Cheating for Cupcakes
After 12 days of clean eating; I couldn’t decide on which flavor to indulge in. Needless to say; I tasted them all
Tasty Egg Bake
I used 2 ramekins sprayed with EVOO olive oil spray. Instead of using the entire egg, I opted for 3 egg whites and 1 egg yolk. I added sautéed onions, red, green, yellow peppers … Baby spinach leaves and sliced baby tomatoes. Seasoned with dry basil, cayenne pepper, paprika and 21 seasoning. Topped with Parmesan or cheddar cheese. Bake in 400 degree oven (place ramekins on baking sheet) for 20-25 minutes. Add other ingredients for variety. Be creative!
Just a salad
Nothing fancy today
The First Seven Days
A few of the meals from the 17 day diet. All prepared by me. You have to be extra creative when you eliminate most carbs and sugars. 9 days to go!
Salmon with roasted cauliflower and broccoli Day6
Skip the dressing
Roasted Cauliflower and Broccoli; Grilled chicken with Dijon mustard

Season chicken breast or chicken tenders with 21 seasoning blend from Trader Joe’s or any other blend (no salt) and grill on Panini Grill or George Foreman grill or similar 4-5 minutes. The vegetables can be marinated beforehand. Use 1 to 2 TBS of EVOO ( I use garlic EVOO) and the seasoning blend. Shake to mix in a plastic baggie. Cook in 400-450 degree oven for 15 minutes aprox. You can use pretty much any vegetable that you like. I suggest onions, brussels sprouts, green beans, peppers, zucchini. Use Dijon Mustard as a dipping sauce for the chicken. Because no salt is used, it gives the chicken enormous flavor.
