Thanks for the positive thoughts from Monday’s post. My back is feeling a little better after seeing my Chiropractor. I’ve been doing my best to let it rest and ice it throughout the day. I see my Chiropractor again tomorrow, followed by a massage, so I hope that will help!
Anyhow, I had planned to post a new recipe today, but some of my clients have asked what I eat in a given day, so I thought it would be good to do a typical What I Ate Wednesday post to check in on my eating.
Here is a little snapshot of my meals from yesterday…
Breakfast:
One of my favorite healthier desserts that I love to eat for breakfast, a banana bar (made with oat flour instead of almond flour), fried egg and some strawberries with a cup of coffee. The banana bar is not my typical breakfast; Keenan and I made these on Sunday for a special treat that we have been enjoying in the mornings the past few days. I usually have a bowl of oats, oat bran or no oat oatmeal, but it’s always good to change things up every now and then!
Lunch:
Salad with a pear, dried cherries, roasted walnuts and a sprinkle of feta cheese with two rolled up slices of turkey that I ate too fast for a picture!
Afternoon Snack:
Microwave Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Mug Brownie that I shared with Keenan. It’s our daily snack!
Dinner:
Chicken fajitas that I threw together with bell peppers, onions and cilantro with small corn tortillas. I completely forgot to take a picture because I was in such a rush to get dinner on the table!
Nightcap:
A glass of red wine
That’s it for today.
Also, congrats to MaryAnn Drapkin for winning the nuts ‘n more giveaway!! Please email me your contact info.
Questions:
What is one thing that you have eaten today?
Do you tend to eat the same thing everyday?
What is your daily nightcap?
Today I didn’t eat anything until about 45 minutes ago – I was busy running and hate to eat while I run!!!
My nightcap tonight is my favorite wine (Chris brings it back from a winery in Germany).
Oh, wow! I’m not sure I could go almost all day without eating! What is your favorite wine?
Your meals look delicious (and so healthy) and you do have a gift for food photography! I want to do a WIAW post on my blog but am scared to share what I eat during the day. I crave mac n’ cheese so bad this pregnancy… it’s kind of gross, but I do! I bought some “organic” stuff to at least feel a little better about myself 🙂 When I make it homemade, it just doesn’t have the same taste!
Something I ate today: banana and raspberry oatmeal with a few yogurt covered raisins on top! Plus coffee (with half n’ half) of course.
Thank you, Amy! It’s definitely okay to have cravings that are not-so-healthy when you are pregnant! I craved chips and salty things when I was pregnant with Mirella and everything turned out okay! Yogurt covered raisins are so good! I also put half n’ half in my coffee. 🙂
Today I ate my typical breakfast of plain greek yogurt with some chia seeds, hemp hearts, dried blueberries, and a little honey. Plus my morning latte. I eat this 90% of the time during the week. Weekends are usually something more hearty. Lunch and dinner vary a lot and I don’t typically eat the same thing.
I usually don’t have a nightcap but when I do I prefer a brandy that we got from Napa. Wine is good too.
I love that breakfast! I usually eat a similar breakfast of plain greek yogurt, chia, flaxseed, honey and fresh berries once the weather starts getting warmer.
