I’m on Day 3 of Tracy Anderson’s 30 Day Method, and I have been trying and mostly loving all the recipes so far!
This is kind of a big deal for me, because I do not have an adventurous palette.
I like plain, plain, and more plain mixed with anything that’s on a kid’s menu.
yum yum!
So, you can only imagine my surprise when todays menu included a TON of salmon, and woah,
stop {hold?} the presses…
stop {hold?} the presses…
I freaking loved it.
Okay, so maybe not loved, but I LIKED an awful lot.
Still, if I was presented with that or a plain cheeseburger, I may still choose what’s near and dear.
But, like my sister said, it’s all about the baby steps.
Anyway, because I adored these recipes so much, I decided I would be a dear and share them with the world.
You can thank me in cash.
Or jewelry.
Or, even, cute clothes.
In other words, your welcome.

I can’t believe, for one: I just posted recipes on my blog, and for two: it included salmon.
I’m kind of a big girl now.

I used to be like that too. Then I met my husband…
In the 5 years we’ve been together, I’ve tried more “new” foods and liked a great majority of them, than I had the 18 years before!
The salmon recipes sound yummy. We’ll have to give them a try {Hubby loves fish}.
And good luck on the 30 Day Method!
Love it! 🙂 sending a link for a great produce place that happens to make Organic farmer’s market bags every week… in case you get really adventurous you can add fresh catch of the day to the bag too
