Carob Lime Bircher Muesli with Organic Green Tea.
Skinny Bride Mission Recipe: Combine 2 Tbs steel cut oats with 1/2 cup water, juice and zest of 1/2 lime, 1/4 cup organic blueberries, 2 strawberries, 2 Tbs unsweetened shredded coconut, 1 tsp chia seeds and 1 small tub 2% Fage strained Greek yoghurt. Soak overnight in fridge and serve topped with a dollop of sheep's milk yoghurt and a few fresh organic blueberries.
This stuff is great. The chia seeds and the oats expand to form an impressive serving by morning. I didn't even notice the half-serve of steel cut oats compared to yesterday's recipe. It's filling and delicious.

AFTERNOON SNACK
After a huge weights workout, I ate half a small tub of 2% Fage Strained Greek Yoghurt ....
.... 1/4 Tbs All Natural Almond Butter ....
.... and half an Organic Pink Lady Apple.
Truth be told, I was craving chocolate. Garden of Eden sells a minature block of Michel Cluizel 99% chocolate that it packed with healthy flavoniods and minimal sugar. (How can less than 1% do any harm?) I am daydreaming of that thing .... Might have to get some later. If I ignore a craving for too long, I often give in eventually and eat 10 times as much.

ANOTHER AFTERNOON SNACK
Oh my God, I had to!
It was EXACTLY what my soul has been crying out for. A teeny tiny (30oz) block of 99% Dark Chocolate.
Every cell in my body is singing. I feel like sunshine is bursting through my heart and beaming across the world.
Man, I love chocolate!

I balanced it with 3 slices of Applegate Farms SMoked Turkey Breast.

MAKE YOUR OWN NUT MILK
I just stumbled upon this great recipe on BodyIncredible.com for homemade nut milk. I'm going to give it a try in the next few weeks. I've never considered Brazil Nut Milk before, but it could be the basis of a fabulous new smoothie recipe.
