Hi friends…how was your day?! Mine flew by, and I love that it’s already Wednesday tomorrow (work-wise, at least)…my boss also gave me chocolate today for doing something she referred to as “impressive.” That’s never a bad thing I suppose ;)
On an unrelated note, did you hear about this?? Um, GLASS??!? Just another reason to buy whole foods more often than not, I suppose. Scary.
Alright, let’s take a look at today’s food journal:
breakfast
honey whole-wheat toast topped with almond butter, cinnamon, chia seeds, and banana slices + banana with almond butter + a homemade apple cider donut
lunch
a green smoothie topped with pepitas and granola + an egg (cooked in the microwave. classy.)
in the smoothie: spinach, kale, chard, 1/2 avocado, frozen mango chunks, frozen banana, acv, ground flaxseed, wheat germ, OJ, ice cubes
afternoon snack
an apple!
(I spy some boots…snapped a pic while at work)
dinner
first I had a salad — greens, chickpeas, carrots, and caesar dressing
then I had a roasted potato (and a half), mashed, topped with Earth Balance, sea salt, and black pepper
dessert
I was craving dessert tonight, so I went for it!
I had a leftover homemade brownie from Valentine’s Day (frozen, thawed) with a scoop of peanut butter and some (dairy-free) vanilla ice cream.
SO good.

What’s your favorite way to cook eggs?
*I prefer over-hard via stovetop, but I’m fine with the scrambled microwave version, especially if I’m in a hurry.
What was your workout today? And what do you have planned for tomorrow?
*I did an easy-paced 4-mile run this morning, plus some walking before and after….Tomorrow is a REST day for me. I can tell my body needs it!

Tha apple cider donut sounds so yummy! You can’t go wrong with chocolate + PB + ice cream – great dessert choice! ;)
I’m a scrambled egg girl, all the way. You’re dessert? = good choice :)
The smoothie bowl looks so vibrantly green! Mine never turn out that way. Was it the kale, spinach, avocado, or just the fact that they were all mixed together?
I either prefer my eggs scrambled or made into an omelet… which man an omelet sounds good right about now :)
I really like eggs when they are part of an omelet….or just scrambled! Today for my work out I did 2.5 miles on the treadmill, and will be doing 30 mins of cross training tomorrow (just started training for a 10k)
I’m itching to race SO badly right now!
Good luck with your training!
I love runny eggs and toast or omelettes with the whole produce aisle inside of them;) My workout today was Jillian Michaels yoga meltdown part one and two and it felt amazing. Those donuts look great and I need to make them now.
I highly recommend the donuts–they’re so easy, too!
I really love to add some spinach to an omelet! Love eggs! Oh and that dessert looks amazing. :)
Mmm love your varied breakfast!
My favourite eggs are scrambled I think, with someting interesting in them like tuna or salmon.
Today’s my rest day, 5 mile run planned for tomorrow! :)
I hope your run goes well today!
