So, I started this whole "clean eating" thing back in February 2011, after being really intrigued about a plan called the Whole30 . I decided to give it a go, but quickly realized that I needed to make it more adaptable to the way that our family eats and lives. I like my glass of wine at night. I don't think a piece of gum is going to sabotage me. I think that a DQ Blizzard is a good thing every once in a while. If my friend makes the most awesome jalapeno poppers you've ever had, you know I'm going to have one. But I also know that I feel pretty darn good when I'm eating quality proteins, fats, veggies, fruits and nuts, while leaving out dairy, grains, legumes (including soy and peanuts) and the big one, sugar, at least most of the time.
Here are some of the ways to do just that....

Don't Knock It 'Til You've Tried It Breakfast

Okay, so I know that this sounds pretty gross, but it's actually really good, especially after a good workout--it has carbs, healthy fats, and protein all in one.

1 baked sweet potato, warmed (I usually pull one from my pre-cooked batch and just split it in half and heat for 1 minute in the microwave)
1 (2 if you're really hungry!) hardboiled egg, chopped
1/4 avocado, diced
S&P to taste.

Place sweet potato on plate (or bowl).  Add egg and avocado.  Season.  That's it!
