 good morning guys happy wednesday as always i'm filming today's video on monday and as you can see i'm taking a walk i am not at boot camp this morning because i have an injury and i'll fill you guys in a little bit later this morning on my injury itself since my injury on friday that was the last time i worked out and i really felt like i wanted to just get out and take a walk even if i'm a little slower than normal i wanted to get out and take a walk this morning so i'll fill you guys in on exactly what happened as far as my injury goes but it's such a nice morning i had to get out and take a little walk and of course wanted to welcome you to today's video i did have my protein coffee this morning finished that did a little bit of work on my computer i'm feeling a little hungry so when i get home from my walk i think i'm going to go ahead and make some breakfast get our day started but i wanted to hop on and welcome you to today's what i eat in a day okay i'm ready for the day i'm hungry i'm going to have some breakfast first i thought i'd show you guys my cute little sweatshirt that i'm wearing today i bought this off of sheen it was actually in my fall sheen try on haul i'll link that video down below link the sweatshirt for you super affordable it's a little bit more lightweight which is perfect for arizona fall super super comfortable i love the leopard sleeve we know i love leopard everything so i am going to make a yogurt bowl for breakfast and you know how much i love my yogurt bowls but i've discovered a new little concoction that i have been loving for fall so you know the basis of my yogurt bowl is always non-fat plain yogurt it doesn't really matter the brand right now i have this nor organic from i think this came from misfits market it is 100 calories for a serving and has 17 grams of protein and then i always mix in a couple of whole earth sweetener packets for my sweetener i shared a black forest one that i love that you guys have been saying that you love so today we're going to do an apple pie type of yogurt so i have the no sugar added apple pie filling this is just the walmart brand and then i always add a little bit of granola for a crunch and then for the whole apple pie vibe and to get in some healthy fat i'm going to add some walnuts so let's go ahead and put together my yogurt bowl i'm going to weigh out 150 grams of the yogurt that is a serving and then i like to mix in my two packets of whole earth sweetener and then 85 grams of the apple pie filling is a serving and that's only 30 calories so i'm going to add 85 grams so there you go that's a that's 90 grams close enough that's quite a bit of the apple pie filling and then i'm going to zero it out and add 30 grams of granola right now i'm just using the member mark members mark from sam's club this is their honey almond you can really use any granola that you want and then i'm going to do 10 grams of walnuts so i'm going to kind of break those up into a little bit smaller bits only because i want them to go a long way we know that walnuts are pretty high in points and calories so if you break them up really small you'll get a little bit of walnut in every bite and then i think i'm going to add just a little bit of cinnamon on top really bring out the whole apple pie flavor so here is the apple pie yogurt bowl doesn't this looks so good we have lots of protein healthy fats we have a little bit of crunch some carbs so let's taste test see if this is good and you guys will have another really good yogurt bowl in your arsenal okay cheers so good it tastes like apple pie i had get the crunch of the apple the cinnamon the granola highly recommend the cinnamon those big chunks of apple pie filling i'm just kind of breaking them up as i'm taking a bite and the walnuts just give a nice crunch as well 10 out of 10 recommend i'm really excited if you follow me here you know when i was selling real estate in washington i would always talk about how much i loved all the built-in bread boxes in the kitchens and how i wish i had one but for some reason we never purchased a house that had a bread box well you guys also know my love for good pick i have so many good pick products i have their drawer organizer their saran wrap organ organizer the floating shelves in my dining room the baskets that i use for storage and i was on their website and i saw that they had a large bread box and i about died i was so excited i immediately add to carton ordered it's only 3899 and it is such a high quality bread box it's a hundred percent natural bamboo so it is perfect to fit under your cabinet it's a two-layer design so there's two different floors in the bread box so you get twice the storage that was one thing i was really excited about it was super super easy to put together i did it by myself i put the entire bread box together by myself in about 10 minutes i also love that it has a transparent window so you can easily check your bread without having to open the door it's perfect for baked bread bagel scones muffins even potatoes and like i said super easy to assemble super easy to clean and again it is on their website for only 3899 i think it looks so nice on my countertop i was able to put my bread that i eat on the top shelf troy's bread that he eats on the bottom shelf that way it's just a little bit easier to keep things separated the quality is impeccable for the price i couldn't believe when it showed up in the box the box was so heavy it weighs about 10 pounds unassembled and then i put it together and i couldn't believe how great