I have tried 5 times recently to make crispy sweet potato fries and I ruined them every time so today I tried something else: plantains. I made tostones fried in lard and YUM. Next time I'll keep the heat a little lower and make them thinner.

mmmm had a really yummy brekkie today..
pesto mushrooms, asparagus, 2 poached eggs on a slice of sour dough. It was so filling I could only eat half.

alligator tail with steamed broccoli
whole grain chips and salsa (no no's see confessions post)

Don't think I could, the melting point is so low! You know, for a while I was making adobo bistec so much that I got sick of it and just recently I started craving it again.
As for fried lard at state fairs, I saw fried butter once and turns out it was more like breading fried in butter, not an actual stick of fried butter. Omg now I want a good ole deep-fried oreo.

Today I had:
• a cup of black coffee
• a 2 egg omelet with sauteed green beans and mushrooms, all cooked in butter
• tostones fried in ghee
• a coconut water
• a mango

Curry rice w veggies
Raw coconut oil lime tart

I threw a bunch of leftovers together into a makeshift shepherd's pie.....
Leftover turkey loaf (ground into crumbles), layered with leftover frozen mixed vegetables, then I boiled some leftover red potatoes, mashed them with butter, salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper and put that on top. It's baking in the oven now![]()

I ate like crap yesterday though!
After the curry rice I had some vegan bunt cake, sweet potato w chocolate chips, and leftover pad Thai.





Today I was a behemoth. I went to the movies so there was soda, popcorn, milk duds, nestle crunch, m&m's..... On the bright side though I got on my friend's scale and am over 10lbs lighter than the last time I got on it.

Congrats BOTM!
I picked up a cheapo rice maker ("Aroma" is the brand name) from Target last week and it also works as a food steamer. You can steam veggies, fish, etc. It cooks the rice decently but I was reeeeally happy with how my broccoli and cauliflower turned out. You can sprinkle just a little bit of sea salt on them and they taste wonderful with zero oil. I'm gonna try out sweet potatoes tomorrow since it's the only food I microwave and it would be nice to not nuke 'em since I eat so many.
So far today I made banana soft serve (three frozen bananas in the food processor, add vanilla bean + cacao) and it tasted like a jack n the box milkshake.
Over the weekend I plan to experiment with less fruit (bananas, pineapple and watermelon especially are out) and more green juice, steamed veggies, seaweed, and rice. I love fruit but I feel I have better concentration when I keep it low glycemic.





3 bananas
1/2 small roast chicken



Breakfast: bowl of cereal
Lunch: two bananas and some strawberries
Dinner: Taco salad
