Lunch, Day Thirty-Six


  • 3 oz ground turkey with 1/4 tsp onion powder, 1/4 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp Worcestshire sauce & Dijon mustard
  • 1 whole wheat roll
  • 1/2 cup green beans
  • 1/2 cup cooked squash
  • 1/4 cup crushed pineapple and 1 tbsp raisins

On Tuesday I'd substituted squash and green beans for salad and a potato, and since I had the remainders of both in the fridge, I did so again. As with breakfast, I only had 1/4 cup of fruit, so I did the tablespoon of raisins again, though this time I mixed them in with the squash, vastly improving its otherwise-bland taste and texture.

This time I also remembered to mix the spices and Worcestshire sauce into the turkey, making for a vastly more flavorful burger. I really enjoy these turkey burgers, and I don't even mind cooking them because they smell so good. This time, though, I actually followed the directions and instead of cooking it in a splash of oil, I used cooking spray, with perfect results. I hope these little changes will help - even if they don't impact my weight loss, it does help my sense of discipline.
