Wife was homesick so I made Lechon. Didn’t have butchers twine so Dr Google said to use roped up aluminum foil. It worked

Although I post a lot of “foodie” food this is what I try to eat for lunch most days. I’m not much of a day eater and prefer to have my big meal at night so I eat light for lunch and no breakfast. Full fat yogurt, frozen berry blend, pumpkin seeds and cacao nibs.

That looks delicious!
Your schedule very closely follows the one I have. I do have a solid breakfast, however. And lunch usually consists of a light snack (leftovers from earlier in the week, or something my mom picks up from the store that she sees and think I would like, fruit, protein bar). Dinner is our main meal, and the heaviest/most filling. And, sometimes, if we feel like it, we snack on something later in the evening (mixed nuts, trail mix, etc.). On the weekends, I usually tend to skip lunch, as breakfast is a little heavier than the one I have during the week, and also because I am usually out (at the gym, or getting my haircut, or grocery shopping) during the lunch hour(s). But dinner does still remain our main meal.

Hell, it's the only way I can get them to eat vegetables!

Game time snack. I’ve never had one of these until a couple weeks ago. Of course of I’ve had pb and j but never the uncrustables. A guilty pleasure right up there with eating my eggo waffles with butter from France haha
Blessing up store-bought food to make it decent is like being able to see the matrix.

It’s cold so I made Arroz Caldo. A rice porridge with chicken thigh, soft boiled egg, green onion and crispy shallots.

Store bought but you are also cooking the chicken in the stock so a little bit of both

still haven't tried the black rice I see....you like your Panda Express type of dishes huh
They don't sell that where I do my grocery shopping. I can't be bothered to make a special trip to go looking for it.

Not near enough!

any similar type of health stores in your vicinity?
There might be, there might not. That's more work than I'm willing to put in, either way.
Besides which, according to the Sprouts website, it costs $7.49 for a one-pound bag. I'm not paying seven-fifty for a pound of rice, that's preposterous.
