That omelet sounds delicious!

I find that on the days that I do eat I need to get a well-balanced mix. If I didn't eat as much on the dining day, or if I didn't get as many veggies versus more carbs, I feel kind of tired on the fasting day.

This time of year I am able to start harvesting in the garden, and though it was put in late, I still have some stuff that wintered over well. I'm eating Swiss chard now, and it versatile. It has a flavor and consistency like spinach if it is cut up and steamed, but it is sturdy enough that I can cut it into strip and add it to vegetable soups near the end of cooking, or use the stems in stir fry. For tomorrow I'm planning to make a batch of rice (in the steamer) and then use chard and the usual vegetables, plus some cut up pork or chicken, to make a batch of stir fry rice. It reheats well for lunch or can have other things spooned over (beef and broccoli, etc.).
