Like I mentioned in my last post, I had company here last week. We ate raw most of the time, with just 3 meals out of the whole 6 days having cooked foods. Then there was yesterday. The departure day. We both ate things we shouldn't - her while on the road, me here at home. We agreed (via text messaging) that the yucky way we were feeling last night wasn't worth convincing ourselves it was "comfort food" because we were crying, and we're going to be good again starting today.
Some of the things we tried last week:
Raw (bean-less) Falafel with Cucumber Dill Dressing (Yum! We wrapped it in lettuce leaves with slices of tomato)
Chocolate-Orange Tavoletta (good, if you like DARK chocolate. I skipped the marbling on top.)
Oatmeal-Nut Butter Balls (can't find it online, but it was basically oats, almond butter, chopped almonds & pecans, sesame seeds, raisins, sunflowers seeds and honey mixed together and rolled into balls, then rolled in unsweetened shredded coconut) It's suggested to use peanut butter instead of almond butter, because it has more flavor, but her middle son is allergic to peanuts, so we opted for almond butter instead.
No plans yet for this week. Every evening there's something going on, so I don't know what we'll be doing for dinners yet.
My Progression
