Lunch = leftover Thai Chicken Curry
For dinner I was craving a steak. So, even though it wasn't the organic, grass-fed variety, I had the Sam's Club filet mignon special. Now, I know that is technically not on-plan. But, I have to balance the financial needs of the family, and the need for my family to eat, against my decision to do this Whole30 thing. So, I didn't have sugar or dairy or alcohol or a real potato. I had steak, cauliflower mash, and a giant purple sweet potato with ghee. I think this follows the spirit of the plan, if not the letter of the law. And, I think that is what counts! Plus, it was gooooood!
I have no idea what the deal is with the purple potato. It tasted just like a regular sweet potato. And, it added nice color to the plate! And, it was GIGANTIC!
This was an easy, quick, weeknight meal. All I had to do was make the mash (which I could have done earlier but hadn't). The sweet potato took 8 minutes in the microwave (because it was so big). And, my husband grilled the steaks!
You can definitely have non-organic. They say to try to if you can, but if not, it doesn't mean you're off plan.
