Weekly Bites #14 (Formerly "Bits & Bites")

Hello Hello! I hope every single one of you living in the Northeast have at least 10 minutes to spare today to get outside. 60-70 degree weather? Yes, please! 

Sooo it seems as though the "Bits & Bites" series is pretty popular on FFF so I've decided to make it a weekly post. Sound good? I've also given it a name change because it doesn't make sense anymore since it's evolution from the first few posts. Plus, since I talked about getting a better handle on my GERD diet - I figured I'd keep myself honest via FFF. Food labeled (GA is 'gerd approved' - food labeled NGA is not).

Now... let's get to it!

Friday Night Dinner: Tuna melts made with celery, capers, mustard, mayo, salt, & pepper served with baked sweet potato "fries". (GA except for the ketchup)

Breakfast: Green Smoothie - Green juice, SFH coconut protein powder, mangoes, 1 tsp almond butter,  and water topped with granola and coconut butter. (GA)

Meal Prep: Hash Brown Breakfast Bake This is so delicious and will be remade with either sweet potato zoodles or the Alexa version of sweet potato tater tots (will make it a bit healthier). (NGA)

Breakfast: Strawberry/Mango Smoothie made with the same coconut SFH fuel. (GA)

Meal prep for lunches: Salads, quinoa, and HB eggs. (Peppers not really GA but, I'm learning they don't really bother me at all in small amounts)

Lunch: Spinach, 1/3 cup of roasted chickpeas, cucumbers and Cindy's fig dressing. (GA)

Dinner: Trader Joe's veggie burger (sneaky delicious) with fried egg, avo, and roasted sweet potatoes. (GA)

Lunch: Spinach salad, chickpeas, avocado, and a tbs of hummus. Mix this all together and the hummus works as a dressing... AND IT'S DELICIOUS.  (GA)

Saturday AM Breakfast: Discovering that I can make delicious pancakes from protein powder is a total, friggin', game-changer. Message me or comment below for recipe. (GA)

Saturday post-workout lunch: GMO-free corn tortillas with hummus, roasted chickpeas, sauteed spinach, and avocado. (yes, this combo is delectable and yes I meal prepped roasted chickpeas last week :)) (GA except for all that crushed red pepper - whoops)

image.jpg

Sunday dinner: I meal prepped roasted chicken and sweet potatoes on Sunday night. Here it is served with a side of brown jasmine rice. (GA)

image.jpg

Post workout snack (every damn day): Hummus and carrots. (GA)

Dinner: Noodle bowl made with lots of ginger, a little garlic, and liquid aminos (or soy sauce). (GA besides peppers and the garlic)

*Please note: The GERD diet is tricky and since no two humans are alike, many people have different foods that make them symptomatic. That being said, most docs give a sheet of approved/not-approved foods and the notations I make above pretty much follow that. Go see your doc if you have symptoms, questions, concerns, etc. I'm just sharing my experience and meals, not a how-to guide. :)
