Hi there! It’s time for another edition of What I Ate Wednesday, hosted by the wonderful Jenn at Peas and Crayons. This month is all about sensible snacking … and while I’m not a huge snacker, one of my meals on Monday (the day I’m featuring in today’s post) felt like one giant snack fest.
Monday’s breakfast:
I tried something new! I guess I could count this as achieving one of my goals for June, but it’s not much of a recipe, so I’m not sure if I will or not. I made egg white oats, after my sister raved about it to me on the weekend. I cooked 1/2 cup of oats (with just over 1 cup of water) in the microwave, and then stirred in 2 egg whites before microwaving for another 45 seconds. Then I stirred in a spoonful of chocolate protein powder, and kah blam, a protein packed breakfast. And so voluminous with the egg whites in there! This will be making regular appearances. I had it on Tuesday, too 
Monday’s lunch:
This is the snacky meal I mentioned earlier. I wanted so many different things, so I just piled ‘em all onto one plate. I microwaved a sweet potato, and since I couldn’t decided toppings, I covered one half with plain Greek yogurt and the other half with crunchy peanut butter (I’m so glad I finally decided to try that combo one day). With that, I had a handful of carrots with this fabulous new Greek yogurt dip I found, and some cherries. I always know summer has officially arrived when I can start buying cherries again!
Monday’s supper:
I had half of a spaghetti squash sitting in my fridge, and that was the plan for dinner. But … sometimes a girl just wants a sandwich. And that’s what this girl was craving for dinner when she walked in the door after work. It had been a hot day, so I wanted something cold and quick. In that tomato tortilla is two eggs (with a little bit of cheese), sliced turkey breast, and a bit cream cheese as the glue to hold it all together. I had some steamed veggies on the side with mustard on top. It looks a little gross … you make think it’s a little gross … but I do it all the time!
There! Done like dinner Enjoy your Wednesday – don’t forget to check out some other WIAW’s!
I still haven’t tried egg white oats…I have always been scarred of them because I’m not exactly sure how to do it! Your method sounds simple enough, I will have to try it! I think I know what’s for breakfast tomorrow…
I was like ‘wow a purple tortilla’ hehe. my daughter was jealous. red is just as awesome. nice color touch.
and i won’t judge the egg white and oatmeal cuz i love my cottage cheese and oatmeal together. nom nom. have you tried whipped cottage cheese? I heard its a must try. Nice job on the eats. I bet the yogurt + PB would make a great thai peanut sauce w/ a couple more ingredients. great for chicken.
egg white oats are also on my to do list.
and sweet potato + nut butter is a perennial favourite over here. I’m a huuuuge fan. In fact it’s been awhile….
loving the red tortilla. I had no idea what it was at first!
ok, was it “try sweet potato and peanut butter” week? I feel like I have seen this all over the place, which means I should have some in my mouth right now! It’ll have to wait until tomorrow though. Need to try the egg white oats too, I love the word “voluminous”! lol happy WIAW!
I have never tried egg white oats. A great way to pack more protein in.
hi i am http://fitcakesjuliebeatrice.wordpress.com/, this is only my new blog:)
Oh wow, a tomato tortilla? That looks fantastic! What did the egg white oats taste like? That is something I have been meaning to make. Also, I have been meaning to try the sweet potato/peanut butter combo. It looks fantastic!!
I always put two or three egg whites in my oatmeal or one egg stirred in at the end! Adds such a great amount of protein and makes them nice and fluffy, yum!
Never thought of adding the egg whites to oatmeal. It really would pump up the volume. The sweet potato lunch looks excellent! Need to try that!
I agree, sometimes a girl just does want a sandwich! Love the post.
I love eggwhites in my oats! Once I started adding them I couldn’t go back to having oatmeal without!
Looks like a delicious dinner 
Loving the sweet potato! Sweet potato + nuts = soooo good

your tortilla looks purple! whats up with that?
also love your snacky lunch. i have been doing this a lot lately myself. why choose one craving instead of satisfying them all at once? it only makes sense.
Nice protein packed breakfast! Also, I’d like to buy a pretty purple wraps! Superstore, Sobeys?
Nut butter on sweet potatoes is to die for!
Your dinner doesn’t look gross, it looks delish! I always forget about eggs for dinner.
I love veggies with mustard! On Monday night I was dipping steamed broc into a jar of sweet & spicy mustard from the farmers market. Holy moly it was good.
I keep hearing egg whites make oats quite puffy and satisfying indeed, but I still can’t get on the oats train!
The Greek yogurt on the sweet tater sounds fab.
Sweet potato with nut butter & cherries in one meal – sounds like perfection!
I love egg white oats but I haven’t made them in ages! I might do that tomorrow. Sweet potatoes with greek yogurt are delicious. Yum
I had spaghetti squash last night, sometimes though, you just have to go with your gut. Luckily they stay for a while!
All looks so good! I like having “snacky meals” sometimes too
Your food is so cute
I do not like egg white oats, oh man, I need them on the side.
I love egg white oatmeal! I first tried it last fall, and I haven’t been able to go back to regular oats since then. I love the volume and texture the egg whites give it!
LOL We allll have our “it looks gross but it’s delicious and I love it” meal. No judgments!
The greek yogurt dip sounds yummm, and the oatmeal combo to simple not to try. I’m on it!
I’ve tried egg white oats before and I definitely like the different consistency it creates!
Lovin’ that sweet potato too! Had one for dinner last night!
I just tried egg white oats a couple of days ago; had them for breakfast again this morning..theyre so good! Another tip for if you want them to be even more voluminous is to whisk your egg whites before hand so theyre aerated and then fold them into your oats and cook
I always want a nice sandwich
Love your wrap – never would have thought to add some spaghetti squash in there
The veg on the side actually looks like candy when I don’t zoom in :p
