Whole30: Back on track

Still dealing with an upset system, so today was back to business as usual (whole30 being usual that is)
Another thing I noticed, that since yesterday and today the inside of my nose is completely raw again and covered with bloody crusts (sorry!) This was always a problem for me, along with getting spontaneous nose bleeds at any given time, once a week or more. Those went away during the whole30, but it's safe to say now that dairy plays a major role in this.

Started the day with bacon, eggs, some sweet potato, avocado and a few straw- & blueberries.
Some fresh chives on top, awesome!



Stayed home today, since I still have no trust in my body ambushing me at inconvenient times...

My partner made a small omelet with ham, a bowl of fruit/nuts with coconut milk & one of the rolls with a small spread of vegemite.



Next meal was the vegetable medley from last night, with 3 merguez sausages & avocado.








Before my workout, I decided that I needed some extra fuel to get through, so had a coconut roll with some cashew butter (pic here)
Not totally compliant, but it did give me that extra boost I needed. 
After the workout I had a boiled egg.

For dinner, I wanted to make it a bit special, since we picked up 2 tuna steaks at a popular market in Amsterdam. We also got the swordfish from there that was really good.

First recipe was for spinach balls, original found here. I used half of the recipe and ended up with 10 balls. Instead of marjoram I used chervil. They came out a bit dry, but I think I just left them in the oven a bit too long.

For the tuna, I rinsed the steaks first, then patted them dry with a paper towel, sprinkled salt, pepper & olive oil on both sides and let them sit to come to room temperature. When it was time too cook them, I first heated olive oil, 1 tsp of coriander powder and the zest of 1 lemon together and let it infuse for a bit. Then put the steaks in and cooked them on medium heat for about 4 mins on each side.
Served with some leak, broccoli & a salad.
