I had carb craving’s ALL day long and then did a terrible job of getting in my veggies. Not the best Food Plan Day, but I will say that dinner was easy and delicious! A salad for lunch would have been a much smarter option!
I had a nice quiet morning cuddled up with these two. Tucker can’t stand for Charlotte to be too close to me without him being right there beside me too! I can’t tell if he’s just in love with her, or jealous! ! After the nap, we got in an awesome 1 hour walk outside.
Breakfast
I almost always have protein for breakfast, but I was going for variety here…

“love the life you live, live the life you love”
I can’t remember where I bought the balsamic. I think I bought it at Target, in the salad dressing aisle. But I was just at my neighborhood grocery store, so I looked for it. I found two products that looked like the exact same thing. It’s a balsamic reduction, and it’s nice and thick, and a little goes a lonnnnngggg way. 🙂 I think you should be able to find it in your salad dressing aisle.
The goat cheese I bought also at my neighborhood grocery store with the specialty cheeses. I’m sure any goat cheese would work great, but this was soft, like cream cheese, and 1 T. packed a LOT of flavor!!
I don’t feel like I was super helpful there, but I hope you are able to find those item’s, because they tasted SO darned good with that quinoa and chicken!!
Where can I buy the 2 things that made your dinner so yummy?!?!? Thanks!!
Thanks so much!!
🙂
