Day one.

From a day I have learned this: being healthy is an inconvenience. You can't grab nutritious items off of a sale rack at the grocery market like you can with a bag of Doritos or Lays Chips. So to maintain a healthy diet, it's going to take some extra work in this trans-fat-infested American society.

Day one quick snack:

-Baby carrots (washed & peeled)

-Cucumbers (washed & cut)

-A dash of salt and pepper

-Sesame seeds (your discretion)

-About a pinch of parmesan cheese (finely finely grated)

Take these ingredients and throw em on a plate. Literally throw them on. It sounds like an odd concoction of foods, but it tastes so fresh and surprisingly, there's a real quick in the outcome (I'm not sure whether or not to call it a salad). On the side, I added a thin slice of light cheese just to get my small intake of fat/dairy. Mmmm mm mmm.

I also bought a ton of lemons today at the market - hopefully I can make some sort of lean lemon chicken dinner this week :)
