Breakfast: PB&J Oatmeal. Mixed in Strawberry Sugar Free Torani Syrup and Chike PB Powdered Peanut Butter (1 Tablespoon of each) and topped it with a teaspoon of SF Strawberry Jam (Reminded me of those Oatmeal Swirlers from the 80's, remember those?) This tasted just like a Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich.
Need some more protein add a few Tablespoons of protein powder and mix it in. Mmm Chike Strawberry Burst or Celebrate Strawberry ENS would be great mixed in or if you normally do a splash of milk in your oats instead of milk use a Premier Protein Strawberry and Cream Ready-to-drink Protein Shakes.
Made too much oatmeal? Make these Frozen Oatmeal Discs.
Lunch: Leftovers. Had a few things that needed using up so I filled my bento box with a mish mash of stuff and made a Greek yogurt dip (because I dip everything.) All was super tasty and packed with protein.

Dinner: I went to the Fallbrook Avocado Festival this weekend (it's tradition) and bought a few avocados that finally were perfect for guacamole making. Shrimp are way better than chips for dipping...
Snacks: Lots of coffee and Apple Nachos, my snack as I watched American Idol results. A great dessert but I have even had it for breakfast on occasion. Sliced Apple (I love Honeycrisp, Pink Lady or Fuji) with a variety of toppings. Totally kid friendly too. They can assemble their own "Nacho" masterpiece.
Greek Yogurt sweetened with Sugar Free Syrup (any flavor)
Chopped up Protein Bar
Nuts
Toasted Unsweetened Coconut
Unsweetened Cocoa
Powdered Peanut Butter
Looking back at the day I realized I ate two meals that traditionally would be laden with chips: guacamole & chips and nachos and not a chip was eaten. Didn't miss them either.
