Made the Vegan Caesar dressing which was amazing (I doubled the recipe which was a good thing because you could literally drink it). I also made the green smoothie with lacinato kale, coconut water (harmless harvest), frozen pineapple, ginger, lime, avocado and cucumber. It was delicious. I was stressed when I made it a 2nd time and was out of limes but I improvised and used what I had (lemon) and it was equally as delicious. So refreshing. Thanks Marti!

After craving (and eating) an entire bag of potato chips yesterday following a very long power walk (maybe I was dehydrated), I set an intention today to incorporate more salads into my eating plan this week. Today I made a lacinato kale salad, and just added some roasted carrots and raw radishes. Sometimes I get lazy with salads because I don’t know what dressing to make with it, but for this salad I kept it simple (I just massaged the kale with a little olive oil, fresh lemon juice 🍋 and 1/4 of an avocado 🥑 ) which made a really nice simple dressing for the salad. I am going to make an effort to wash and prep salad greens (especially hearty ones like kale) right when I get them from the market so they are accessible and easy to use. Felt good to eat a delicious salad for lunch after my potato chip craving yesterday. The bright side is the chips were made with avocado oil and I just went with the craving and tried not to dwell on it or feel guilty about it. Hope everyone had a nice weekend!

Hope you are feeling better today!
