DAY 4: New Year- New You!

With the headache finally gone, my energy levels are through the roof!
Especially in the morning!
For those still suffering from the Elimination Diet I set you, there is a light at the end of the tunnel....and its a very nice light too! So keep it up!
Here's my breakfast this morning:

Huevos Rancheros (serves 2 or three)
Ingredients
6 fresh eggs
2 green onions, chopped, including the green parts
1 fresh tomato, peeled and chopped
One jalapeño pepper, sliced (optional!)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh oregano leaves
six shakes of sea salt
1 tablespoon oregano, chopped
Directions
Heat oil in a large frying pan on medium heat. Add the onions and brown for a minute
or two. Add the chopped tomato and let cook for a few minutes on medium high heat
until the tomatoes are somewhat cooked and mushy and some of the moisture has
evaporated. Add the oregano, and, if you're using one, the jalapeño pepper. Crack
eggs directly into the pan with the cooking sauce. Add salt and stir with a spatula to
mix in the sauce and to scramble the eggs. Remove from heat when the eggs cook to
the desired consistency. Remove the mixture from the pan and put into a serving
bowl. Sprinkle with oregano.


Lunch is going to be sweet potatoes, with chicken breast and vegetables. I'll be snacking on a banana, apple and almonds through the day. Tonight I've got some thick vegetable soup for dinner...yummy!

Training: Heavy push day, with Kettlebell military presses, Dumbell chest press, some squats, and heavy dips for triceps.
Phew! ...oh and my Kettlebell class this evening!
