Day 29: And 1 to Go!

I can't believe tomorrow is the last day of the challenge. Time went by so quickly!

Breakfast: This morning we had banana pancakes w/coconut oil, coconut flour, almond milk, eggs, vanilla and some cinnamon. To balance with some fat and protein I had a small bacon omelet.

Snack: Handful of cashews and one of my kids pouches (spinach, pear, and peas-actually pretty tasty).

Lunch: Spaghetti squash (yum) with a garlic and ghee (ghee is a form of clarified butter) sauce. We also had some ground turkey and kale chips. I added two little dried apricots as a "dessert." The spaghetti squash was fabulous again. One of my favorites!

Snack: Apple slices and peanut butter (I know peanut butter is not Paleo, but we ran out of almond butter and I was craving and hungry).

Dinner: We went out to dinner for my hubbies mom's birthday. I find it interesting that I hardly ate out at all during the past 30 days and now we just ate out 2 days in a row. We went to Di Pescara, a steak and seafood restaurant. We had a great waiter who was really helpful. They even had a small gluten-free menu. I chose grilled chicken and a sweet potato for dinner (the sweet potato was huge and filling). They did have options for gluten-free pasta and some salads. They also could have made many of the fish and steak options gluten-free as well. I had a glass of wine and decaf coffee as well. All in all, a great meal at a very nice restaurant. I am sure we will try it again.

Tomorrow is the last day of the challenge!
