Good morning and happy Tuesday to you!

Here’s another Monday In Meals post, which recaps my eats from yesterday. It wasn’t my healthiest day of eating (mostly because I’m out-of-town for 3 days this week and didn’t prep much food), but, hey, it was one of many days and today is a new day. Ok, here we go!

Decaf iced coffee with half & half and collagen

Some fun info about sourdough (from Nicole at Whole Health RD): When it comes to bread, the long fermentation process makes the gluten less irritating to the GI tract for those who like to enjoy it occasionally. (An interesting theory: The use of dough conditioners to reduce the fermentation time is one of the reasons so many people have issues with gluten.) If you combine sourdough with some fat, it makes it even less irritating. Some good articles: Could sourdough bread be the answer to the gluten sensitivity epidemic? and Why I Never Eat Commercial Bread.

Potato + egg casserole (I whipped this up on Sunday afternoon using all sorts of leftovers from the fridge. In the mix: Red potatoes, tomato, spinach, zucchini, ricotta, Jarlsberg, and eggs. I just layered the veggies + cheese, poured whisked eggs over, and then baked it in the oven for 50 minutes.)
