Happy Monday!!

Happy Monday to you! 

I started off my Monday by taking my two older (not so) tiny humans to school, and then shopping in Wegmans in the dark. Surprisingly fun, yet a bit frustrating because a lot of produce, like lettuces and greens, dairy, and meat products weren't available. I was able to get a few of the pantry items I needed, but not enough of the others to start the 3 day fix. So today I went back to the regular 21 Day Fix, and let's just say, I'm not disappointed.

For breakfast I had steel cut oats (1 yellow) with cinnamon, and 4 slices of turkey bacon (1 red). Let me just say, steel cut oats take F O R E V E RRRR to cook! I quickly found a few recipes for overnight oats, one of which I will be trying tonight, and I'll get back to you soon on that. 

For lunch, I went with a veggie burger (1 red), topped with feta cheese (1/2 blue) and a cucumber dill yogurt topping. A simple green salad (1 1/2 green) on the side with the 21 Day Fix Dijon Mustard Vinaigrette dressing (1/2 orange). The best part was the simple heat from the dressing finding it's way on to my veggie burger and complimenting the coolness and tang of the Greek yogurt topping. I feel completely satisfied after those two meals! There's no reason your healthy lifestyle can't be a delicious one!!

Try it, and let me know what you think!
