A Culinary Adventure: My Gluten-Free Delights from Aldi!
Charlotte Rose oh the W you are wall breakfast three points veggies made grap muffin and water and I am late and.
Running out the door can you tell all right we’re here for a proper introduction this time hello my name is Amy and I am currently on a weight loss journey I am following ww I get 23 points a day 28 weeklys and um I have celiac disease so everything that I eat has to be gluten-free and today’s video is a what.
I eat in a day SL I now have a mini Aldi haul for you um I decided to do what I eat in a day today because I went in today with absolutely zero plans I have no food prepped and this channel is my accountability partner um to keep me on track with my late weight loss goals and um and because of that I wanted to make sure that I was on track because I have.
A tendency to girl lunch girl dinner girl whatever what I eat and it’s not always the best decisions and best choice um and so when I do this it holds me accountable um and so anyway the I saw this morning that I had the veggies made great little muffin um for three points delicious had that in the car and.
My appointment for this morning ran shorter than what I thought so that enabled me to go to the grocery store because I’m out of like some fresh vegetables it’s a long weekend and so um I wanted to have some things on hand and I also wanted something delicious and healthy for lunch than running through the drive-thru or girl lunching it so.
Right now I’ll show you my little mini Ali haul oh I also wanted to share this morning I hit a big milestone I am officially down 10 lbs on Weight Watchers I started Weight Watchers uh the end of December um and it’s been not not too bad of a journey honestly like the first 5 lbs came off.
Pretty easily but my diet was super strict back then I have um I have some previous videos if you’re interested in learning about that journey I did a whole um uh uh uh uh Amy think here what did I do an Elimination Diet that’s what I did so I basically ate vegetables and Whole Foods and it was really good I highly.
Recommend anyone doing it but my journey is on my channel if you want to go back and watch those so I lost I think 7 or 8 lbs doing that I lost 7 or 8 lbs doing that um last year and then um the past couple have been just doing Weight Watchers and um being accountable for what I’m eating so I’m altogether down 17.
Lb in the past year I’m down 17 lb um and 10 of those have been with Weight Watchers so um yeah I think I I’m happy with my results um so far and I’m feeling good and I just want to continue on so I did want to share that little bit because it happened this morning and I’m just excited all right now my Aldi haul okay.
I spent $4.72 at Aldi and I got some really good things for that price actually to be honest uh this was one of the main reasons I wanted to go I had no greens and I am in desperate need of greens I like to put this in every sort of meal that I have um any way that I can I want to get the greens in so I just picked.
Some of those up um I picked up some zucchini for the grill I picked up some Meats to grill so I’m really excited about those um I picked up some corn that looked good and I haven’t had any at this season so I’m looking forward to that and then cherry tomatoes I think here it is um I’m going to do like a cucumber.
Cherry tomato feta I think I have some feta left um salad so there’s that I’m up obsessed with grapes red and green make them crunchy uh delicious love them so I picked some grapes and then these strawberries actually looked really good the strawberries were only like.
$189 so I picked up one of those and then bell peppers they’re always a go-to and then I wanted some mozzarella cheese so in my last video that I did I um had my first dabble into ingredient.
Dough and now I’m on a mission to make things with two ingredient dough I want to do like um like pizza pocket type things with two ingredient dough so that was my purpose for getting the mozzarella cheese um almond milk this is my milk of choice it’s only 30 calories per cup and it’s if you up to a cup is zero points so.
This is what I use in my coffee I go through it pretty fast um it’s the cheapest at Aldi it’s like $2 and some change and that’s just what we choose to drink um now for Meats I got this grassfed ground beef patties I’m craving a hamburger so instead of going well it’s hard for me to go to a fast food.
Place and get hamburgers anyway like if I were to do that it would have been Five Guys Burger and Fries and gotten like a hamburger bowl and then all the french fries and I would eat all the french fries so instead I got these grass-fed burgers that I’m just going to grow myself a burger and make a nice I think.
Cucumber tomato salad to go on the side um maybe even an ear of corn don’t know but so I picked those up which I’m happy about and then this I got a rack of ribs for $818 it’s probably not the most uh Weight Watchers friendly I have no idea but been kind of craving ribs I have no idea how I’m going to make them if I’m.
Going to grill them or if I’m going to put them in the crock pot and I would tell you to drop your rib recipe below but I’m going to eat these before I post it but you can still drop your rib recipe below and let me know what do you do with your ribs cuz I’m like like a novice I think I’ve maybe made Grill uh ribs like one.
Or two times but it’s it’s Memorial Day weekend and so I want ribs and so that’s all I got for $40 I feel like grass-fed hamburger patties four of them a whole rack of ribs alone is like $40 and I got a lot of fresh vegetables and fruit so this is going to help keep me on track to hopefully when I do my May recap video I.
Might be down more than the 10 lbs that’s the hope I’m on a mission okay uh it is lunchtime so I’m going to put all this away and then I’m going to start getting my hamburger together I’m not going to show you any of that but um I’ll show you when I’m ready I forgot I also picked up some almond butter um.
Because I wanted to make like a sweet I told you I was obsessed with the two ingredient dough so I wanted to make some sort of sweet little thing with bananas and almond butter in a two ingredient dough contraction so that’s why I got almond butter but that’s it $40 not bad all right I just prepped my cucumber tomato.
