Trust you're all fantastic😁. So who doesn't love bread? I am unashamedly a bread lover even with my change to eating healthier it's been a huge battle to leave it out of my food🙈. But alas from the day we started the 7 day challenge I have stayed off bread until yesterday when I had 1 slice with homemade peanut butter and unsalted butter. Oooooooh did it feel good. Now as I have lost some weight I felt I needed the reward( uh huh make myself feel good abi and be justifying the bread eating; mega eye rolling)
So this morning I had my veggie wheat pasta mix with was yummy and then at 11am I started dreaming of bread and I'm like oh boy this is not good at allllllllll🙈. Now whenever I have a craving I try and resist and sometimes succeed for up to a week and then I'm like ok give in but donut sensibly😁😁😁💃
So how do you eat bread healthy? There are many options; you can bake your own bread with the variety of healthier flours out there(bread making is still the one thing I haven't gotten around to doing cause the process just seems sooooo long and this is coming from someone who's mum used to bake bread! Shameful! 😁)
You can also eat something healthy with the bread; home made peanut butter, a salad, boneless chicken breasts grilled or pan fried, lean cuts of meat if you're a meat lover, eggs boiled, poached or fried with vegetables, the options are endless.
I made a salad with rocket, lettuce, spring onions, carrots, cabbage, parsley, basil, almonds, goji berries, toasted sesame seeds and today I also made a dressing which had half a tablespoon each of fresh orange juice, sesame oil, coconut oil, black pepper to taste, pink Himalayan salt, ground dried yellow pepper and honey.
Might not do bread again in a while but this sure hit the spot😁😁😁💃💃💃
Enjoy a blessings filled week ahead.
Errrrrr did I forget to say that I grated a bit of ginger and garlic into the dressing?
