I am still perplexed about the quantity of food the guide lists we should eat each day. I am full just eating 2/3 of the plan. For instance, this morning called for the hard boiled eggs and I only ate 4 of the 5-6+ they recommend. I am not Cool Hand Luke after all. Also did not eat the cereal but I ate a half a piece of lightly buttered whole grain toast. And despite being full from that meal, I just ate a half serving of cream of wheat. Now I am back to being very full.
Recipe
I made a slight modification on the cream of wheat that I thought I would share because it tasted pretty good:
1/2 cup water, bring to boil
add 1/2 Tbsp EACH flaxseed and wheat germ
add a little salt. taste and add a little more if necessary
add 1.5 Tbsp of cream of wheat
Stir to make sure you get no lumps
Add .5 Tbsp of real maple syrup (optional)
Cook a few minutes until right consistency
Pour into bowl and stir in 1 Tbsp of vanilla whey protein powder and stir until smooth.
I really liked the vanilla/maple taste along with the nutty elements of flax/wheat germ. Excuse me while I veg out from my carb-load meal #2...
Hey! Get moving!
