I forgot to tell you yesterday that when I drank the other night, my first drink tasted like grass. Sergio and I thought it would be a good idea to put mashed up kiwi in our vodka sodas since we didn’t have lime. It wasn’t a good idea. At all. It smelled like I was taking a wheat grass shot but tasted like vodka. How in the hell is that any fun whatsoever?
Anywho, I need to get my life together. I drank alcohol like I was in college over the weekend. But didn’t black out! GO ME! Then consumed most likely a half pound of dark chocolate M&M’s that Laura got me from the M&M store in New York. They were dark chocolate raspberry, people!! HOW THE HELL WAS I SUPPOSE TO STAY AWAY? Then I fell asleep on the couch. I’m just kind of a mess. Have I fallen off the band wagon? Is every single one of my cellulite dimples about to appear? Too late for that. But I’m down with it. This month has officially become ‘do whatever you effing want JB’ month. And I’m super happy with it. I had M&M’s for breakfast for gosh sakes. Then waffles later. Sh*t yeah there are going to be waffles on the website this week!!
But I think I am actually almost back to normal. I kind of hated working out last week. Just because my body ached and chocolate seemed like a better option. Dark chocolate never strains my back. But now I like working out again. And being in the gym. Thank gosh since it’s my job and all. I’m officially SO excited to train for next years Regionals. Maybe I’ll try incorporating dark chocolate raspberry M&M’s in my daily breakfast routine. Seems like a good idea to me.

- 14oz US Wellness Meats Skirt Steak

Instructions
- First make your roasted red pepper avocado spread. Place all ingredients in a food processor. Blend. Place in bowl to refrigerate and chill out.
- Now place a large skillet under medium heat and get that b*tch extra hot.
- While the skillet is heating up, salt and pepper both sides of your steak and press dried basil and oregano into the steak.
- Place steak in skillet and cook on both sides for 8-10 minutes or until cooked through to your preference.
- While the steak is cooking, chop your veggies.
- Once steak is done, place on cooking board to rest.
- Add your onions directly to the leftover steak fat with a sprinkle of salt and cover to help cook down, mixing around at times to make sure the onions don’t burn.
- Once your onions are caramelized, 6-8 minutes, remove and place in bowl.
- Now add your red bell pepper and mushrooms, add a bit more salt and cover to let cook down for 3-5 minutes.
- Once your veggies are done cooking, thinly slice your steak (or chop) and add to your pan, along with onions and mix together.

Notes
There are no eggs in the picture because I didn’t want eggs. And I play by my own rules.

YUM. You make me wanna eat more meat.
No Eggs! You are such a crazy lady. I’m looking all over the recipe and pics for the stupid EGGS? Where are they? Like a scavenger hunt.
I’m thinking that looks so YUMMY, but it just doesn’t look like there are eggs anywhere.
Then I get to the notes…. your own rules?….. silly girl, you are making the rules…. I think so you can break them?
Juli never fails to entertain. LOVE IT!
Haha I was looking for the eggs too!
Duuuuude! Blackberry pork chops were uh-may-zing! That is all.
I am pretty sure that I am going to make the red pepper avocado spread and just eat it with a spoon! Seriously, this looks like the shiz, I will be eating it soon. Juli- question- how did you learn to cook? Just by experimenting, or did you actually go to school for it? JW because I SUCK at cooking!
OMG, I am still so psyched about your regionals experience! Don’t forget how you rocked it while feeling not so great about the M&M’s! Yes. Rocked. It. So exciting! I’m inspired.
You are like watching a train wreck…
…not an ordinary bad train wreck, but a beautiful train wreck…(which seems a little oxymoronic…or at least paradoxical…oh oh oh, maybe it’s enigmatic)…
…where no one gets hurt…well, no one gets hurt badly, at least…and everyone is smiling
Anyhow, good luck with that M&M diet revolution. I can’t wait to read the eventual obligatory book. You’ll be rich!
Did you just call me a train wreck?? I hate it when you’re right. Thankfully I didn’t understand half the words you used in your comment so I’m taking it as all positive feedback.
Oh, c’mon, admit it…you didn’t understand what I said because you were so distracted by my stunningly good looks. No worries…that happens to me a lot…but back off, I’m taken.
And yes, I meant every word I said in a positive way…well, most of them at least.
I’m a low carb vegetarian….love your website….have found some great recipes to convert….
Love your sense of humor…..keep on rockin it lady!!!
Have loved the –
sweet potatoe brownies
fudgy brownies
meat balls nested in spaghetti squash thingies
curried meatballs…..
Yum!!!
I totally had an M&M’s for breakfast kind of week too…you’re not alone. I feel like it’s totes OK to wile out after Regionals…my excuse was a birthday, graduation, and moving. Now it’s back to the real world…the bloated, chubby, real world. Goooo meat!
Looks delicious! I also play by my own rules…I’m thinking poached egg! BOOM! P.S. Thanks for tweeting me back yesterday @bruinpanda – made my day!
