I'm already thinking about the "what next"....
Life after the Whole30

Life after the Whole30
Last night at dinner I told Hubby we were on Day 17...I was so excited to realize we were actuall on Day 18!! I can't wait to tell him when he wakes up! He is going to be thrilled....and he was!
Breakfast:
Sautéed veggies, spinach, yellow & green bell peppers, tomato - today I sautéed in Ghee instead of coconut oil. Both are good, but I think I prefer the coconut oil.
Topped with a fried egg - I accidently popped the egg. I can't seem to get the hang of cooking eggs in stainless steel - one day it is great, the next not so great...I think it has more to do with the starting temperature of the pan. I'll let you know when I figure it out.

So, I'm thinking the Percocet has screwed up my Whole30. My energy level and appetite have both dropped a little since this little fracture to my arm. Today the swelling has finally gone down and I am hoping to be able to manage the pain without the help of narcotics.
SO speaking of lunch - I only ate 1/2 an avocado, a hard boiled egg, and a handful of nuts - but really I just wasn't hungry.

Dinner:
I know it doesn't look that exciting, but truly it was!
Mashed cauliflower - WHO FREAKING KNEW! Seriously, I thought I was going to HATE it. Come on MASHED CAULIFLOWER?!? Who made that shit up? I was in disbelief when I took a bite and freaking LOVED it. Hubby LOVED it too! Even Boy 1 who is my white potato FREAK (I didn't tell him what it was and made him guess...) said "It tastes like mashed potatoes, but then again it doesn't....it has a different taste. I'm not sure what it is, but yeah, I like it and would eat it again." He flipped when I told him it was mashed cauliflower! And said "but I don't like cauliflower! This is WAY better than eating real cauliflower!" And he is right. Way better than eating real cauliflower!
This is the recipe I used as a base for the cauliflower.
I'll post my version soon.
The other stuff in the bowl is yellow curry chicken in the crockpot. It was delicious, but I need to work on the recipe a bit as the sauce was WAY TOO thin.
