm! More about Japanese grapes here!

Dinner:

Homemade steaks!! I am so proud of how these turned out. Super juicy, super yummy and the homemade Chimichurri was out of this world good. I ate around 3 strips and couldn’t fit anything else, the meat was too filling.

dinner tonight:

Smash burger tacos Big Mac style. Lean ground beef on a mini mission low carb tortilla (my hand for reference), melted cheddar cheese (real cheddar not the plastic one), sliced dill pickles, jalapeños and gem lettuce drizzled with a little homemade big mac sauce. This meal is one of my favourites. See how I did below.

My motto is when you’re full, you don’t need to eat the last bite, so I left the last bite sitting there. 1 hour later I had one bite of the homemade roasted potato wedges and 3 broccoli florets.

The whole dinner spread for the above post (for context, yes I’m anal and a perfectionist I know)

[Arabesque 7,442]

Nothing wrong with being a perfectionist or anal @Lilia_90. Your spread looks wonderful.

lunch today was colourful.

White fish and shrimp ceviche that was really spicy due to the fresh jalapeños (sooo good). Mexican rice and a strawberry gem lettuce salad with roasted almonds and goat cheese.

I only ate a few spoonfuls of ceviche. Then a couple of hours later had a small bowl of salad.
