Happy WIAW! I had a happy Tuesday. Not only was it filled with extra kitty snuggles and yummy food, I also had new leg press PR. Woohoo! I’m already sore today, and I’m sure it’s only going to get worse. That’s okay though; each agonizing step just reminds me of how hard I worked.
Thanks Jen for hosting another WIAW linkup party. I guess it’s time for me to dive right into the eats!
Pre-Gym: rice cake with rocket fuel (aka: peanut butter)
Post- Gym: parfait with organic TJs cereal, organic TJs Greek yogurt, and a beautiful Harry & David plum
Snack: a small handful of raw almonds
Lunch: 3 oz chicken breast cooked in olive oil with cauliflower, peas, curry, and a shake of ginger (prepped Monday)
Snack: pumpkin protein bars (with oat flour and walnuts – prepped Sunday)
Snack (again): my hungry self snagged a handful or two of Kev’s chips when I got home
Dinner: turkey chili (I ate more than I meant to, but it was worth it! Side note, I recommend the recipe, but I had to add hot sauce to mine. It’s tasty but weak.)
Between the curry lunch, chili dinner, and pumpkin spiced snack, that’s a lotta’ spices! K, enough procrastinating… I’m off for my walk and some light yoga.
- How do you like your chili? Extra spicy? With cheese?

I’m a huge wimp when it comes to spicy entrees. I can really only handle mild

Awww, those plums look beautiful. I just bought a batch yesterday and they are already quite delish!

My husband makes our chili and he has a secret ingredient that makes it sweet and yummy! Brown sugar!

Me and spicy food don’t do that well – stomach hates it. I keep things pretty mild, but cheese is definitely a necessity!

Congrats on your PR. Always a great way to begin the week
I like spicy food, but i’m with Amanda above, I just don’t think it would agree with my stomach. My favorite spicy food would be either queso or a bowl of chipotle though! Your chili looks delicious!

I am a massive wimp and only like a teeny bit of chilli in spicy foods!

Congrats on your leg press pr! I’ve grown to appreciate spicy food more over the years… looks like a delicious day of eats!

Love all the spices! Besides being so good for you, they add so much to a dish! I love that you say peanut butter is rocket fuel.

Chili MUST have cheese! And I like it mild.

I love my chili with cheese, sour cream, diced onions, & cilantro. The more toppings the better. I haven’t had all those topping in a long time though. Trying to eat healthier means bye bye to most those toppings.
