Whole 30: What We’ve Been Eating
Today is Day 14 of our Whole 30! I can’t believe we are just about half way there. I haven’t said too much about it because it hasn’t felt super noteworthy this time around. Maybe the third time really is the charm? 🙂
We both miss booze (what else is new?) but beyond that, Garrett and I are feeling really good. We’ve been eating REALLY well, and part of that is because it summer and there are so many great fruits and vegetables in season. But the other contributor is that I have made time to plan/make some super delicious food!
I thought I would share some of my favorites:
The Good Old Standbys
*Taco Salads (although I use a Whole 30 compliant dressing)
Recipes I Had Forgotten About But Will Now Be RESSURECTING Even When Whole 30 is Over
*Slow Cooker Baby Back Ribs with Paleo BBQ Sauce
New Recipes I Tried This Time Around That Turned Out AWESOME
Blackened Shrimp Lettuce Wraps (I just used the spice rub from this recipe and just sauteed them on high heat in ghee)
******
I continue to learn this over and over again when I do the Whole 30, but it is amazing how good simple food can taste. We’re eating good and feeling good, and I’m not sure there is much more we could ask for.
(Uh, besides a glass of wine, obvs.)
