First Day's Food - Pix & Reviews!


This is the bag your food comes in. Day's menu located in the pocket. 




















Cherry Vanilla Whole Wheat Muffin w/Fresh Apple and Wild Berry Yogurt (7:52 am)


Yogurt is tasty, albeit a little warm from sitting on my porch for a period of time. 1/2 apple was good (tasted like an apple, lol). Muffin was small but very filling and tasty. Loved the little dried cherries inside! It was tasty, albeit a little sweet. 































Grilled Chicken Breast on Whole Wheat Cibatta w/Celery Sticks & Pistachio Pesto (11:35 am)


Chicken sandwich is really delicious! Tastes like something I would get from Panera Bread. I like how they separated the Pistachio Pesto so it wouldn't make the sandwich soggy while sitting in the cooler. There is a very substantial amount of chicken on this sandwich! Pure awesomeness! 




























Fillet of Corvina Fish w/Sweet & Sour Sauce w/Creamy Herbed Quinoa & Oven Roasted Roma Tomato (6:30 pm)


My first time eating quinoa and it was excellent. I love the way when you chew it, it makes sort of a popping sound in your mouth  :) The Corvina fish was good and the oven roasted Roma tomatoes tasted fresh. To be honest, my favorite part of this meal was my unknown: the qunioa! See? It pays to experiment with new foods! Yumm-o!












































Balsamic Grilled Eggplant w/Fresh Mozzarella & Basil (3:15 pm) 


Delicious again! I was a little worried that fresh mozzarella wouldn't transport well after sitting in the cooler, but I was wrong. It was yet another mighty tasty meal/snack! The balsamic vinegar had kind of separated a little bit, but a quick shake of the container fixed that minor glitch. Even alfalfa sprouts taste good with balsamic vinegar on them! 









Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies (9:30 pm)


The cookies were tasty. They weren't like oven-baked Nestle Tollhouse cookies; they tasted like oven-baked healthy cookies. But for a healthy cookie, they were top-notch. 


*note: I've been feeling full since lunch. I only had the snack @ 3:15pm because I'm trying to eat every 2.5-3 hours. So there's definitely no hungry feelings on this meal delivery program. 



And a final note to say that after taking SO many pictures today, I'll only be taking pix of the prepared meals from now on. No more pix with the food in their boxes before/after style. It wouldn't be a big deal, but Blogger isn't the best at photo layout. I hope somebody out there finds all this helpful. If nothing else, it can act as my personal, very detailed food diary  =D  I noticed I had a lot of energy today, but that could be attributed to the fact that I've been excited to eat all throughout the day on this new program. I can't wait for tomorrow so I can eat more delicious food!

PS--Once again, I apologize for the silly layout and extra spacing in these posts. I worked on a yearbook staff as well as a newspaper staff as a layout editor for years and for the life of me, I cannot figure out how to properly lay out individual photos with captions on Blogger  >.<
