Transforming Tracey, Day 2

 Day 2 is off to a good start.  I did the 2 mile workout this morning.  I have the Walk At Home app and this is the workout I did:


Breakfast: 1 Medium Banana  and 1 Orgain Plant Based Chocolate Protein Shake.

Lunch: Veggie Soup (Cabbage, Roasted Sweet Potatoes, Frozen Multicolored Carrots, Frozen Green Beans, 1/4 head of Cabbage, 1 onion) and Chobani Greek Yogurt Black Cherry on the bottom.

Dinner:  Mexican Quinoa Sweet Potatoes  

This is my first time trying this recipe.  We enjoyed this recipe and I definitely think that it will be one to add to the rotation!

    1. Thank you! With the cooler mornings, it isn't always easy to get up but it's easier to get it done first thing than wait until later!

  2. I do well with exercise. I am consistent. My issue is my eating. Do you meal plan? I have been winging it. I simply must eat better.

    1. Meal Planning is definitely something I'm working more on for my whole family. I try to write out something on a steno pad and while it may change, it gives me some sort of guideline.

What's Cooking Wednesday, May 7, 2025

I hesitate to even call this a recipe.  I have been making this super easy, but versatile recipe for years.  My ex-grandmother-in-law made hers spicier, but for my young one (at the time I started making this) wasn't a fan of spicy foods.  So I created a cheeseburger variety of the meat pie.  It's simply Grands biscuits, hamburger meat and cheese.  I believe she used the standard biscuit, but I have been using Grands for years.  You can absolutely change this up to use different ingredients, but it's a family favorite so I haven't changed it much.  I may do a different variety soon to bring to you!   You can watch the video here:  YouTube

 S’mores Protein Bites Recipe You can find the original recipe  here  from Six Sisters' Stuff.  The one below is the way I prepared it. Ingredients 1½ cups Simple Truth Old Fashioned Oats ¼ cup crushed graham cracker crumbs ½ cup Simple Truth almond butter ½ cup raw honey ¼ cup vanilla protein powder (I used Orgain Vanilla Protein Powder) 1 teaspoon vanilla extract ½ cup mini marshmallows ¼ cup mini chocolate chips Instructions Combine all ingredients in a bowl or stand mixer until well combined. Roll dough into 1 inch balls and place on a baking sheet covered with foil or parchment paper. Place in the freezer for about 1 hour, then store in a resealable bag or airtight container in the fridge for up to a week (or in the freezer for up to a month). This original recipe says 15 servings.  I am not sure if I used a smaller scoop but I came out with 25 or so.  There were a couple that were smaller.
