This week for meatless Monday it was easier than last week in terms of finding things to eat and actually eating.

 

For breakfast I had a bowl of Fruit Loops with a protein shake.

For lunch I had a fruit salad comprised of apples grapes and oranges. it was very good and was the first time I had a fruit salad in a long time. After I ate that I finished my penne with broccoli from last week. It was still really good.

Then for dinner I wasn't really sure what I wanted to eat because i was at work so I had a small bowl of beans and greens soup to hold me over while I thought about what I wanted. when I finally made my mind up I went with stuffed banana peppers that were cooked in a wood fire oven. the picture is before I put them in. I put a little olive oil on top and added some diced tomatoes. They were a nice change of paced from always eating pasta.

 

Doing meatless Mondays was definitely a experience. The hardest part was the first couple weeks trying to adjust myself to not eat meat and then actually doing it when most of my meals have some type of meat in it as the main portion. Hopefully I can either keep this going or try and get my mom and other people to at least try it and see what they think of it and explain why they would be doing it.
