Member Detox Blog- Day 19 & 20

DAY 19
Ate at Couscous tonight and it wasn’t as good as I’d remembered. Bummer. I was also really limited in what I could eat because a lot of Middle Eastern food is made with tomatoes. The tomato thing is actually really limiting. Frustrating.

DAY 20
Made a super-delicious dinner tonight. Most of my super-delicious dinners involve roasted sweet potatoes and I tend to eat about half the tray immediately after I take it out of the oven, so I’m almost too stuffed to eat anything else. This is a common occurrence. This time, I made room for the main course – baked orange roughy – because it was simple and yummy.

During recipe Googling, I found out that orange roughy is overfished, so I probably won’t make this again, but will use the same technique for tilapia and other more sustainable white fish. (I hate finding out that favorite fish are in danger of extinction, but I have a terrible guilt complex about eating them once I know they are. Makes it hard to enjoy them, so what’s the point?)
