Experimental Eating- Marcella

I'm trying an experiment. As I mentioned in an earlier post, I ate far more and far less strictly on our cruise and somehow dropped a bunch of fat and looked pretty ripped by the end of the week. While eating desserts and carbs and everything (whole grains and minimal refined sugars of course). In the interest of science, then, I'm attempting to mimic what and how we ate over the week. For example, yesterday's breakfast and dinner:

For breakfast we had our usual protein smoothies, then miso soup and 

Sweet Rice with Tamari Almonds and Steamed Kale

Dinner was a salad with:

Sprouted Corn Tortilla Chips and  Fresh Salsa

Broccoli Cream Soup

Okara "Crab" Cakes and Vegan Tartar Sauce

We ate in courses instead of the usual piling everything on one plate and wolfing it down. Eating slowly and mindfully is never a bad idea. The crab cake recipe can be found here and as for the rest I'll post it later today. I promise.
