Breakfast: Shelly's Indiana Corn & Sausage Bites leftovers. Love these little suckers. They are basically crustless quiches. Fine up to 3 days in the fridge or you can freeze them and defrost as needed. Reheat in oven. Great breakfast on-to-go, lunch with a scoop of one of my bean salads, or party appetizer. Perfect way to use leftovers up... anything can turn into a bite.
Here's a link to a ton of my Bite recipes.
Lunch: Packed my super cool bento box and watched the waves of the mighty Pacific crash. Storm was moving in so it was cool and angry looking. I need to do this more often. Totally rejuvenates me.

1/2 a Hothouse Cucumber, diced
1 stalk of Celery, sliced

Whiz lox in a mini food processor till coarsely chopped.

Dinner: Shelly's Asian Lettuce Cups - A go-to dinner when I want something quick & easy. The only change from the original recipe was I only had 2 green onions so I sauteed 1/2 a yellow onion and tossed that in.
Snacks: Finished the stuff in my Bento Box (pictured above), Shelly's Protein Parfait and too much Coffee.
Shelly's Protein ParfaitLayer 1: Sugar-Free Whipped Cream
Layer 2: Sugar-Free Strawberry Topping (Smuckers, frozen defrosted strawberries would be great too)
Layer 3: Sugar-Free Strawberry Protein Pudding (Vanilla Pudding w/ Strawberry Protein Powder and 2 drops of red food coloring mixed in)
Layer 4: Sugar-Free Chocolate Protein Pudding (Chocolate Pudding w/ Chocolate Protein Powder mixed in)
I mix about 2 tablespoons of protein powder into 1/4 cup pudding.
