Daily Recap: Tuesday, May 28

So, today wasn't as successful as I'd hoped it would be. Mainly because I didn't get my workout in! But I'm determined to get it in tomorrow... #CrossFitFail

As far as diet goes...today was Paleo all the way! (Minus the two glasses of Sauvignon Blanc...)

Breakfast:  2 eggs

Mid-morning snack:  Cantaloupe, melon and watermelon

Lunch: Veggie salad with grilled chicken tossed in olive oil and lemon juice

Afternoon snack: Mixed nuts (no peanuts)

Dinner: Shrimp-Stuffed Avocados*, Baked Tomatoes* and baked broccolini

*These recipes were pulled from The Paleo Diet book

Shrimp-Stuffed Avocados
4 large avocados, peeled and halved, seeds removed
1-1/2 c small salad shrimp, cooked and washed
1 T lemon juice
1 T onion powder
1 tsp black pepper
1 T paprika

Set avocado on serving plate with cut side facing up. Combine shrimp, lemon juice, onion powder and pepper in medium-size mixing bowl. Spoon shrimp mixture onto each avocado, covering generously. Sprinkle top of each stuffed avocado with paprika before mixing.

Baked Tomatoes
2 large tomatoes
1/2 c minced mushrooms
1 tsp chopped parsley
1 clove garlic, minced
1 scallion, chopped
1 tsp finely chopped fresh basil
1/2 tsp thyme
1/4 c olive oil

Slice tomatoes in half, scoop out most of the pulp and set in medium-size baking dish. Combine pulp with remaining ingredients and fill each tomato half. Bake at 375 degrees for 10-15 minutes.
