What's On Your Monday Menu, RNYers?
Hello all! I actually spent the weekend in PA, my home state. One of my nephews, Josh, passed away earlier in the week after a heroic battle with cancer. He was only 32 and left 3 children behind. He battled for 3 years... RIP. He was one of the kindest and funniest men I ever knew. We spent Saturday visiting and reminiscing. I have 5 sisters, scores of nieces and nephews, who all are having babies and even some of their babies have started! It is really hard to stay down when you are playing with a 2 year old! Honestly, it was really a beautiful weekend.
My menu today:
B: 1/2 egg sandwich, made with a half of an Arnold's Thin Multgrain Roll, 1/2 egg and a tad bit of butter
L: Strawberry Light and Fit 80 calorie greek yogurt and 1/4 cup of sliced strawberries (this was my 1st time with fruit)
D: 2 1/2 oz deli ham with mustard, 1/4 cup cucumbers with 3 cheese ranch dressing
S: Chocolate Protein Shake with 1 Cup of 1% Milk
Calories: 746, Protein 69 Grams, Carbs: 74 Grams (ohhh, that's not good).
So sorry about your nephew, that is so sad... but glad the little ones kept things going.

Thanks!
Recipe -
6 oz of whatever kind of milk you like, I just started using Fairlife skim milk
1 teaspoon SF/FF butterscotch pudding mix
1 TB PB2
1 scoop vanilla protein powder (I find this too sweet so I've been doing 1/2 unflavored and 1/2 vanilla Unjury)
Add ice and blend - it really tastes like a butterfinger to me and it's SO good
Triple zero greek yogurt is Dannon brand - 0 added sugar, 0 artificial sweetener, 0 fat (I think that's the last 0) It comes in strawberry, vanilla, coconut creme and banana creme. DH works for Dannon so in general I only eat Dannon yogurt.

Thanks! I don't think I've ever notice the Dannon, no added sugar and no artificial sweeteners? will have to look for it.

I used to love dioramas when I was a kid, I remember doing one on the Legend of Sleepy Hollow with the headless horseman running through it...hahahaha... And Costco is awesome on Friday afternoons at lunch time, they have more samples on the weekend and I guess they consider Friday the pre-game show....
