Friday!

Heyyyy my Friends!
Long busy day with visitors! NOT too busy to get my cardio session in.. :)

This is the loveley ladies with me who place 1st and 3rd at Gym&Co Grand Prix.  Beauties right?

Summary of my day.
Breakfast was Rye and egg (yea yea it know.. its getting old.. but I really love it!! )
Lunch was chicken salad , we dined out.
Snacked on some nuts and a yogurt! yummy!

THEN the big treat! This is one of my favourite proteins! Salmon...
This was turned into dinner - - - - - - - >

I marinated the salmon with fresh, chopped dill, pepper, salt and lemon juice.
After I put it into a very hot pan, I added few drops of Soy sauce! Let it steam for 1Ominutes.. well depending on how rare you like your fish?

With this, I served oven grilled veggies!
Chopped carrots, onions, mushrooms, bellpeppers, zuchini... spiced with paprika, salt and pepper and a table spoon of olive oil!
Voila! it was delish!

I have salmon once a week!
