How did dinner go?  Mine was very messy, but delicious.  It was different, I enjoyed it a lot.  Eat your leftovers for lunch today.

Today’s breakfast:

Make ’em Green with Envy

Boil the broccoli to semi-cook it. Chop garlic and slice green onions, finely. Sauté in frying pan. Add sliced mushrooms, cook until soft. Whisk the egg whites. Add spinach and broccoli to the pan. Cover with egg whites and cook. Slice avocado and place on top.

Simple and yummy.

I’m a 36 year old kid at heart. I reached a low point in my life where I felt like I needed to take control before I didn’t have the choice, and that’s when I decided that I needed to change my lifestyle. It’s going to be my life long goal to always achieve optimum health…I am still young after all. Here I am, over one year into my Paleo journey, and I never felt better.
