Day 1: Lunchtime

Lunch went really well. I made curried chickpeas and quinoa last night. I added this to a bowl of lettuce and stirred it all up to eat.

Lunch tasted great but was not too filling.










That's when I had some of this:















The ingredients were all whole foods(organic corn tortilla) BUT oil was also listed for both the hummus and chips.

I now know to bring more raw food snacks for tomorrow.
