Figure 1. Breakfast: a bowl of Kashi GoLean Original mixed with Cascadian Farm Organic French Vanilla Almond granola, 1/2 sliced banana, and almond milk. (Before this I had an un-photographed 1/2 banana and coffee).
Figure 2. Lunch: my current salad obsession continues. A green spinach and green romaine lettuce base with grape tomatoes, green bell peppers, green cucumber, chopped dates, peanuts, hummus, and balsamic vinegar. Have you tried salad combination yet?
Figure 3. Afternoon snack: a Pink Lady apple and almonds.
Figure 4. Dinner: organic shells and cheddar cheese and two hard-boiled eggs on a bed of roasted green cabbage. Just so you know, hard-boiled eggs yolks mixed with melty mac & cheese is delicious.
Figure 5. Dessert: dark chocolate pudding and almond butter. And that concludes another What I Ate Wednesday (featuring what I ate Monday, March 5).
Salad obsessions never stop. Happy WIAW!
ReplyDeleteThat pudding looks amazing!! Did you make it?
ReplyDeleteno, didn't make it (that does sound ambitious!) it is just jello sugar free dark chocolate pudding. super easy and only 60 calories!
DeleteYUMMY pudding!
ReplyDeleteI definitely learned something new today: hard boiled egg and mac & cheese. Who knew!
ReplyDeletesometimes the strangest combinations are the most beautiful
DeleteI love roasted cabbage, and hard boiled eggs, so that dinner looks soooo great!!!
ReplyDeleteyour dinner and dessert look amazing!! i'm going to have to try adding hard boiled eggs to mac n cheese - it sounds delicious!!
ReplyDeleteit really is surpringly great. let me know if you try the combination! the more egg yolk the better!
DeleteOh wow.. that dessert! I am going to try that tonight :)
ReplyDeletetessa - it is the most perfect balance between a little chocolate (although this is sugar free so it isn't that big of a deal!) and protein to keep you satisfied. let me know if you try it!
DeleteI'm having dinner envy but I'm a runny yolk kinda girl so I want to try it with with soft boiled eggs and a sprinkle of parmesan cheese. Oh the possibilities. Thanks for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteyou know, i typically eat runny eggs myself. but for some reason i love the hard boiled combo with the mac and cheese. but, i'm sure runny would be great too!
DeleteOK, your dinner and dessert sound heavenly. I love the idea of the eggs melting with the mixed cheese - and almond butter WITH chocolate pudding? Ooooh so good, I have to try that!
ReplyDeleteyes please try the dessert anna. really it will change your life. let me know if you try it!
DeleteEverything looks so gooood!! Yum! Your salad looks especially enticing right now (time for "first lunch" over here!) What is "salad combination"? I'd love to try it. Thanks!!
ReplyDeletesalad combination just means a simple salad paired with the combination of chopped dates, peanuts, plain hummus, and basalmic vinegar. it is really fantastic!
DeleteHard boiled egg and mac and cheese, interesting...
ReplyDeleteI'm gonna have to try out that combo! I've never thought to roast cabbage, but I guess it would be like brussels sprouts and I'm obsessed with those.
it sounds scary - but it delicious. and yes, roast your cabbage - it will change your life.
DeleteThat dessert looks lovely! Though I don't think I ever had Jello!
ReplyDeleteYour post also reminded me I forgot my apple for my late morning snack lol :(
you've never had jello? you certainly must not be from the states (ha i guess not you must be french!) go get that apple now!
DeleteHummus seems to be the new salad "dressing" of choice! Also, your dessert looks amazing. Love the chocolate/almond butter combo.
ReplyDeletecan't beat a salad dressing complete with protein and healthy fat!
DeleteYour dessert looks incredible. What a great combo
ReplyDeleteI am drooooling over your dessert.
ReplyDeleteAnd I will try that date salad if it kills me
do it katie! i can't wait to hear how you like it!
DeleteI want that dinner! I love adding hard boiled eggs to salads ... because I'm an egg junkie, and I really dig the texture (and added protein!). Plus, the phrase "cheddar cheese" jumped out at me in the caption ;)
ReplyDeletehaha you can't go wrong with cheese. and i'm becoming more and more of an egg junkie with each day myself!
DeleteI always forget about adding hard boiled eggs to salad. So yummy. And roasting green cabbage sounds awesome. Darn these WIAW, just making me hungry.
ReplyDeletewhen you roast green cabbage it turns all sweet and yummy. give it a try!
Deletethat pudding looks so sinful even though it's only 60 calories! I love it :D
ReplyDeleteyep! 60 calories of goodness right there! well plus the almond butter but that is healthy!
DeleteEggs with mac-n-cheese sounds yummy! Happy WIAW!
ReplyDeletehey babe! yes, it is a great combination....happy wiaw to you too.
DeleteThe pudding looks so good - I never thought to mix choc pudding wiht almond butter... how silly!
ReplyDeleteright? after thinking about it it seems like such the obvious combination. it is a wonder i haven't been eating this all my life..
DeleteGreat eats for the day! :)
ReplyDeletethanks, brandi!
DeleteAll of your eats look so good! Especially the salad! I'm thinking of fixing up something similar for myself asap! And I LOVE the idea of putting almond butter in pudding. I've never thought of that!