the quality is of this bread box i'm going to go ahead and link it down below for you it's on the Good Pick website while you're there shop around i own so many products from Good Pick and every single one of them the quality is exceptional this bread box did not disappoint i absolutely love it i'll link the bread box and the actual website over to Good Pick down below for you but i'm so excited to finally have a bread box in my kitchen what's happening go get him lola look get Palmer yeah go get him Palmer yeah get him get Palmer yeah go go so lemon tree update kind of a sad lemon tree update actually oh hi guys hi pumpkin so it's been a little windy here as it moves into fall it gets a little bit more windy here and all of the weight of these lemons i mean if you look at these these are absolutely huge lemons it's a lot of weight on this tree and sadly this last week not one but two i don't know if you can see them there of the big branches of the tree broke just shattered fell off so Troy ratchet strapped which is actually a really smart idea he ratchet strapped this big front branch onto our fence to try to hold it up especially with the wind because it is packed full of lemons and if it breaks that's the main part of our tree so we have a call into our landscaper we may once this harvest is done have to really trim this back but i'll take you guys inside and show you all the lemons diesel do you want to show them the lemons i'll show you guys all the lemons that i picked off of the branch of the tree after it broke and then there's these two look at all of these and i already took an entire grocery bag chopped full over to my neighbor so i have that bowl and then in my fruit bowl i have a whole bunch more and i've i've actually been putting the lemons in my water every day too and i still have that many lemons now they're not right but we googled it and it said that they would continue to ripen even if they were still green and they are i mean they're really soft i've been putting them in my water and it's been fine so what i'm doing is allowing these to ripen and then when my in-laws come over on sunday for a little Halloween dinner i'll give a whole bunch of these to my mother-in-law so it was a sad day that the branch broke but we were able to salvage a lot of the lemons so like i said i've just been putting them in my water speaking of water i definitely need to get going on more water for the day it's morning snack time i am pretty hungry i haven't been hungry the last few days because i haven't been feeling very well between my injury my cold i just haven't been very hungry but today i am a little bit more hungry and what sounds really good is my rice cake with nut butter i don't know why but that sounds like the perfect morning snack so i've been using a caramel rice cake i tried to get the quaker ones but my fries or my kroger store was out of them so i actually got the kroger brand i like these better they're crispier and they're more caramel-y or if that's a word so i'm gonna have one of those and then there are four brand new flavors of american dream nut butter that just launched yesterday and this is their homage to camping so all four flavors have everything to do with camping i have tried all four of these and every one of them it gets better and better these launches get better and better from american dream nut butter i'll walk you guys through each of the different flavors i'll pop up a picture here from when i opened it up and stirred it up so you can see what all the mixins and everything look like but the first one is pumpkin spice latte and this is an almond butter i love their peanut and their almond butters you guys know that those are my favorite i actually pulled up here on my phone the description so i can give you an accurate description and again i'll pop up pictures of what it looks like all mixed up how yummy it looks so this is sweet and spicy pumpkin latte flavored almond butter topped with crushed gluten-free snickerdoodle cookies cinnamon chips and premium white chocolate chips it is so good it is incredibly good it has that little undernote of coffee lots of pumpkin spice flavor you guys know i love pumpkin everything so i was super excited about this one and it didn't disappoint and the second almond butter that was released was s'moreo this is the first layered almond butter that they have put out it is so good so this one says honey graham flavored almond butter layered with natella core yes natella core layered yet again with a chocolate marshmallow flavored almond butter topped with crushed gluten-free graham crackers gluten-free chocolate cookies and mini marshmallows so it is like s'mores on steroids i love that it's layered i hope that american dream nut butter continues to do these layered these layered nut butters because every bite you get all of the yummy goodness of all the mixins that went also incredible and then there's the hikers haul a peanut butter i love their peanut butters and this one i was excited about it's creamy peanut butter topped with gluten-free granola mini m&m's and chopped roasted peanuts so it reminds me of a granola bar and it's called hikers haul so it's that whole granola bar vibe with the peanuts and the m&m's the perfect perfect salty sweet and then lastly the cashew butter to the camping line is the mousse tracks and you guys know that the cashew butter is not my favorite i much prefer the almond butter and peanut butter but this one is absolutely delicious and mousse tracks is my favorite ice cream so i was still excited