Day 23 - Jn

Woke up way too tired cause I stayed up way too late. You'd think I would know better by now. Hopefully that means I will be in bed earlier instead of later today.

No workout- planned
Breakfast- Ham, Eggs, Blueberries, Strawberries, 50/50 OJ and Chocolate mint tea
Lunch- LO fish, salad w/ balsamic vinaigrette, LO berry dessert, ginger tea
Dinner- Wegs frozen veggies (carrots, green beans and peppers), "Greek" spiced venison roast (which made the day amazing by default. More about that here: http://jnkcmd.blogspot.com/2012/04/why-i-do-what-i-do.html), lavender tea
More food- macadamia nuts and an applesauce during class, lavender tea

Rough Recipe: "Greek" spiced roast
Original idea here: http://crockpot365.blogspot.com/2010/05/greek-spiced-spareribs-slow-cooker.html
I have no idea what consititutes Greek anything but the original names it that so I did too. Sort of. I actually measured the spice quantities too which should tell you something. You need a decent sized roast and at 4qt (ish) slow cooker. Mix together spices. Rub all over the roast. Add ~1/2c orange juice and cook on low for 6-8 hours. Serve with juices dumped on top.

Spices:
1/4 cup coconut sugar (I know. Not Whole30. Get over it) 
1 tablespoon sea salt
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon anise seeds
1 teaspoon ground mustard
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon whole black peppercorns (leave intact)
4 whole cloves (leave intact)
