where's the beef?

Today started with a half turkey sandwich on toasted sourdough as my pre-run snack.

Six dehydrating (and slow) miles later, I had a kashi dark chocolate coconut bar mmm...

but what a good lemony home cooked dinner!
-a small but perfectly seared ny strip steak
-tender-crisp garlic sauteed green beans with a generous drizzle of lemon juice
-pan roasted red potatoes
-mixed baby green salad with lemon/olive oil dressing

With so much lemon on my plate, I squeezed a bit more on my slightly charred steak- perfect with the crust! I love the bright flavor of lemon, wakes up almost anything! It was the perfect dinner....I wanted more!

After a trip to the gym (spa) for some sauna and jacuzzi time, I came home and had a small leftover piece of steak with an egg-white omlete filled with jack cheese and topped with green tomatillo salsa and some toast to round it out. My own diner breakfast-for-dinner meal...hit the spot after a session in the steam.
