Breakfast: Whole Grain Os with skim milk. They look like Cheerios, but not as cheery. I do have Sweetened Os in the box, so maybe that will be the Cheerios taste I was expecting. Decent serving but a little lacking in taste. I can survive. I added an egg for protein and added my fruit serving, a banana, to my cereal. That really helped the taste.
Lunch: I was happy about this selection-Tuna Salad. I love love love tuna salad. I make great tuna salad and I haven't come across absolutely inedible tuna salad. I still haven't. Granted in terms of looking like the package we have a fail. It didn't look too appealing; it was another pouch of goop like the chicken salad. I never make mine like that, I only use enough Miracle Whip to coat it and I add celery, sometimes onion if I have it. Despite how it looked it tasted like a solid good tuna salad. It even had onions in it, sadly no celery. And no relish kick to it. So I did add a pickle (sandwich stacker LOVE those) to the sandwich (using the same light wheat as before), along with a romaine leaf and slices of tomato and a sprinkling of broccoli slaw for crunch. Don't know what broccoli slaw is? Find it, try it and you won't go back to that other kind of bagged cole slaw mix again. I don't even use it as a slaw mix exclusively. As I said I put it in a sandwich, I would mix it in a salad, I've even mixed it in with rice. Yum. I'm not so much into mayo, so when I make the slaw mix I use Miracle Whip, just enough to coat, and I add diced apple. Let it sit in the fridge for a bit and nom nom nom. Along with my tasty sammy I had a yogurt for dairy but I had a brain fart. By the time I remembered it was a second veggie serving I needed (the broccoli, tomato, lettuce and pickle all counted as one) I was already enjoying 5 fresh sliced strawberries.
Midafternoon Snack: I chose protein and had 1 ounce of turkey breast, which was about a slice and a half. I have a digital postage scale that I use to weigh food sometimes. No unitaskers in my kitchen. My fruit was a D'Anjou pear. Next time I have one, I may eat half. They are very big and I'm eating the snack really because the plan says to, not because I am hungry.
Dinner: The entree of the night was Sweet and Sour Chicken with noodles. I love sweet and sour sauce. First we have visual fail. I open the package and all I see is sauce with stuff in it. On the package you clearly see chicken. I wasn't quite sure what was what at first. What in the hell are they taking pictures of? I know why they don't look like what they really look like-no one would buy it. So unfair to desperate people. In addition to visual fail we have the most epic taste fail to date. I didn't even finish it. It had sweet and sour taste, but the chicken was super puny and the noodles were laughable. Actually the chicken was too. Even the DH wouldn't taste it, and he'd taste just about anything. Thankfully I had the salad. I forgot about my fat serving though. Oh well, it's not like those almonds were missed. Once again, eaten because it says to and it's the only thing on the fat list I'd eat.
