You Ate What???

So, most of the time I just blog about one single recipe or "thing" I'm eating and/or enjoying. Interestingly however, I've received a recurring request from a handful of people all in the same week. This makes me think maybe I'm "supposed to" follow that lead. The request - will you post exactly what you eat during the day? Just show me what you've eaten. OK! I can do that!

I'm thoroughly enjoying the food I'm eating and the "style" of eating in my life right now. I hope you do too!

Here's what went into my belly today!

Breakfast - a "broccoflower pancake". Shredded super thinly a handful of broccoli, cauliflower, and red onion, tossed around in an egg, added a tiny bit of cheddar cheese (if you're vegan leave out, would still be good. Or, would be delightful with goat cheese!), smashed together in a skillet until well set and brown on one side, flip, eat!! Yumma!!! I put a little hot sauce on it, added half a slice of gluten-free bread with a little shmear of almond butter and yerba mate tea. Heaven.

Mom was here with my peeps, so I went for a good run. Needed a little post-run fuel so I had a smoothie that's not pictured here. It consisted of 1/4 banana, 1 cup unsweetened almond milk, 1/2 scoop Life's Basics vegan vanilla protein, and a small handful frozen fruit.

Lunch - spicy tuna cucumber sandwiches. Combined half can tuna (get the good stuff! I love Wild Planet tuna...worth the price!), small scoop cream cheese, spicy mustard, onion powder, pepper, little hot sauce, scooped it onto cucumber slices.



 

And a few of these beauties!

Plus a bite of protein brownies leftover from last night for dessert!

That kept me happy until nap time. Enter my current FAVORITE snack! I could eat this everyday (ummm...actually I have been)! A generous helping of roasted cauliflower with sea salt and pepper, dipped in natural ketchup. Yes please! (Also munched on half a chicken patty, and a small spoonful of almond butter while these cooked). 



Time for dinner! I LOVE a dinner that only requires three ingredients! This is a super easy, yummy way to cook up chicken! Chicken breasts, combine coconut milk, teriyaki sauce and cilantro, pour over chicken, cook and serve!

Served mine with a lovely salad and was a HAPPY woman!

(Arugula, orange bell pepper, cucumber, beets, avocado, goat cheese)

And now, my loves are bathed and tucked soundly into bed, so this mama is kickin' it with my man and a lovely glass of pinot! There you have it! That's what this sista' ate today, share with me your yummy eats!!
