Did I say I ran the Army 10-miler? My mistake... Seth and I ran the 10-miler! While he's not much of a long distance runner (was a pole vaulter/sprinter in college), he completely shocked me!! I can't believe how well he did! If I ran 10 miles without training I would be on crutches!
Post-race sweatiness
We fueled ourselves with His and Her Breakfast cookies (2 hours before the race)
I cooked a lil bit....

I cooked a lil bit....
Guilt-free Chicken Enchiladas (recipe)
(1/2 reg, 1/2 dairy-free)
This time I used low-carb wheat wraps. They were perfect!
Leftover enchilada filling makes the perfect Chicken Taco Salad...
(Topped with homemade guac and FF Greek yogurt)
Baked Italian-style cod (super healthy 'bread' topping)
This time I coated the fish in 3/4 can diced tomatoes, garlic powder, basil, oregano, s/p
Then added the topping (this time using sun-dried tomatoes over regular) & baked for 25 mins at 375F

Have you ever worked overnight shifts?
What's the best (or worst) thing you recently ate?
What dish should I "health-ify" next?









Congrats on the race, girl! I've never worked O/N shifts intentionally, but I have pulled all-nighters in the lab for experiments. not fun!
ReplyDeleteAlso, even though I've been veg for a year now, that enchilada chicken salad looks amaaaazing :)
Congrats on the race! Your chicken enchilada salad has my stomach growling right now ;)

Wow I can't imagine running that distance period, let alone not training for it! Your food looks quite delicious. I have never done overnight shifts and the best thing that I ate recently was... probably the oatmeal I've been eating every day of my life haha Nothing like a bowl of oatmeal to warm my soul
ReplyDelete@eatmybeets.com Amen! I eat it almost every day in the winter :)
ReplyDeleteEVERYTHING in this post looks so delicious! I've seen breakfast cookies on lots of blogs, but never have they excited me...until tonight! I am *so* making a "hers" version (may swap AB for PB though). Thanks for the recipe! And I love me some enchiladas. I've actually been experimenting with dairy free cheeses and am actually beginning to enjoy them. Have you tried Tofutti cream cheese? I was surprised how "real" it tastes!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on beginning a new chapter in your life! I can't wait to hear about everything you've been up to when we meet for dinner! xoxo
Yum, the fish dish looks delic! We have some swordfish that needs to be eaten, think it would be an alright alternative to cod?!
ReplyDeleteI'm starting to have to deal with some super early morning/late night working, but thankfully I haven't had to work overnight yet. Knock on wood.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, this is one of my first times reading your blog and I love it! I will definitely be stealing recipe ideas...
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!
