For some reason I was compelled to buy grape tomatoes at TJ's last night. There were so many, they must have just gotten a shipment in. I don't even know what they taste like, honestly. I was gonna put them in my scrambled eggs... and then I found this recipe. It was meant to be, right?
There are so many ways to cook salmon, that's why I love it so much. You can have a completely different meal using the same fish and it's so quick and easy to make. Prepare, pop it in the oven and then go do laundry, hop in the shower, check PCF's blog, read an article about the paleo diet, whatever. So... pick some grape tomatoes up from TJ's and try this recipe out, I'm sure it's delish!
Roasted Curry Salmon with Tomatoes
1 pint grape tomatoes
1 tablespoon olive oil
kosher salt and black pepper
1 1 1/2-pound skinless salmon fillet
2 teaspoons curry powder
1/4 cup torn fresh basil
Heat oven to 400º F.
Meanwhile, on a rimmed baking sheet, toss the tomatoes, oil, and ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper.
Nestle the salmon among the tomatoes. Season with the curry powder, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Roast until opaque throughout, 15 to 18 minutes.
Sprinkle with the basil and serve!

No breakfast for me today! Just ate a burger bowl from The Counter, 1lb Beef with onions, bacon, avocado and balsamic dressing:)
liz:
breakfast: 2 slices bacon, 2 eggs scrambled with some onion and 1 c spinach
lunch: small salmon filet cooked at home with a chefs salad (lettuce, 1 egg, about 1T crumbled bacon and 2 slices avocado) at LAX.
dinner:....on the road again.... turkey patty from yardhouse w/ mustard and sweet potato fries. i asked them to bake them....not sure if that happened. but i was starving.
breakfast: 2 egg whites, 2 eggs, 1/2 apple, olive oil. Lunch: 1-1/2 turkey burger patties, 1 apple, 1 pear. Snack 1 turkey burger, 1 apple, 1/2 c almonds (estimated). Snack 2 oz chicken. I did the all-squat workout today. I felt solid with the movement and the weights. It was a really good workout.
For breakfast I had an apple and coffee, lunch was an omlette with spinach, mushrooms and avocado with a small side salad (topped with lemon juice). My pre-gym snack was a peach and a hard boiled egg (minus the yolk) then for dinner I had some leftover ground bison and roasted veggies then followed that with apple slices and almond butter for desert.
I'm still pretty much hungry all day long and waiting for the sugar withdrawal to end. I seriously didn't think I ate too many things with sugar and I had drastically reduced the amount of bread type foods in my diet over the past several months so I honestly didn't expect to have this much of a reaction to cutting out all bread and grains.
Boy was I mistaken! Because I have never felt this hungry, this often, ever and I'm eating like crazy so it's not from cutting back the amount of food I eat, just what I eat. It's pretty remarkable. The fact that my body is having this strong of a reaction to less than one week off of bread just makes me more glad to have taken on this challenge because it's very clear that it was needed.
Stick with it Julie! Be sure to check that CFJ article 21 and do some quick math to see if you are eating enough each day. Im not sure if there was another meal in, but my quick reaction is not enough protein in there. Or, it you put the general amounts of each that would help me better estimate!
I would love to know what everyone is doing for their challenge as far as personal rules: strict Paleo,strict Zone, etc. My advice would vary for each actually:)
Anywho, back to me: I had a late dinner right after lifting heavy at Baby Blues BBQ (love it) and had a half a rack of memphis style ribs and 10 grilled shrimp!
Breakfast: Spinach, SDT omelette with avacado, onion and bacon pieces.
Lunch: Spinach salad with 1 can of tuna, blueberries, apple pieces, onions and basalmic vinegar dressing.
Snack: Coconut milk parfait with blueberries and walnut.
Dinner: Salmon, asparagus, 1/2 a sweet potato and an orange.
Too much fruit today! Starting now I'm going to cut out more fruit. This challenge for me is all about cutting out excess sugar. Grains and gluten aren't a big deal anymore. After months of stomach problems from it, it's easy not to go back to them. It's like they don't exist anymore. But the Lara Bars and Dark Chocolate bars really sneak in there. And I LOVE to bake, so I tend to consume more sugar than I should. I need to remember that just because it has the work paleo in front of it doesn't always mean it's the healthiest choice. Paleo brownies are still brownies.
Sto: Breakfast: More beef & broccoli + 1 small apple + strawberries. Lunch: Still more beef & broccoli + 1 apple + 1 orange. Dinner: 2 burger patties + 2 cucumbers w/vinagre, strawberries & grapes. Normally would throw in another meal after karate, but felt like I was coming down with a head cold, so skipped karate and went to bed early.
