If this is dieting, I'm all in! I think I finally have the hang of this Eat To Live thing. Its been almost a month, and it really is becoming my preference. I am not really craving anything too badly, although I had the good sense the other day to get out of the Christmas candy aisle...quickly! (Oh little Snickers Santas, why are you so lovely and terrible!?) Bread and pasta aren't worrying me either, especially with the new grains I'm trying. I don't even want the sprouted grain breads anymore. Bring on the produce!!! I'm holding fast to my weekend fancy coffee splurges, and I pop a bite of good chocolate in my mouth a few times a week, so I still get my sweet tooth fix.
An exciting new food I tried this week is millet. How did I not know about this? It's like couscous but apparently healthier. Yum!!!
I made a deeelicious recipe,
Curried Garbanzo Beans, and ate them over spinach and millet. Sooo good and didn't even give off a hint of "healthy" or "diet" food- just good stuff. In other news, I think I am developing arm muscles. SCORE!!!

Yay for arm muscles and double YAY for that scrumptious plate of food. I love chickpeas and I love curry, the combination is one of my favorites.
I'm all in fot chickpeas and curry as well. It's good trying new grains there are so many out there.
Millet is delicious, and I really don't cook it often enough. There's a wonderful Mexican Millet recipe in Vcon, but I don't know if it would E2L qualify.
Good to know the cravings have mostly stopped. I'm gearing up for my cleanse (and eating as much sugar as possible since I know I won't be able to eat it for a month...which is probably not a good way to go about things, but whatevs).
This looks absolutely delicious! You just inspired me to try some new recipes darling!
XOXO,
Amy
That looks dee-lish!
