Taco Salad and Sangria!

Lettuce, lean ground turkey, taco seasoning, salsa, green chillies, scallions, jalapenos, cherry tomatoes, red onion, grated cheese topped with reduced fat sour cream in a whole wheat tortilla that was baked and formed into a bowl!

My Sangria was made with pink lemonade, sparkling water, Shiraz from Spain with Strawberries, blackberries and orange slices.

Canada Treats!

They’re were a few things I HAD to have while back in Toronto because they are amazingly tasty and close to the heart…or stomach. :P

The first was a Vendor Sausage. In New York you only get little hotdogs with soggy buns with only the choice of Mustard and Ketchup. Yukkkk! In Toronto, I got a nice big sausage topped with Ketchup, Mustard, Relish, Onions, Hot Peppers and Pickles on a warm toasted bun. You can also add sauerkraut, bacon bits and more. :)

The Second was Peameal on a bun. Peameal Bacon and Spicy Mustard on a toasted bun. A favouuuuurite Canadian Staple. I plan on finding a butcher in NYC to get me some real Canadian Bacon. I think my life would be complete! :)

I did dabble in some Ketchup and All Dressed chips too. :O

I <3 Tomatoes!!!!
I can’t believe how amazing, fresh and tasty the tomatoes are here in Canada. Definitely not as great as the tomatoes I get in Brooklyn…ANNNND they’re cheaper too!
About to use some of these in tonight’s Healthy Mexican Dish.
Currently trying not to drool on my keyboard right now :P

On Vacation Meals.
Mom made me breakfast this morning!  She just put together what&#8217;s left in the fridge since we&#8217;ve cleared it out ;)
She made a huge plate for me but she doesn&#8217;t realize that my stomach can&#8217;t take in all that food anymore. I need smaller portions. I couldn&#8217;t finish it all.
But&#8230;Breakfast was yummy.
Potatoes, mushrooms, onions, wieners (yes I know! but it was delicious), scrambled eggs, flat pizza bread with pesto and tomato and lastly watermelon and grapes.
This was my last Breakfast with mom before heading back to NYC but we are going to make a very yummy healthy dinner tonight! :)

Today&#8217;s simple lunch.
Whole wheat wrap filled with light mayo, ham, cucumber, tomato, cheese and pickles sided with some fresh watermelon.
I would have added lettuce but we ran out. :(   It was still yummy though!

 On vacation workout.
Level 1 of the 30 Day Shred and 30 minutes on my moms exercise bike while watching Jamie Olivers 30 minute meals. I sped up during the commercials to give myself a more intense workout.
