Menu Wk 1

The first three weeks of P90X are called the "fat shredder" weeks. Scott is going by the diet and working out here and there when his schedule allows him to. He is already seeing results and this is from just eating the food! I am doing both the workout and the food. Here is what is on tap for the whole family today (with small modifications here and there) ..........

Day 1
Breakfast
  • Mushroom Omelet (Kids are on their own during breakfast,but they do have the option to eat whatever they want off our menu)
  • 1 Cup Fresh Strawberries
  • 8 oz. low fat cottage cheese 1%

Snack

  • Protein bar ( I eat Cliff bars, they are very good!)
  • Recovery Drink (This has been hard to replace due to my reaction to sucralose, but Jillian Michael's to the rescue!! Walmart 12.00, all natural, no sucralose!)

Lunch

  • Chef Salad

Snack

  • 2 oz. of soy nuts (you can replace with ONE of the following~ 1 oz dried fruit, 8 oz. cottage cheese, 1 frozen fruit bar, 8 oz. frozen sorbet, 12 mini rice cakes, 1 Tb peanut butter with celery sticks, and 1-1/2 oz of string cheese) There is alot listed that you can have these are just a few of our favorites!

Dinner

  • Salmon with Lemon Dill sauce (Hubby doesn't like Salmon so we modify with chicken or cook a steak, easy enough to modify, and keep the Lemon Dill Sauce :)
  • 1/2 cup asparagus
  • 1 cup of wild rice
  • 1 cup of Roasted Red Pepper Soup
Here are the rest of the recipes I have made and will continue to make. Sorry no pictures, maybe in the future......

Mushroom Omelet

6 egg whites
salt and pepper to taste
3/4 cup of mushrooms (modify if you don't like them, with another veg.)
2 tbl of green onion
1/2 Roma tomato
1-1/2 oz. of low-fat cheddar cheese, shredded

In small bowl mix egg whites salt and pepper.

Coat pan with olive oil or cooking spray, add veg, and cook till tender.

Add egg mixture and cook until set on the bottom. Sprinkle cheese over the top, fold omelet in half and cook a bit longer.

Note: Mine doesn't always come out looking like an omelet. It sticks to the pan sometimes and looks more like a scramble. Taste great though!!
