Day Three and Delicious Burritos

Menu:
breakfast:  oatmeal
snack:  piece of whole wheat toast with margarine and cup of milk
lunch:  big salad, hard-boiled egg, some almonds and craisins, some carrot ginger soup, a pita with sweet potato, black beans, cheese and spinach (note:  this lunch occurred over the course of like 4 hours- should have maybe classified some of these as snacks)
snack:  piece of key lime pie (not on the plan)
dinner:  yummy burritos with homemade tortillas, homemade salsa, corn, cheese, spinach and the black bean and sweet potato mix I made earlier in the week
snack:  2 small pieces of cake at book club

Ellia's menu:
breakfast:  oatmeal- she ate a good amount of it today and milk
snack:  some bites of my toast and half an orange (refused raw veggies)
lunch:  almost two hard boiled eggs, few more bites of bread, some carrot ginger soup, cup of milk
snack:  carrots and some pretzels (refused frozen peas) and cup of juice
dinner:  very few bites of salsa and corn- hardly anything.  cup of milk
dinner 2:  half piece of bread with a goat cheese spread on it

Today was hard diet-wise.  I was so hungry all day and realllly just wanted to eat junk.  I think I did ok, but I still felt like I was eating all day and was never full.  Probably should have had something healthy instead of the key lime pie.  I feel like I need more health food options - or at least my brain thinks that, probably not true, I just don't want to eat healthy.

Anyway, onto tonight's dinner recipes.  Tonight's recipes come from our neighbor Kelsey and both were delish.


Tortillas
2 and 2/3 cup flour (we used whole wheat)
1 and 1/4 cup hot water
3 tbsp oil
1 tsp salt
2 tsp baking powder

Salsa
dozen small tomatoes
1/2 red onion
1/2 bunch green onion
1/2 can green chilis

El Pato (optional)