when this was released it says vanilla chip flavored cashew butter topped with peanut butter cups thick indulgent fudge sauce and mini peanut butter chips it is peanut butter goodness it has these little mini rhesus peanut butter cups that remind me so much of the ice cream it just makes my heart so happy so even though the cashew butters aren't my favorite this one is really good so you can't go wrong with any of the camping inspired series of american dream nut butter i will link that i will link american dream nut butter down below with 10% offer you guys they still have their halloween flavors some are sold out some aren't so if you want to grab some of the halloween flavors they were also incredible that is available still on the american dream nut butter website now today i just have to decide what flavor i want to put on my rice cake i'm thinking i want s'moreo that's that layered almond butter this one has eight grams of protein nine carbs and 12 grams of fat and two tablespoons 160 calories what i normally do is just one tablespoon on my rice cake so i'm going to weigh out one tablespoon of s'moreo and that's going to go on my rice cake for my morning snack so you guys will get another little peek at how delicious this nut butter is 14 grams is a tablespoon so i'm going to weigh out my 14 grams and i know it doesn't seem like a lot you guys but it's actually a decent amount of nut butter and you can spread that nice and evenly on a rice cake you can lick the spoon but be mindful of your portions i never lick the spoon i just go ahead and put it in the sink because that could be another half of a tablespoon or so here on the spoon look at how good that looks i have mini marshmallows i have a little chocolate bit this is everything i needed in a morning snack lunch time lunch time okay it's lunch time i'm making a ham and cheese quesadilla because it sounds amazing so i have my little flax seed wraps that i bought at sam's club i'm just going to use one folded in half make my quesadilla i have some leftover diced ham from my meal prep when i made the ham and cheese scones if you haven't seen that video i'll link that down below for you i'm going to add some light shredded cheese and then i think for a side i need to get some veggies in i'm going to do some of my cucumbers and then i bought this roasted red pepper hummus from imperfect foods oh my gosh this roasted red pepper hummus is so good it's so so good i'll link in perfect foods down below you guys there's free discount on your order so i'm going to have kukes and hummus and then i'm going to have some fresh raspberries so let's make a ham and cheese quesadilla let me see how much ham i have here that's one and a half ounces i might use all the rest of this ham let's see how much that is okay that's two and a half ounces so i have two point four ounces of the diced ham and then let's zero that out and i'm going to do the entire quarter cup which is 28 grams of the light shredded cheese okay 28 grams what i'm going to do then is just kind of slide everything over to one side of my quesadilla i like to kind of even it out a little bit so that i can easily fold over the other side for cooking i'm going to spray my skillet with some non-stick cooking spray add my quesadilla and i always like to kind of push down hoping that it will help it stick together a little bit better i'm going to spray the other side so when i flip it over it'll get nice and crispy so here is my lunch i mean can we just talk about how amazing this looks so i have my ham and cheese quesadilla my two tablespoons of hummus some cucumbers raspberries it's such a colorful beautiful plate i have my water i'll go ahead and pop calories protein points here on the screen for you and i cannot wait to dig in quesadilla taste test the ham and the cheese got so crispy oh my gosh this is incredible i'm in my office working and Troy just texted me and is on his way home from golf he's bringing me a coffee which i'm very excited about but he was saying on the phone how sore he is if you guys didn't know even around a golf is hard for him to finish most of the weeks when he plays golf he doesn't even finish his full round he ends up just riding for the last few holes in the golf cart because it's just too hard on his body and today he said that his legs his lower back just his body in general is hurting and i told him that if he brought me home a coffee i would give him a massage because i just bought a new massage gun you know you know that i've been working out really really hard and at bootcamp i am so incredibly sore for days i mean days it starts the day i get home from bootcamp and it continues for days and days so i thought what better time than now to pick up some type of massage tool so i started doing a little bit of research and i found a youtube channel with almost five million subscribers called bob and brad they are physical therapists and they have a youtube channel dedicated to physical health and physical therapy well apparently they develop the bob and brad massage gun and this is a little compact portable massage gun that comes in a case so you can even take it for travel it was super affordable in price has

