Mine included some farm-fresh sugar snap peas (surprisingly sweet!), plus leftover tostada from dinner this week, including another version of our avocado crema – this time 50% avocado and greek yogurt mixed with southwest seasoning and lemon juice.

Cycle class was tough this morning because I think I started it on the tired end of the spectrum. I chugged lots of water before class, which meant that I had to leave class in the middle to use the bathroom! I came home and sipped some coconut water. And then ate water in melon [...]
