A New Idea

So, obviously I am currently not going to be able to keep up with weekly posts that are so detailed....but I am going to post recipes that I try that are amazing (or not so much) that I want to share with everyone. Tonight's meal was amazing.

Today is day one of my next whole30. I'm coming off a few days of not sleeping well and generally feeling bleh so it's got to happen. Like for real this time. I'm super excited that several people I know are also doing a whole30 right now. Tonight was a pretty big test for two reasons. 1.) It's family movie night which means there is a blanket in the floor and pizza ordered...and 2.) as I'm sitting down with my non-pizza, whole30 approved dinner my BFF sends me a text that says "we're going to serendipity"...which is my most favorite in all the world ice cream places. They have a flavor called salty caramel swirl that I would consider to be the most incredible thing to ever touch my tongue...ever...ever ever. Just a note about this one: I am still going to have an occasional drink, but it's only going to be this amazingly pure hard cider called Crispin that I feel is the best quality gluten-free, nothing nasty added beverages.

Okay, back to the food. Tonight I fixed what was supposed to be a chicken salad ,but I was too lazy to actually chop my romaine and just used the whole leaves as boats to hold this amazing sweet and salty chicken mixture. Let's be real, cooking anything in bacon is amazing.. Here is the link for Mango Chicken Salad with Chipotle Mayo I do think the chipotle mayo was tasty, but an avocado dressing might be even better...I'm going to have to try that next time! And I just realized as I'm writing this that I forgot the almond slices...I'm planning on having the left over meat mixture for breakfast with some eggs fried in duck fat (my new favorite cooking fat!!!!) My mouth is watering just thinking about it!!!

Happy Eating!
