That’s my number of different veggies I ate yesterday. I suppose it could be more if I counted the corn chips, but since I’m not Congress (who counted the smear of tomato sauce on cheese pizza as a vegetable), I don’t.
Today I’m sharing my day of food for WIAW, but don’t forget that tomorrow will be all about Hailey’s meals and is also the Munchkin Meals link up. Please snap your pictures and join in!
I’ve lost my desire for coffee lately and instead am enjoying green tea in the mornings. It satisfies my craving for something warm to sip on while I do computer work and it and the Juice Plus gummies hold me over until Hailey is up and I can make breakfast.
Half a whole wheat bagel, avocado, an attempt at a fried egg and Sriracha
Yesterday’s breakfast was awesome. I am deeply saddened that I’m out of avocado today.
I took a cardio strength class in the morning that I needed after quite a few days with no weights. I still feel like an exercise class newbie, which explains my attempt at a stealth photo. No need to draw attention to myself!
Back at home began my typical day of continuous mini-meals.
Baby spinach, roasted carrots, leftover black bean burger, La Bonne Vie spreadable goat cheese that I’m loving lately and… more Sriracha.
Barley, lentils, spinach, red pepper, goat cheese, cashews and Balsamic dressing
With my weekly prep, these meals come together really quickly, but I still was needing another snack after my 3 mile afternoon stroll with a friend.
I could drink Jack’s salsa. Have you ever had it? If not, you must try it!
Dinner came together quickly thanks to David manning the grill. It’s still a little too chilly to eat outside, but we’re so close I can taste it!
Are you grilling yet?
What is your favorite thing to grill?
I think might be corn… or pizza… or steaks… or onions.
Erica says
Totally stealthy photo! I ‘pretend’ take pictures all the time out in public as to not draw attention to my foolishness!
Liz @ iheartvegetables says
Yum! Loving all the Siracha on your eats 😉 That breakfast sandwich looks good!! 🙂 And the meal prep must make things a lot easier when it comes to meals 😉
Brittany says
I’ve recently jumped on the sriracha bandwagon and totally get it! So much flavor and SPICE. Mmm 🙂
Lee says
I have an egg sandwich for breakfast pretty much every day. I try to stick some spinach in the egg to get extra veggies.
Not quite warm enough for grilling yet, but I’m eagerly waiting. Pizza on the grill is great!
Taylor says
Yum the egg sandwich looks amazing! I have been craving one but don’t have avocado 🙁
Hanna says
We grilled some garlic balsamic pork chops last night. They were delish!
Hannah @ CleanEatingVeggieGirl says
Your breakfast looks amazing! There is really nothing better than combining toast, avocado, and fried eggs. I am loving your addition of sriracha, too :).
Brittany says
I tell ya, I’ve been putting sriracha on everything lately! So, so tasty 🙂
Alex says
You look so good mama! We love grilling veggie burgers and any type of veggie. Yum!
blackhuff says
In this meals you have posted, I noticed that you only had three carb servings for the day. The other little meals of your was full of protein and veggies/fruit. Which is great in my opinion.
Tiff @ Love, Sweat, & Beers says
I hear ya on the stealth photo! Love it. heehee By the way, you’re looking so fit! I can tell someone eats her veggies! 😉
Brittany says
Thanks lady! And yes, you know, love me some veggies! 😉
Giselle@myhealthyhappyhome says
I still have not tried Sriracha! I know, get with it right!?! We’ve been grilling more as the weather becomes more spring like. We love it! Last night we had grilled tequila lime shrimp with roasted veggies. One of our favorites is grilled quesadillas. A fun bbq/party meal since you prepare all the fillings then everyone can create their own quesadilla!
Brittany says
I’ve had it in my fridge for a long time, but only recently jumped on the sriracha bangwagon. Let me be the one to invite you aboard- it’s delicious!
Brittany says
Oh gosh, BAND wagon… not bangwagon…
Laura @ Mommy Run Fast says
Mmm, we had a similar lentil salad… so good! It’s kind of grilling weather year round here, which ironically means we don’t use it as often as we should… might have to grill this week!
Kelli H says
I love grilled red bell peppers and zucchini.
Paulina says
Jack’s Salsa is made only 20 minutes from where I live, and I agree, it’s the best! You’re looking fit and strong in the stealth photo 🙂
Brittany says
20 minutes from you?? Can I come visit and we can go and stuff our faces with delicious salsa together?!
Maria says
I’ve never heard of Jack’s Salsa, but I’m hoping I’ll be able to find it when I come to North Carolina (!) in June! How far away are you from the Outer Banks? 😉
Local salsa always taste so much better than the store brand – I have a favorite brand here that you need to try!
Oh and as far as grilling: burgers. I’m a traditionalist.
Brittany says
hmmmmmm…. where at the outer banks?? I wouldn’t call them close, but maybe not too far?!?
Maria says
Buxton. About an hour south of Nags Head…kind of far 🙁
But I might be flying in to Raleigh this time and staying there one night!
Nicole @ Fruit 'N' Fitness says
That sweet potato looks perfect! I love grilled food, my favorite is my stepdads lamb and mixed vegetables.
Ashley says
We grilled for the first time this weekend, too. Though, we’re in Ohio, and it was definitely not warm enough to eat outside. My little guy must remember eating outside, because he keeps climbing up on the patio table and signing “eat” and yelling “daddy cook”. My sentiments exactly, buddy!
Shel@PeachyPalate says
Love grilled veggies and even fruit – banana in foil with chocolate in the middle!
Jen@HealthyFoodandFamily says
LOL @ the stealth photo, I do the same thing at the gym! I got out steaks for dinner tonight, I am hoping to grill them, but it’s really cold out today! We’re getting closer…
Sarah Pie says
Grilled pizza for sure!! I love all the Sriracha throughout the day, it’s one of my favorite ways to add a quick kick to everything 🙂
Avery @ YoungAspirations says
Haha! Love your stealth photo. You are a braver woman than I 🙂 Great meals too! I say this with genuine jealousy: I wish I had an appetite big enough to eat that many yummy healthy foods in a day. I have digestive issues and so often have this weird lack of appetite. I feel like so much of our foods go to waste and I miss getting to create new and unique recipes! Those meals looks ah-mazing!
Lift, Sleep, Eat says
Mmmm all of your meals look so good; that black bean burger looks like heaven..ive never tried one of them before! Look delicious though!
Kristen @ notsodomesticated says
Goodness, favorite thing to grill?? Steaks, burgers, pizza, fruit … you name it! I can’t wait for it to get a little warmer so we can start grilling out again!
Matt @ The Athlete's Plate says
Delicious day! I need to refill my propane tank so I can fire up the grill!
Jamie (Mama.Mommy.Mom.) says
Will you come cook for me? Pretty please?
Gina @ Health, Love, and Chocolate says
I can’t wait to go over to my parent’s house to grill this summer! We typically do steak and seafood with the occasional tofu or homemade veggie burgers.
Kim @ Racing Bananas says
Your breakfast looks absolutely delicious! I think I’ll have to try it out tomorrow morning!
Danica @ It's Progression says
Pizza is my favorite thing to grill!! Closely followed by corn on the cob and sweet potato fries 🙂
char eats greens says
Ok, I need to know WHERE you got that humungo thing of Jack’s salsa and for how much. I swear we get ripped off in Canada. I pay an arm and a leg for that crack….I mean, salsa.
Brittany says
I got it at Harris Teeter! It’s not exactly cheap ($5.99 maybe?) but we LOOOOOVE it!!
