It has been a full day for healthy meals straight from our kitchen. We started off with some good, old fashioned egg salad sandwiches. Truth be told, they weren’t quite ‘old-fashioned’ but they were super healthy while still being very tasty.
Start with your bread… Manna from Heaven low carb bread. I followed “The Blood Sugar Diet” recipe, but needed to make a quick substitution due to the lack of psyllium husk powder in the grocery store. Due to a quick Google search, I opted for 2 tbsp ground chia seeds which I already had on hand. Check out my video making the bread, which I guarantee we will have again…
Next up, the Greek Yogurt Egg Salad from Damn Delicious. Instead of a crispy, warm baguette, I served a deconstructed sandwich with a small wedge of Manna from Heaven bread, a large lettuce leaf and 1/2 an avocado sliced alongside 2 scoops of egg salad.

And it’s now time for dinner…. man, we are eating well today!
Are you craving spaghetti? How about a low-carb, no sugar compromise with zucchini noodles and turkey meatballs?

- Using a medium sized scooper, portion out the meatballs on the baking sheet. Bake for 25 minutes.
Garlic Butter Zoodles
- Melt butter in a large skillet; add minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Add zucchini noodles and toss in the garlic butter; squeeze the lemon for the juice.
- Cook until the liquid is mostly absorbed.

The only thing that would make this day better for food would be a hot, fresh chocoalte chip cookie straight from the oven…. A girl can dream, can’t she? 😉
