🥣 DAILY MEAL HIGHLIGHTS
Just Eat June – 30 Days of Intuitive Eating
[No Tracking/Calories/Measuring]

DAY 15
I tinkered throughout the day with a couple of preps:

💮 PICKLED ONIONS
(to replace my spilled jar 😁)
I make them a bit different each time depending on what I have on hand but here is a good general recipe.

This time I used:
2c White Vinegar (use ACV or Rice Vinegar if you want a milder taste)
¾c water
⅓c Light Brown Sugar (or use white sugar, alternative sweeteners, honey, maple syrup)
1tbsp Himalayan Pink Salt
Rainbow Peppercorns


🐟 I also made a new batch of Dashi Broth
(Japanese Fish Soup Stock)

🍒 Pitted Cherries and deseeded a big beautiful Pomegranate for this week’s fruit salad

🍓 FRUIT SALAD

Green Seedless Grapes
Ranier Cherries
Blueberries
Strawberries
Kumquats
Raspberries
Pomegranate

🥚 I’m going to try making PICKLED EGGS!
I saved the pickled beet juice and some extra pickling liquid from the onions and am going to give this a try.

I cooked the eggs in the Instant Pot

Cooled, peeled and put in the pickling liquid… We’ll see how it goes!

▪️ Eat as I normally would (whole food focus) allowing for additional things I may not usually pay the points for out of principle 😁
▪️ Make first meal of the day the largest (in case I don’t feel like eating in the evening)
▪️ Prep salad toppings for ease of putting together a Superfood Salad + protein for dinner 5 nights / week
