Phase Two Day One

Today marked the beginning of phase two - lunches.

Honestly, it went well! With the green smoothie recipe on the back burner, I was able to muddle through the day with little cavewoman thinking. I had an idea about what I wanted to try for breakfast, and figured a smoothie for lunch would be an easy fix until I find good lunch recipes. I seem to have a lot of dinners...not a lot of lunches.

For breakfast today I had bacon & egg cups (recipe below)! So good! Followed by a smoothie for lunch. So far, I haven't been all that hungry today, and I feel like I've packed my body with vitamins and minerals, so I'm feeling good.

Reflecting over the last week, I feel I've gathered some bits of knowledge that I thought I'd share:

1. A little planning ahead of time can go a long way
2. Don't sacrifice your health for what's on sale
3. Listen to your body, it'll tell you when it needs fuel

Just a little food for thought. Now, on to the bacon and egg cup recipe!

Bacon and Egg Cups
For two cups, you'll need:

• Two eggs
• Three strips of bacon
• A muffin tin

Fry the bacon slightly, just as it starts to brown (about two or three minutes). Dabble some of the grease along the bottom and sides of two cups of the muffin tin, then line it with the bacon. I cut mine into half strips to make it a lot easier. Be sure to put some on the bottom! Crack an egg on top of the bacon. Bake in oven at 400, for about 15 minutes.
