Breakfast - Everything Bagel thin with butter and a cup of Trop 50 OJ. (275 calories)
Lunch - I made . . . . . . a salad! yup - for lunch - I made a salad. This salad had iceberg lettuce, a cucumber, shredded cheddar cheese, sunflower seeds and red wine vinegar. I also put about 4.5 ounces of chicken on there. Come to think about it, I forgot the chick peas! I may replace the sunflower seeds with Chick peas next time - or maybe half and half. Gotta check the calories there, but I feel like the chick peas will be more useful calories than the seeds. (450 calories.) 450??? That seems like a lot for a salad. Makes me feel better about my 600 calorie dinners. It's not much worse than a salad.
Snacking - 1/2 a rice krispie treat (45 calories) I may be losing it, but I think that's really all I snacked on today.
Dinner - Really went out on a limb today and made CHicken Tika Masala in the Instant Pot. Had a lot of weird things that I have never bought, tried, considered and would certainly never think to put together - things like Coconut Milk and plain Greek Yogurt and certain spices that I never heard of. It was AWESOME!!!!! Can't wait to make it again. (625 Calories)
As far as cooking it, I won't lie. It was not a simple throw it all in the Instant Pot and let it cook for 20 minutes. It was work. BUT worth it and in the end, it all just ended up in the same place - 1 pot - easy clean up. :-)
Here's the recipe I used: https://www.wellplated.com/instant-pot-chicken-tikka-masala/
Enjoy!!!
Water Note - Today, I totally forgot to drink water. I was talking about how I waited too long yesterday to start and I had to work at it. Then I realized it was 2:30 and I didn't start! hahaha. Also barely drank any more until about 5:30. Oops!!!!! I chugg-a-lugged prior to and after dinner and then used it the rest of the night to fend off the snacking.
1395 calories!! how about that? :-)