home plumber oh oh i think diesel thinks he's home too bolo's the only one that's not interested in getting up off the couch is that home oh that's home baba touch you touch you i thought you died it took so long for my coffee to arrive so Troy brought me home a coffee from Duncan all this is is an iced americano with an extra shot of espresso i'm going to pop in some of the sugar free or no sugar added peppermint mocha from coffee mate this is my favorite creamer ever like i'm obsessed with it so i'm going to put a couple tablespoons in here and i think i'm going to have a baby bell cheese yes i am i'm going to have a white cheddar baby bell cheese for a snack as well for tonight's dinner i am making a skillet pot pie with biscuits i'm actually really excited about this super super comfort food so let me show you what's in our recipe first you're going to need salt and pepper as always i'll link my gravity fed salt and pepper grinders down below we love these they're from amazon super affordable you're going to need some all-purpose flour some type of broth a small can of biscuits whole milk frozen mixed vegetables potatoes fresh celery a couple of spices parsley and thyme and onion and some chicken breast i'm going to end chop up my potatoes celery onion and chicken so i have my dutch oven over medium heat i'm going to prepare everything in a dutch oven so that we can put it into the actual oven to continue to cook so i'm going to spray the bottom really well with some non-stick cooking spray we're going to add in our diced up celery onion my little baby diced up potatoes and season it with a little bit of thyme and then using a wooden spoon we're going to stir consistently while these start to cook and soften we're going to season our mixture with some salt and pepper add in a quarter cup of flour and then stir to get everything coated in the flour we're going to stir until our flour is cooked it's going to turn a light brown that's how we know that the raw flour is cooked so we want to stir continuously until that is done and everything is coated really well in that cooked flour then we're going to add two and a half cups of broth and a quarter cup of whole milk grab out your whisk and whisk that until it starts to thicken from the flour then we're going to add in our frozen mixed vegetables about a cup and a half total and then parsley whether you use dried or fresh give that a stir we're going to actually allow it to come to a boil and that will allow the mixture to thicken completely go ahead and add in your diced up chicken and that will cook partially as well while it's boiling now we're going to take our can of biscuits and we're going to add those right to the top and i went ahead and mixed up my egg and we're going to just brush them with an egg wash that'll get them nice and brown and crispy we're throwing our dutch oven into a 400 degree oven and we're going to allow it to cook for about 25 minutes we want the biscuits to be golden brown and of course make sure that our chicken and potatoes are cooked all the way through there she is doesn't that look delicious i did throw the top on my dutch oven for about the last 10 minutes or so this looks so good i'm going to go ahead and serve it up and i'll be back to share points calories macros and protein so here is my dinner i decided to go ahead and only have one biscuit and just focus on all the chicken and there's potatoes in there as well i'll go ahead and put everything here on the screen for you but this is tonight's dinner so for dessert tonight i'm making protein pudding i've been loving this lately it's been a really good way for me to get in protein finish out my day strong with protein it is actually the best thing to have prior to going to bed so i've been utilizing this a lot as dessert i've been making all types of concoction so if you guys want to see more protein pudding recipes let me know down in the comments and i'll include them a little bit more in what i eat in a day's but this one that i'm going to make tonight is one of my all-time favorites there's different ways to make protein pudding as well maybe we could do a whole video on protein pudding definitely let me know down in the comments what you guys want to see but tonight i'm going to make a chocolate fudge cookie protein pudding so you're going to need three simple ingredients a protein shake of your choice i'm going to use fairlife chocolate since i want this to be very chocolate and then you'll need some sugar-free jello i'm opting for the chocolate fudge sugar-free jello and then i like to once my pudding is set i like to add in something for some crunch something for some added sweetness so we're going to use these chips ahoy dessert toppings and i'm going to stir a couple tablespoons of these in with my finished pudding so you want to make sure that you make this about a half an hour or so before you eat it so that your pudding has time to set up in the fridge so let me show you it is so so simple to make so you're going to pour your entire protein shake in a bowl and you want to use a pretty good size bowl because this makes a lot and then for the pudding there's multiple recipes like i said out there i find what works best for a really good consistency for the pudding is about two tablespoons of sugar-free pudding mix i've seen some people put a whole pack in there and i feel like that's just way too much way too thick so i like to do just two tablespoons and then just mix that together mix it really well you want to make sure all that pudding mixture is mixed in with your protein shake put the lid on it and throw it in the fridge for about a half of an hour i also wanted to mention that one of my favorite ways to mix the pudding in really well with the protein shake is to use one of these little handheld frothers i just buy mine off of amazon i'll link a good affordable one down below for you thank you for
