A return to potatoes, fruits & veggies (Mary's Mini McDougall plan)
I'm looking for a simple, healthy meal plan and once again that brought me back to Mary's Mini. It worked a treat when I tried it back in 2007 I lost 9 pounds in 2 weeks. I did find it boring for the first 4-5 days, but then it just becomes normal and routine. I think she's on to something because most species on the planet eat a simple diet with little variety. And potatoes are delicious and so good for you. I love veggies - not so much fruits, but I can manage one each morning with breakfast I think.
I found this massive 6kg bag of
potatoes at the store for $6 - and they were really nice big ones, like I
used to get back home -- Aussie potatoes are different varieties than
what I got in Wisconsin, and I haven't found one that tastes like the
big Idaho baked ones mom used to make. Anyway, these were all nice big
ones so I bought it and immediately threw four large ones in the oven
tonight so I'll have some ready for the next few meals. I'll make some
mashed ones tomorrow to serve with salsa over them. I'll let you know
how it goes.
