It's NOT dog food or Days 6, 7, and 8
The last few days, eating wise, have not been exciting. I’ve been eating lots of salads and leftovers. We ate at Eat ‘n Park last night, where I had a veggie burger and onion rings.
On Sunday, I did make one new recipe, which is the Vegetarian Swiss steak. This is a seitan based food with tomato sauce, onions, peppers. I did not have any green peppers, so I didn’t use, but I think it would have benefitted from them. I also left out the mushrooms. I am the one vegetarian in the world who does not like mushrooms. 
I get asked that all the time “How can you be vegetarian and not like mushrooms?” Um, us vegetarians like LOTS of things. I don’t like broccoli, cauliflower or uncooked carrots either. Or pears or grapefruit. If this makes me weirder, so be it. 
Sorry, off on a tangent there ….
Here is how the Swiss steak looked right out of the oven.
- It’s not dog food!
And here it is on my plate:
looking a little less dog foody.
But I promise … it was tasty and the recipe makes a lot and I ate this for four days and now I am tired of it! But it is a great source of clean protein and very low carb.
And here is a photo of the Roasted Red Pepper Soup which is less digusting looking. I didn’t want to leave you with that other image in your memory.
On another note, exercise has been a little more exciting to report on. I finally feel better and on Sunday, I worked out for the first time in a long time. I ellipticalled for 30 minutes … which caused me to have a mini-migraine. On Monday, it was full blown migraine, so I only did my PT … and Monday is the day that I go to the facility, so it was a long session. Yesterday, I cleaned up around the house and I did a cardio/ab workout followed by my at-home PT.
I’m excited about exercising again, and interested to see what my hip will and won’t permit me to do.
That’s all really for now!
