Thursday

Cauliflower rice topped with Saag and Chicken (grilled or throw some chicken breasts & a little seasoning in the Instant Pot & press poultry). Used just a little spinach, a large bunch of mustard greens and a 1 lb bag of collard greens. This meal was amazing. Filling without being a gut bomb. Topped saag with a tiny bit Greek yogurt and ghost pepper salt.
