what i ate wednesday: issue 74


 Figure 1. Breakfast AKA my bowl of slop: puffed wheat + All Bran + cocoa powder + banana + milk.

Figure 2. Morning snack: cottage cheese, applesauce, slivered almonds, and cinnamon.

Figure 3. Lunch: Amy's frozen vegetable korma on top of raw spinach.

Figure 4. Lunch dessert: a slim-fast snack bar, double-dutch chocolate. Judge away, if you want, but these are 100 calories of candy bar goodness that satisfy my ever-present and raging sweet tooth without too much caloric damage.

Figure 5. Dinner: baked chicken topped with leftover red pepper pesto, roasted eggplant, and leftover polenta.

 Figure 6. Dessert: 130 calorie chocolate peanut butter mug cake topped with whipped cream. Delicious!

And that concludes another What I Ate Wednesday (featuring what I ate Monday, March 26).

  5. Happy WIAW! Your chocolate peanut butter mug cake looks great. I think having a low-cal go-to sweet snack is a wonderful way to beat those cravings that get us all. :-)

  7. Definitely feeling you on the raging sweet tooth. Can you believe that I've never had a mug cake? I'm thinking it's a bandwagon I might have to jump on because they sound like such quick and easy doughy snacks to make...

  8. Oh, your morning snack bowl is right up my alley and I can't remember the last time I had slivered almonds usually opting for almond butter. Might need to remedy that soon.
    I hope your injury's healing well and you're doing better!

  10. Oh my goodness...I'm making that mug cake ASAP. Chocolate & peanut butter is my ultimate weakness.
    And no judgements on the slim fast bars! I have a bar of some sort almost every day too- the Clif Z bars are my current favorite!

  13. No judgment here; different strokes for different folks right. I love your roasted veggies and your chocolate mug cake. I have a raging sweet too as well, more like a full mouth full of them. :)
