This weekend sure was interesting. At least on the Paleo front that is. I managed to completely F Up on Saturday. I don't recall what breakfast was (was there breakfast?) and Lunch was definitely not good. Turkey sub from Jimmy Johns? And did I mention the fam and I had pizza for dinner?! So let's just say weekends are my weakness.
Sunday I believe breakfast was a leftover slice of pizza. Man I feel like I'm in college. But even in college I ate better than this. Maybe that's because in college there is a chef there to cook for you?
I despise cooking for one. And since I can't get a date, I won't be cooking for more than one for quite some time. When I do cook, I like to cook in "bulk" so that I don't have to cook every meal of everyday that day. So last night I made chicken and chick peas (I don't think those are Paleo since they are really beans?) and had some amazing lettuce to go with it. It seemed to fill me up but OMG it just seemed ugh BLAH. I mean it wasn't terrible, but I kept telling myself I need to learn new things to cook because if I was going to have a salad everyday I was going to go insane.
Then I realized that even if I had more fun stuff in my cupboards, I wouldn't know what to do with it. I'm not too original when it comes to cooking, I prefer to follow a recipe. Yet every recipe has something I don't like in it.
So in trying to be a better Paleo eating person I'm researching meals. Sadly I'm not finding many I like. My friend Sarah once told me that picky eating needs to get put to rest. It isn't always about flavor, but function. And to be honest, she's 100% right and odds are if I stop worrying about textures and how they gross me out, maybe I'll start actually liking the things I think I don't like.
