My version. Pinterest fail.

Delish.com has great BLE recipes. They are not marketed "BLE" but they are clean eating recipes that can be easily adapted to BLE. I love avocado toast but I don't like using my breakfast grains on bread (the price on the some of the flourless bread is redunk and I would never eat it all). Anyhoo, I thought this was the perfect recipe for me since I have 4 bags of riced cauliflower taking up space in my freezer (.89 each at Aldi-huge deal..i have big dreams with one day attempting cauliflower crust pizza hence the stockpile of frozen riced cauliflower). I couldn't quite figure out how to equate a half a head of cauliflower to a bag of riced cauliflower. So I think i didn't have enough binder (egg) to make the patties. I finally got one done, but as I was cooking my eggs I got distracted and they became overcooked while my avocado was still not ripe enough to mash, so it was just diced avocados. The good news is that it tasted delish...as I expected it to since it came from Delish.com. 

"All the sugar and twice the caffeine" Seriously?!
Dinner
(P) cheese   
(V) lettuce, tomato, cucumber  
(S)   
(Ft)  mayo and avocado

I took the boys to the National Mississippi River Museum here in our hometown. It was raining, it was labor day, we were lazy all weekend because of the weather and the boys were bouncing around the house like a couple kids who had downed a 12 pack of Jolt Soda (they didn't..do they even make it anymore?). So we went down to the museum where they can touch the sting rays, watch a movie about airplanes, play in the water (which is ionic since I wouldn't let them play outside because it was raining) and see the paddlefish, catfish, Big Mama the alligator and so much more. We were there for 2 hours and I realized we needed dinner! So we got Jimmy John's...my lines got blurry.

Day 15 Summary
Good news: I finally lost 5! Next goal is 10lbs down!
Bad news: I had flour. 

Moments of truth
The sweet smell of baked bread gets me every time. Dang you Sara Lee corporate bakery with your warm bread that fills our downtown! You enchantress you! And you, Jimmy Johns with your "free smells"! I curse you! I would like to say I didn't have any chips like I would have pre-BLE...so I got that going for me.
