Can’t Miss the Freebies!
Happy Wednesday!! Before you know it weekend is around the corner!
Today was such a good day because: our department provided FREE LUNCH from Chipotle! As a typical thrift Asian, I wouldn’t want to miss this!
But I still keep everything as primal/paleo as possible – no rice, beans, tortilla and soybean oil.
After reading Nom Nom Paleo’s Chipotle post, I opted for Salad bowl with carnitas (the only meat that’s not cooked in soybean oil) with mild tomato salsa, sour cream on side (company didn’t cover guacamole..FAIL). So I got my veggies, protein and some fat.
Apparently they were super stingy on the sour cream!
Good thing I prepared my Coconut Milk Dressing. Got my healthy fat intake!
Benefit of free lunch?
I could have my packed lunch as my breakfast instead! 😀
The beauty of eating Primal= There’s almost no difference between lunch/dinner/breakfast anymore! 😀
Except when I made this Almond Pancake
Slathered with cheese spread
Not paleo/primal standard but hey gotta loosen up a bit sometimes!
I love this Président brand! It’s from France and cheaper than Laughing Cow. It’s not that salty and very mild taste. My wallet and I surely love it!
I admit, I do miss this ever since I’ve gone Primal – no bread, crackers etc. But my Almond Pancake surely could satisfy my cravings of any gluten/grain stuff.
Anyway, remember the chicken dish I made on Sunday?
I “re-purposed” it to become “quiche” = b-fast food!
Super easy, just add one beaten egg and bake for 20 mins in oven 350°F.
So no need to get sick of eating same thing over and over. Vary it a bit! 😀
Also in this b-fast I had today – topped with the sauce from the Indonesian Beef Stew – YUM! Plus the last drop of Unsweetened Almond Breeze.
Freebies from iHerb!!
Artisana Raw Coconut Butter and Artisana Raw Cacao Bliss.
I’ve heard sooo much raves about coconut butter and when I saw iHerb provided these samples (just need to pay shipping) I instantly ordered them!

iHerb also included Madre-C sample.
Perfect timing! So many people sick at work now and I have to boost up my Vit C! Figuratively speaking, I was breathing germs in and out at the office for 8 hours- 5 working days!! Ugh, bless my immune system! I know Leashieloo and Jessica catch a cold. Hang in there, girls!
Do you differentiate your food for breakfast/lunch/dinner?
I used to, but not anymore 🙂
Favorite cheese spread?
Have you received any freebies?
Compared to other food bloggers, I don’t think I’ve received as many freebies as them. But I don’t sweat it though it feels nice to receive free stuff.hehe..especially food related.
