Anyway, today was shopping day which I will get to as soon as I share my food diary for you!
breakfast My two friends Shannon and Chloe made plans to grab lunch and since I crashed at Shannon's last night, I tagged along. I am so glad I did because we went to FLYING BISCUIT! Flying Biscuit is absolutely amazing and has such a great vibe. Unfortunately, you always have to wait 30+ minutes for a table so you end up STARVING by the time food is served! Shannon loves their hummus so we started there. I was still on the fence about hummus but I tried it anyway- boy am I glad! It's Roasted Red Pepper Hummus with tortillas and feta cheese. YUM! I am going to start adding feta to the hummus I bought a week ago :) Shannon got an awesome looking salad while Chloe and I opted for breakfast all day (it was noon by the time we ate). I ordered the Piedmont Omelette which has chicken sausage, turkey bacon, sauteed onions and cheddar cheese. I got potatoes on the side and a wheat biscuit. One cup of coffee and a glass of water rounded out a delicious meal!

dinner I skipped lunch today since I really had a brunch and was STUFFED all day. After finishing up some grocery shopping, I decided I wanted to stop and get Chipotle for dinner. I went with a salad and built my own with black beans (I'm trying to incorporate new things in my diet I swear!), cheese, chicken, onions and peppers, corn and pico de gallo with their honey cilantro dressing. IT WAS INCREDIBLE and very filling. I'm feeling good about my choices while I was there since normally I would have loaded up with a burrito of some sort!
Okay, on to the shopping list for this week (this sucks- I totally took a picture of the list too).
- Horizon Organic 1% Chocolate Milk

Okay, so thoughts on my grocery list? Also, I really need great recipes for chicken. It tends to be ALL I eat and I do the same thing with it over and over so if you have great recipes you can share, please do in the comments section!

When I get back in town I have a cookbook or two I can give you. One is nothing but chicken.
I really love Prevention's Sugar Solutions cookbook when I'm trying to eat healthy. There's some really great recipes and all the nutrition facts are broken out, in case you're keeping track. There's also a whole lifestyle/diet program explained in the book. Here's a few recipes from the website - http://sugarsolutiononline.com/ms/ssofeatures/recipes.html
