Day 1: Kitchen Hijacking

As I had no coconut cream this am this was my coffee. Black. Yuck.


Then the shit hit the fan. They made ravioli. In our kitchen. On Day 1. RAVIOLI. Two kinds. Two sauces. There was fresh bread. And cheese. And Fresh bread. I did not give in. I did not let it beat me. I want to swim in a pool of Alfredo sauce and sausage ravioli, but I did not give in. Honestly, it started with good intentions. We have a friend who is having some struggles and Rob was trying to occupy them and do something fun. He has such a good heart. Bless him.

I started the morning making broth and then started IP Beef Stew before the kitchen was hijacked. Let me tell you this. When I opened that pot of stew so that I could pick out all of the mushroom evidence I was obsessed with the smell. And I could eat this. This meal is Whole30 compliant! I cannot wait to finish it tomorrow for dinner. I literally cannot wait. While their ravioli was drying I finished raw veggie chopping and made mayo. It worked! I thought it was hit or miss a couple times but it worked! High five! Chicken salads are made and I am ready for the rest of the week!


Seeing as I was not making a pork tenderloin for dinner anymore, I threw some chicken sausage into the pan I used to sauté mushrooms for the chicken salad. I deglazed the pan with sauce from the stew and a bit of broth and tossed in some shredded brussels sprouts. Finished it by adding the mushrooms from the stew and sliced up the sausage and added it back to the pan. Delish!

Cannot wait to see what obstacles Day 2 throws at me!
