What I Ate Wednesday.. On Thursday 1/31/13

So I decided that it is acceptable for me to participate in WIAW on Thursday. After all it is my favorite blog day. I just happened to not have the time to get around to it yesterday.. but hey, better late than never!

For breakfast yesterday I had a yogurt parfait. It was vanilla Greek yogurt topped with dried cranberries, 1/4 cup old fashioned oats, slivered almonds, cinnamon and a few white chocolate chips :p

Recently I have been trying to cut back on my meat consumption. Not because I believe all meat is bad and those who eat it should be shunned, I'm just trying to convert to more of a plant based diet. So far I'm liking it. I feel great and refreshed after my meals. For lunch I had a veggie sandwich inspired by the Spinach Veggie Wrap from Jason's Deli that I usually get as a gluten free sandwich. It consisted of pepper jack cheese, spinach, mushrooms, tomato and avocado. It was delicious!

For an afternoon snack I had some cut up veggies and hummus. Peppers, kalmata olives and grape tomatoes go so nicely with spinach hummus :p

Once dinner rolled around I was feeling something quick and easy and not too heavy. I had just finished training so I wasn't in the mood to demolish all my hard work with a heavy meal. I made a veggie fritata. It had spinach, peppers, mushroom, onion, and was topped with a mexican cheese blend and salsa. Heart healthy and delicious!



My late night snack consisted of a scoop of lowfat vanilla fro-yo, a dark chocolate kiss and gluten free a cappucino chip mini muffin I snagged from Holiday Baking Company. It. Was. Perfect.

Hopefully next week I will actually be on time for What I Ate Wednesday! Fingers crossed :)
