Eating My Greens and Grains

I have put all of whole grains in mason jars! I spent the afternoon organizing my grains and putting them in a place I will see them to be reminded to cook with them. I love the look of them and feel good to know they will stay fresh longer in the jars. I have been eating oatmeal for breakfast and I am excited to be trying new grains.
Today was my first day I really added greens to my diet. For breakfast I made a smoothie with spinach, kale, collard greens, flax seed, an apple, banana, maca, fresh mixed fruit from costco, ice and a little bit of water. It tasted fine. I also had scrambled eggs with zucchini, yellow squash and some red onion. I actually stayed full until lunch. This is the first time I didn't a snack in between meals. In the past I have to snack or my headaches would come and I would get sick. For lunch I had a salad with all the greens I mention and I added baby arugula, carrots, tomotoes, black beans, and flax seeds. I again stayed full until dinner. For dinner I made chili with black and kidney beans. I put zucchin, spinach and flax seed in mine. Paleena wants to work up to added a total of 3 tablespoons of flax seeds a day. I felt good today and look forward to more days like this.
