I'm stuck with a peanut butter sandwich today because most of what I have at home has meat in it. I can't just have pasta since there's no protein in that. If it weren't for the snow, I'd go to Subway and get a tuna hoagie but the roads and nasty and I'd waste my whole lunch break getting there and back. Ugh.
I meant to make hard boiled eggs last night but I fell asleep on the couch and it never happened. Oh well.
Re: GD & Lent are not good friends!
Thanks! I'll have to try that. I wonder if I can make them in the toaster oven at work?
Yes, you're right...and I wouldn't sacrifice baby's health...but it's hard when I'm usually a very strict follower of the Lenten rules (up until a few years ago, I went even further by fasting for a full 24 hours on fasting days instead of eating the one meal that's allowed). As long as I can figure out a way to get my protein and stick within my numbers, I'm trying really hard to avoid meat on Fridays.
I admire your dedication.
Maybe there are good vegetarian diabetic meals online that can point you in the right direction. Something with beans for your carb/protein.
This whole pregnancy I've been avoiding meat at the preference of beans (i.e. I get the veggie bowl at Chipotle...stuff like that). I don't know why. I'm your typical "meat & potatoes" kind of gal.
