What I Ate Wednesday, 5/14

So, I typically start off with a weather update, but honestly, I spent most of my day inside at work without access to windows…so I didn’t get to experience how awesome it was outside today.  Or was it sweltering?  I don’t even know.  When I did happen to be outside, which was at 7:30am, and again at 6pm, it was nice out, in the mid 70s.

Anyways, onto what I ate today!

Breakfast

2014-05-14 07.27.47

I drank a small glass of Simply Apple apple juice with two whole wheat waffles topped with fat free whipped cream and locally grown strawberries.  I also ate a handful of local blackberries and raspberries.  A delicious fruit filled breakfast!  And *gasp* no coffee for breakfast!  Just wait…it’s coming.

Snack

I got a coffee from Starbucks right before work, and sipped on it throughout the mid morning.  I didn’t finish it, so it continued with me during lunch.

I drank the rest of my Starbuck coffee, which I finally finished during lunch, along with a bottle of water.  I had a lot of random foods for lunch, so bear with me.  I had some celery sticks and baby carrots dipped in buttermilk ranch dressing (I had a packet from Chick-Fil-A).  Along with that, I had two thin slices of Boar’s Head Genoa salami and some original Wheat Thins topped with The Laughing Cow light spreadable cheese in garlic and herbs flavor.  I also had some homemade Tabouli!  I know, it’s in a container that looks like I bought it, but I promise, I made it myself!  And it’s delicious!  I’ll post the recipe soon, because I know you’re dying to know how I made it. 😉  And finally, I finished my meal with a banana.

I stopped by Whole Foods on my way home from work and grabbed up one of their Peanut Butter bars.  Nom.  And they have a graham cracker crust.  So delicious.  And all their ingredients are things you can read, and aren’t terribly bad for you, so that just makes me feel better about eating chocolate and peanut butter all in one delicious dessert.

Right before I cooked dinner, I ate this tiny little chocolate covered marshmallow which is also from Whole Foods.

 

Dinner

2014-05-14 21.05.20 I made steak!  Pan fried with some McCormicks seasoning on top.  It was quite tasty.  My sides consisted of Suddenly Salad classic pasta salad, steamed baby carrots with sugar and parsley, and some Shrimp salad from Whole Foods.  I drank a glass of homemade sweet tea with a lemon wedge.

I finished my night off with three caramel corn rice cakes from Quaker Oats.  I do consume gluten, but they are gluten free, if you’re curious!

I hope you enjoyed reading what I ate this Wednesday!  Have an awesome rest of the week!
