I am enjoying making up my own recipes that follow the Cinch plan. Although, I had to modify the plan slightly since I was eating dinner at my in-laws.
BREAKFAST (8:30 am)
Fruity Waffle Sundae:
1 cup frozen Trader Joe's Very Berry Cherry Blend (cherries, blackberries, blueberries, and raspberries), thawed
1 Van’s brand whole grain waffle
¼ cup part-skim ricotta cheese
2 TBSP chopped pistachios
Dash Vietnamese cinnamon
LUNCH (1:30 pm)
Cran-Broccoli Chicken Pecan Wrap:
1 cup shredded broccoli slaw plus ¼ cup dried cranberries sweetened with apple juice
1 whole grain tortilla wrap
3 oz. cooked chicken breast
2 TBSP chopped pecans
Dash balsamic vinegar, dried mustard, garlic powder
I know that in the book you’re supposed to have fruit at breakfast and snack, and then vegetables at lunch and dinner, but in search of new recipes, I sometimes combine fruit and vegetables in the right portions. And this wrap was awesome!
I had my daily dark chocolate right after lunch.
SNACK (4:30 pm)
Apple pie lara bar
DINNER (7:00 pm)
8 steamed asparagus spears
1/2 cup sweet potato
3 oz. pork tenderloin
¼ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips after dinner
Dash pepper on asparagus spears
And I had 2 glasses of Chardonnay, which is not allowed on the plan, but I rarely drink alcohol anymore, so I will not beat myself up about it.
Ooh - the Cran-Broccoli Chicken Pecan Wrap sounds so good! Definitely going to try that one.
ReplyDeleteIt was so delicious! The pecans were the star in this recipe. I might have to add this lunch into my regular rotation.
ReplyDeleteWine is mandatory with the inlaws.
