I promised when I started this blog I would share recipes.  Well, all my family and clients and friends know I really don’t cook.  I call what I do:  Gather, Assemble, Combine and Consume.  I get really healthy components, nothing packaged, except fresh, one-person meals and salads from Trader Joe’s.  Reason being is my husband does not eat what I do or when I do, unless I make a special effort to fix his kind of meal and book him at the right time.  So, I live on salads, steamed and sauteed vegetables, homemade soups, fresh chicken, turkey, fish, lamb and fruit.  He lives on some other things (chicken and ice-cream and whey shakes) and eats the same thing, day in and day out.  He will eat a salad if I put in front of him.  Unless he is already on one of his ice cream sandwiches…..Forget cooked vegetables or a green smoothie!

If I ate what he eats, I would gain at least 3 lbs a week, and get sick.  I have to watch what I eat and I have learned this the hard way.  So, instead of recipes, I decided I will take pictures of the various combinations I eat and start with that.  So, stay tuned for some interesting posts over the next few weeks!
