Lunch, Day Eight


  • "turkey stew" made with 2.5 oz ground turkey breast, rolled into balls, garlic, carrot, onion, potato, celery, fresh cilantro, low-sodium chicken broth, parsley, basil, oregano, sage, poultry seasoning, and black pepper
  • 2 cups Romaine lettuce
  • 2 tbsp fat-free Italian dressing
  • 1/2 cup canned peach slices

This was preparation-intense, though I enjoyed it. The taste was kind of bland, and it desperately needed salt, which I felt guilty for adding at the end. I had used low-sodium chicken broth instead of the vegetable broth called for (the store didn't have any), which I think effected the taste, as well as obviously making it more of a soup than a stew. With the salt added, though, it was quite tasty.

This recipe actually made more than I could fit in the bowl - there was about another 1/4 cup or so that I had after finishing this big bowlful. I'm still pretty amazed at the serving sizes they give on this stuff - is this really eating healthy??
