Pale-WOE

So yesterday was my 3rd day on Paleo and I felt like I ran 2 back to back marathons and then got hit by a bus. It was CRAZY. 

After consulting some blogs and texting with Trainer Dan – I upped my healthy fats and veggie carbs as well as added salt to some of my water.

I’m happy to report I feel MUCH better today.

I’m still battling a bit of a cold and sore legs from working out hard this weekend/racing but yesterday was unlike any feeling I’ve ever had. 

In even better news tonight I get to host the lovely RunningBeautiful at my apartment!

Merzi – The Indian “chipotle”

So I’ve featured Medi which is the Mediterranean “chipotle” and I’ve also become a fan of Merzi, but they are not related companies

Merzi is near where I play cornhole so on Tuesday I headed into DC early and stopped for some.

Base: Chaat – Veggie base with chick peas, potatoes, onions and red bell peppers

Protein:  Grilled chicken

Sauces: Creamy Tikka Masala and Cilantro Mint Chutney 

Toppings: Cucumber salad, corn and onions

YUMMERS

Sandwich MacGyver

I MacGyvered the hell out of a sandwich tonight! I only had a hot minute to grab something at home to eat before jumping on the metro to get to my corn hole league tonight.

Without thinking it through I grabbed a Flat Out pita, nuked 3 falafel balls, cut said falafel, spread Greek yogurt on the pita, added onion and garlic powder as well as dill, topped with sprouts, carrots, salt and pepper.

Devoured while speed walking to the metro – it was YUMMY and completely spontaneous. Now I won’t be tempted to order any bar food!
