Hey guys! It’s What I Ate Wednesday time!
Thanks Jenn for hosting this brilliant link up. I love being able to connect with other people and drool over get inspired by other’s meals!
Here are my meals from yesterday (Tuesday).
Breakfast:
Suuuuurprise! Another breakfast wrap. Are you tired of seeing these yet? I hope not, because I’m not tired of eating them. I added a new element to my usual tortilla yesterday … black beans. A delicious idea! Black beans + 2 eggs (cooked in the microwave with chia seeds and shredded cheese) + 2 slices of turkey bacon, all rolled up into a flax seed tortilla.
Not pictured: a piece of pizza around 11AM. I played the role of cameraman (lady? girl? person?) for a coworker yesterday morning, and he did a story at a local pizza shop. They sent a box of ‘za back to work with us! It was delicious 
Lunch:
It’s too freaking hot to cook anything these days. I’m boycotting the oven, sometimes I won’t even touch the stove top. Honestly … the microwave and the George Foreman grill are my new BFFs. I was able to scoot home for lunch yesterday, so I decided to eat something cold. I had overnight oats prepared before I left for work, and that bowl was great! In there: an overripe banana, 1/2 cup of oats, chocolate almond milk (poured until I got a consistency I liked), Greek yogurt, and one full scoop of chocolate whey protein. I topped it with the rest of a carton of raspberries I had kicking around. Yum!
Supper:
You guys, this dish was awesome. This huge plate contained quinoa, edamame, black beans, olives, corn, sliced chicken breast, hot sauce, and cheese. I decided to throw some Greek yogurt on there and mix it all up afterwards. There was a lot of food … and I ate every last bit of it. I will definitely be making this again.
And the fitness factor for July’s WIAW theme? Well, yesterday I climbed 79 flights of stairs on the stairmaster (while watching Mad Men via Netflix, on my iPhone), then did a quick 1.5 mile hilly bike ride, and some really quick leg and ab work.
Ta daaaaaaah!There’s another rendition of What I Ate Wednesday.
Ciao for now!
so lately i’ve been really into throwing a bunch of ingredients (protein + carbs + veggies) in one bowl with some seasonings and calling it dinner. just like you have here! more often than not it works and it is a really fun way to eat and use up those itty bits of veggies you have lying around…
Mmm love the look of your breakfast wrap! Looks delicious
Oh wow, that salad looks fantastic
Seriously amazing. And I love cold oats in summer.
Definitely not sick of that breakfast… it looks great! When I find a meal/food I like, I eat it to death aka until I get tired of it, so I understand wanting it every day
The salad looks great too, nice and hearty!
That looks like an amazing breakfast. I need to start doing that
Your breakfast and lunch look delicious. I gotta get some eggs cause I think the ones I have went bad (sad face)
Your supper salad looks so delish! Your newest reader from WIAW! Cheers!
Yay! Welcome to YHG
thanks for stopping by!
What a great quinoa mix!!
I need to start taking your ideas because I use the oven every night and seriously question why I do.
That salad looks great. It looks like what mine should have looked like if I hadn’t burned my quinoa
Giant cous cous is also an amazing addition to bean salads!
Your supper looks awesome – so colorful! And awesome job on the Stairmaster – I always wanted to like it but never made it more than a couple of flights before giving up
Everything looks so delicious -especially that breakfast wrap! Lately I have been loving savory breakfasts:) Agreed, it’s way too hot for cooking!
Ohmygosh your supper looks so colorful and tasty! Funny about the oven – makes sense though! When it’s this hot… who needs it?
