What I Ate Wednesday, 7/16/14

When I woke up this morning it was very dark and gloomy out, but the sun eventually came out and it ended up being a really nice day. Rose was happy about that of course because that meant we got to go on the walkies! I definitely need to make a trip to the grocery store soon because my choices for food were pretty limited today. Here is what I ate though with what few things I happened to have here to make…

Breakfast

20140716_082632I didn’t make oatmeal like usual because I didn’t have any fruit to put in it. I don’t know, oatmeal is just not the same without some kind of fruit in it! Instead, I made myself a turkey sausage and egg sandwich on a whole wheat english muffin. I drank a cup of coffee with some organic half and half and also had lots of water.

Lunch

20140716_141318For lunch I made myself a very boring salad because again I didn’t have much to put in it. This is romaine lettuce with a little of that salad toppers stuff on top, shredded chicken, and Bolthouse Farms Caesar salad dressing. Lately I have been cooking 2-4 chicken breasts in the crock pot at the beginning of each week so that I can shred the chicken and use it for various things throughout the week. I have mostly been using it to add to my salads for some extra protein. So convenient and yummy. For my lunch I also toasted a slice of Ezekiel 7 Sprouted Grains bread with a little butter on it. The butter was totally unnecessary, but whatever.

Snack

20140716_173803After my pretty  intense leg workout I definitely needed some protein, so I made myself this protein shake. It’s just one scoop of  natural 100% Whey protein in the vanilla flavor mixed with 8 ounces of almond milk. I like this protein powder because it does not contain any artificial sweeteners and has only 3 grams of natural sugar. The taste is really nice too. It doesn’t have that strong (gross) protein-y taste.

Dinner

My dinner was not very healthy, but it’s one of my boyfriend’s favorites, so I make it occasionally. I have mentioned this spaghetti in a previous WIAW. I got the recipe from my boyfriend’s mom. Check out this post for the recipe. I also drank more water with my dinner.

Well, that’s everything I ate today! I hope you guys have a great rest of the week. The weekend will be here before you know it! Thanks for reading.

Bows and Arrows,

Ashley