Red onion salad and I just used some olive oil and um red wine vinegar in there mixed it up and I put some salt and pep and I may or may not put this avocado in there don’t know or feta but I have to use that avocado so I’m going to use that avocado either on the burger or this probably this we’ll put that on like later okay now I’m going to go prep.
The grill start that get the burger ready all right this is what we’re making for lunch we’ve got our grass-fed Patty I just did the math these are eight points for a Patty but all in moderation and then I I am going to put it on this little um this is a live.
Gluten-free um It’s actually an English muffin they call it from uh Aldi and that is Five Points so this is my it will be like a 13 point or 14 Point meal I don’t know whatever it’s fine everything’s fine but I just want to show you this is what we are making oh and I also have corn on the cob that I’ve already started on I just.
Put it right on the grill so that’s already on there and then I’m going to go add the burger now and I will show you the full meal well this is my lunch and I’ll put on the screen the points I don’t remember what I calculated it’s either 13 or 14 but we have the 8020 burger patty there’s 4 oz of ground beef there.
Grass-fed this is our Aldi English muffin that’s five points that I put it on the grill I have Charlotte Rose hey sorry that’s my cat ruining my carpet uh and then I have homemade jalapenos that I’m going to put on the burger and I put have some on the side this delicious salad it’s olive oil I showed.
You whatever little SA and then I grilled up some corn and I have an orange creamsicle bubbly which this flavor right here is chef’s kiss so good all right hungry going to eat we are feeling snacky so I have this if I can get it uh lesser evil Himalayan salt popcorn it’s made with coconut oil so good and.
This whole bag is two points so I’m just going to snap on this until it’s time for dinner it is dinner time and I’m craving some pasta one because it’s easy and two I haven’t had it in a while um but I have this hearts of palm Linguini that is a zero point pasta um and since I had this the hamburger for lunch which was a.
Little bit a higher point I wanted to keep tonight’s dinner a little bit lower so this is 0o points and then I’m also I’m feeling lazy and I don’t have sauce made um but this is the next best option you guys this is the best pasta sauce this whole jar is $1.99 too so it’s cheap it’s good ingredients and it’s good and you can have a/2 cup of this.
For a point so it’s very Weight Watchers friendly so what else am I going to have because I have points to use I’m in my two ingredient dough era if you will so I’m going to make some um air fried garlic knots or just balls because who has who has time to tie it in a knot um I’ve never made this I’m going to.
Loosely follow a recipe um but I did make in a previous video my first attempt at um two ingredient dough and and I made like I thought I was making a peita but it was really just like a flat Patty of dough but it was like a piece of bread and it was so good so now I’m on a mission to make all different kinds of things with two ingredient dough so I.
Figured garlic knots would be delicious and easy to make into little balls and then just put them in the air fryer and um good with this right the only thing I might make a side salad as well because we bought that lettuce today maybe I’ll just actually add some of like the spinach into the sauce that might be good um I don’t have a protein.
But that’s fine there’s protein in the Greek yogurt in my dough balls so I’m going to whip this together and then I’ll show you when I’m done cuz it’s it’s just too it’s just too hard to show here is dinner um also in full transparency I cooked the hearts of palm noodles and.
The sauce with the spinach and the microwave yeah I just didn’t see a point to pull out pans and cook it so in the microwave it went and then I also took out some um o it’s steaming I took out some of my little um salad that I made this morning and this is my Garlic Knot I have uh no idea what to expect.
With this I kind of made it up I did it in the air fryer and um I put some garlic powder in there and Italian seasonings a little bit of salt I sprayed the top with olive oil and then I also just put parmesan cheese on top of everything so I think this total meal here is like seven points so it’s not too bad and should be pretty decent.
Honestly like these these noodles I need to get them more often because for zero points and something that you can just cook in the microwave like that’s an easy peasy like no- Grainer all right I’ll let you know how it is here’s what the inside of my dough ball looks like I probably could have.
Cooked it a little bit longer but it was just crunchy on the outside um the inside just needs a little bit more so I guess I need to work on the formation of my balls but uh they’re okay I mean I think I could also used some more garlic powder inside of them to give them that more garlicky flavor the noodles are good I also.
Forgot to mention that I used half the pouch so I still have half the pouch left and I did only use a half2 cup of sauce um anyway sorry back to eating I write that dinner about 6 and 1 half out of 10 I need to perfect those two ingredient dough garlic knots because I’m sure they.
Could be pretty good and it’s nice to have like a piece of bread with some pasta every now and again uh but overall I mean it was vegetable forward so that was good and um with that I have four points left of my 23 for the day and I am going to have I have two macaron maons left uh.
French macaroons from Costco they’re so good uh pistachio and I think it’s salted caramel left uh and they are six points for two and I am going to enjoy those and watch some sex in the city and call it a day so I think I finished the day with 25 out of the 23 points which is not too bad I am happy with that I feel good uh.
I did go for a walk today and um yeah hoping to let this last week of May and really continue to lose the weight uh cuz I feel good with hitting my 10 points down but anyway okay I’m rambling again and thank you so much for watching I appreciate you um I’ll see you in the next one bye
