Meat Hoarding or Whole30 Part Two

Life has been crazy lately ( like it is for most people). My stress levels have been skyrocketing. About two weeks ago I realized I have not been taking as good of care of myself as I should be.

Starting today I will be starting another Whole30.  I need to kick the couple of bad habits that have been creeping back into my life ( coffee in the afternoon, chocolate while Marie is "napping", ciders on a bad OR good day, etc...). The nice thing is that this time around it will be easy. I know what to buy and not to buy, I have most things I need in my pantry or freezer already, and withdrawal symptoms should not be too bad as I have been eating pretty healthy 90% of the time. 

This morning I am starting the day with my favorite Sweet Potato Hash with Pecans and some fried eggs. I have some homemade chicken soup defrosting as I feel a cold coming on, and we will eat leftover brats with vegetables for dinner. I will be defrosting a chicken to throw into the crockpot tomorrow, and viola!, I have protein for a couple meals and more soup broth. Wednesday I will be receiving our vegetable share from our CSA and we will be set for vegetables. Easy peasy!

While preparing for my next Whole30, I made a list of all the protein we had in our house. I was amazed at how much meat I found in our two freezers! There are even 2 pounds of hamburger in our chest freezer, but I didn't count that because I don't eat it. Hi, my name is Kari, and I am a meat hoarder.

No one stole our food, I am just preparing the refrigerator for fresh vegetables, fruit and meat defrosting!
