Transforming Tracey, Day 2

 Day 2 is off to a good start.  I did the 2 mile workout this morning.  I have the Walk At Home app and this is the workout I did:


Breakfast: 1 Medium Banana  and 1 Orgain Plant Based Chocolate Protein Shake.

Lunch: Veggie Soup (Cabbage, Roasted Sweet Potatoes, Frozen Multicolored Carrots, Frozen Green Beans, 1/4 head of Cabbage, 1 onion) and Chobani Greek Yogurt Black Cherry on the bottom.

Dinner:  Mexican Quinoa Sweet Potatoes  

This is my first time trying this recipe.  We enjoyed this recipe and I definitely think that it will be one to add to the rotation!

    1. Thank you! With the cooler mornings, it isn't always easy to get up but it's easier to get it done first thing than wait until later!

  2. I do well with exercise. I am consistent. My issue is my eating. Do you meal plan? I have been winging it. I simply must eat better.

    1. Meal Planning is definitely something I'm working more on for my whole family. I try to write out something on a steno pad and while it may change, it gives me some sort of guideline.

 S’mores Protein Bites Recipe You can find the original recipe  here  from Six Sisters' Stuff.  The one below is the way I prepared it. Ingredients 1½ cups Simple Truth Old Fashioned Oats ¼ cup crushed graham cracker crumbs ½ cup Simple Truth almond butter ½ cup raw honey ¼ cup vanilla protein powder (I used Orgain Vanilla Protein Powder) 1 teaspoon vanilla extract ½ cup mini marshmallows ¼ cup mini chocolate chips Instructions Combine all ingredients in a bowl or stand mixer until well combined. Roll dough into 1 inch balls and place on a baking sheet covered with foil or parchment paper. Place in the freezer for about 1 hour, then store in a resealable bag or airtight container in the fridge for up to a week (or in the freezer for up to a month). This original recipe says 15 servings.  I am not sure if I used a smaller scoop but I came out with 25 or so.  There were a couple that were smaller.

Meal Plan (and make a plan) Monday, April 27, 2025

Happy Monday, friends!  I hope you are looking forward to a good week!  It's time again to share my meal plan for the week.  I suspect breakfasts will be fend for ourselves.  Last week, I think we all ate a lot of cereal.  Lunches this week will likely be chicken salad and a pasta meal.  I, unfortunately, got hit with a round of vertigo at the end of last week that is wrecking havoc on my ability to move too much and it stinks.  I will be going back to what the allergy doctor suggested a couple of years ago...using my daily oral meds (Xyzal and Mucinex), as well as nasal rinse twice a day and nasal allergy spray.  While I know that vertigo for everyone isn't caused by the fluid in the ears, it seems to be for me most times when I've had it.  It's miserable when I can't even sit up without feeling nauseous. Anyway, for that reason, our meals for the week are going to be relatively easy and may even be repeats of meals I have had on the plan th...

TACO MEATBALLS   1 lb Ground Turkey 3 Tbsp Taco Seasoning 1 Tbsp. Ranch Seasoning 1/4 cup Green Onions (chopped) 1/4 cup Cheddar Cheese 2 Tsp Garlic Cloves 1.     Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line large baking sheet with unbleached parchment paper and spray with cooking spray.* 2.     In a large mixing bowl, add turkey, cheese, green onions, garlic, Taco and Ranch Seasoning and mix well using your hands. Form into 16 to 18 golf ball size meatballs (I use small ice cream scoop). 3.    Bake meatballs in for 15 minutes or until browned. Flip halfway through cooking time: This allows meatballs to brown on both sides, especially great if serving as an appetizer. Suggestions for serving: Serve hot with brown rice/quinoa, guacamole and pico de gallo. Or serve as an appetizer. We are going to serve as a Taco Bowl, with Spanish Cauliflower Rice and beans.
