A New Recipe!

Sorry, I did not post yesterday, it completely slipped my mind, and I need to start putting reminders on my phone.

I almost took the whole day off today because I woke up tired. I went to bed early, instead, I got up and took a walk.

I have a recipe for everyone and it looks yummy. I will be making the double chocolate paleo banana bread tomorrow and will take pics to show you.

Here is the link for 5 ingredient smothered chicken:

It looks so good, I may have to try it soon too.

Today has been great overall, I am going to knit a little bit and watch something. Have a wonderful weekend!

Life

 Wow, it has been a long time since my last post! Not a lot has been going on, things are good in life along with the mental/health journey. 

Weight is coming off slowly, I am training for a 13k in May, today I walked 5k.

I do have a link to a recipe for you folks, I have not tried it but I hope to in the future. Also, I will apologize if this is a repeat link from another one of my posts. I should keep track.

Chocolate Paleo Banana Bread

 Hello and happy Sunday! I found a recipe online and it looks sooooo good!!!

I am hoping to make it this coming week, I just need the almond flour and coconut flour, and ripe bananas. I have everything else already since I went to the store on Thursday.

Here is the link:  https://www.ambitiouskitchen.com/double-chocolate-paleo-banana-bread/

It looks easy and very yummy too. When I do make it I will take photos and make a post about it.

That is what I have for today, I started knitting a new project and been working on that and have messed up already but I like how it is coming out.

Recipes!!!

 Hello and happy Saturday everyone! I am sorry that I have not posted on Fridays like I usually do. The app on my phone to post on here is being all funky and not letting me post pics which is sad. So for now, I may just post about recipes and figure out a way to post pics and write from my computer. 

Just so you all know I am not that tech-savvy but as long as my computer works and does not have an issue, I can use my computer.

I have been eating better, not 100% but I am trying to stick to better foods, I am skipping maybe 3 weeks of Factor_ meals because of fiances and I am trying to save plus I need to save up for dental work too. It's not fun giving up things but it is necessary.

The first link (below) is a video on how to make banana berry nice cream and it sounds yummy and is easy to make. I will be trying this in the future too and when I do, I will write about it. It uses almond milk but you may be able to use different milk or add a different yogurt and see how it comes out.

The next link is for Dark Chocolate Yogurt pudding and this sounds amazing!!!

It looks very yummy and both links look easy to make. You can make them for the kids and with the kids if you are looking for something to do and they are healthy too.

I use MyFitnessPal to track and log food, they offer recipes and show you what some meals may look like if you are trying to stick in a certain range of calories. 

I wanted to share these with anyone who is reading my blog and thank you for reading. I hope to help out folks who read this and bring you some great ideas.

Thank you for reading and have a great weekend!

Today was Splurge Day!

Today was a splurge day for me and I didn’t do a workout. I try to workout everyday even if it’s a little bit, it helps me mental attitude. Today was a day of rest and relaxation.

Yesterday I posted about my attempt at stir fry, usually I do better at stir fry but the sauce I used was not a good idea. I did debate a little bit about ordering Chinese food today but decided to do it anyways.

After ordering the food online, I waited and relaxed til I needed to leave because I chose to pick it up. Normally it would be delivered but I felt like getting outside for a bit.

I’m glad I splurged today and the food is so good! I have not had Chinese food in a long time plus it was nice to go to the restaurant and see the people working there and getting to say hi.

During this pandemic, it has not been easy on any business and I’m happy to support a business for takeout when I can.

When I got home, I got what I needed and sat down to watch something. I chose Netflix and watched the documentary on the Hotel Cecil and it was good.

There are no other plans for today, I felt like posting and talking about today and food, lol.

Not much is new in my life, I’m able to work and happy with that, just resting today is my “self care”. Hopefully, I will get outside this coming week and go for a walk.

Have fun today, enjoy the weekend and get some self care in too. ❤️

Attempt at Stir Fry

Sorry no photos today.

I attempted a beef and broccoli stir fry and used a garlic balsamic dressing on the beef. It didn’t come out tasting good.

I may have used too much sauce and I didn’t finish the rice. Maybe I will get takeout tomorrow.

Next time I try a stir fry I will use a different sauce and see how it goes. 

Sorry if I hadn’t posted in a week, I have been down lately and I will try to be better about posting.

Brotrition!
