Breakfast:  small smoothie.  This eating the smoothie at 6:30 am (so early!)  is working out really well.  I think I have more energy during my workout and bike ride home.  And then I am nice and hungry at lunch.  I just have to make sure to not eat dinner too late, but that is a good thing to do anyway.

Lunch: red beans and rice.  I decided that rice mixture I made yesterday was good for this--gave us some healthy kale and the apricot adds flavor to the red beans, as I was discussing yesterday.  Also had my favorite apple-lettuce salad.  I decided the orange is better left out for dessert.  And the D'Angou pear vinegar is still the best by far compared to others I've tried.  yummy.

Dinner:  baked sweet potato (then mashed) and beet with steamed cauliflower and zucchini.   I never baked a beet before.  it probably needed more time or to be cut in half.  But it was still good.   no seasonings.  everything was good as is.
Dessert:  orange, which was ao good, I had another.  Our co-op gets these great organic valencia oranges.  they are fairly small almost always good and juicy, unlike those dry navel oranges from California.
