Happy Hump Day! It is a beautiful rainy day over here, today. It was cute…while Keenan and I were walking out of the library and to our car this morning, he said, “It smells like water!” It had just rain and I couldn’t believe that he said that! I’ve said it smells like rain before, but I didn’t think he understood it. It is amazing what kids absorb!
Speaking of kids, Keenan slept all through the night last night! It was so nice to not be woken up. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that we can get through this phase and he can get back on track with his usual sleep habits…
Anyhow, since it is Wednesday, it is time to link up with Jenn at Peas and Crayons for What I Ate Wednesday!
Here are my eats from today:
Breakfast:
Leftover pancakes that we made last week, using a multi-grain mix from Trader Joe’s that my mother-in-law gave us. I added flaxseed, chia seeds, egg protein powder and dried blueberries to the mix to enhance the nutrition! I was craving almond butter when I woke up this morning, so I spread it on my pancake, added a few banana slices and a drizzle of honey, along with fresh berries on the side, YUM!
My lovely morning latte!
Lunch:
A random “cooked” cobb salad of baby spinach, tomatoes, avocado, turkey, pepperoncinis, pasta sauce and a one microwaved egg. It was good!
Pre-workout snack (later today):
Half of a Raw Walnut Banana CORE Foods Defender Bar.
Dinner:
Tonight, we are having one of our favorites that is nice and easy, Mediterranean Chicken in the Crock Pot over spaghetti squash!
Oh, and as promised, here is our Salmon Burger recipethat we made last Friday night. They were delicious and we will definitely be making them again!
Have a great afternoon!
Questions:
– What is one thing that you ate today?
– What is on your menu for dinner tonight?
Oooh that salmon burger looks and sounds delicious! We’ve made tuna burgers but never salmon burgers. I can’t wait for warmer weather and outdoor grilling! Hope you had a great Wednesday!
I know, I’m SO ready for Spring and Summer to be here to start grilling! Once the weather is warmer, we pretty much grill most of our dinners.
That salad looks delish and so do the pancakes 🙂
Thank you!
A new Whole Foods opened in our area, so we went to check it out today after work. They had a fabulous sale on lobster! So we splurged, and bought some for dinner tonight. It was delicious! The salmon burger looks fabulous . . . I’m going to check out that recipe. 🙂
Mmm…lobster sounds wonderful! I’m jealous! 🙂
I made some cabbage rolls tonight with a little twist. Inside was ground turkey, onion, zucchini, quinoas, a little curry powder, and some hard boiled egg. All that was stuffed inside cabbage leaves and then topped with some masala simmer sauce I got from Trader Joe’s. It was delicious!
Ooh, that sounds good! I just read your comment to Drew and he said, “Nice!” We haven’t made cabbage rolls in a long time, but I think I might add them to our menu plan for next week!
Yes you should. They turned out so yummy and we haven’t had any in a long time. I happened to make them because I got two large green cabbages in my farm fresh box. I think I am going to make some more this weekend and try doing a Mexican style one with a little enchilada sauce.
I just bought some cabbage, so we are going to make the rolls sometime this week. I was thinking of keeping them Asian, but now, Mexican sounds really good!
