I had some pretty good food today considering the lack of food in my fridge. I fixed that with a trip to WFs after the gym. More on that in a sec!
For breakfast I had some avocado toast, a banana and some cantaloupe. Perfect breakfast :)
For lunch I had some rice and beans and stewed zucchini and tomato.
For an afternoon/pre-workout snack I had a honeycrisp apple with some raw almond butter.
After my workout I had a protein shake which held me over while I was doing my grocery shopping! I finally had $ and time to get my groceries so I made a quick(ish) trip to WFs. Got lots of good stuff! But first, look what I found...
They added A LOT to the bulk section by moving the fresh peanut/almond butter display and adding more bulk bins. Look what I found! Bulk organic hemp seeds! I thought that this would be perfect because I can get as much or as little as I want and I always feel like bulk items end up being less expensive (although I may just be imagining that). It was an exciting find though!
Here is my haul though. Most of it is ingredients for a raw dish I'm planning on making to shake things up a bit. I have basil, carrots, zucchini, two containers grape tomatoes, baby spinach, frozen blueberries, dulse, one avocado, some raw cashews, a gf raw blueberry nut granola bar, a container of hemp seeds for $4.50(!!!), 2 apple cinnamon Pure Bars (which are by far the most amazing flavor, so good!) and a Chocolate Brownie Pure Bar. I also got my dinner...
Brown rice veggie rolls! I normally wouldn't spend that much $$ on sushi but the salad bar was looking pretty sad and I just wanted something quick for dinner so I splurged.
So that was my day. I was running around from 8:30 am until 7 pm so I'm glad to finally be home and relaxing!
On tap for tomorrow: Work, cardio and an attempt at raw "cooking."
Have a great night!
I'm so happy that tomorrow is Friday, too! I've seen trainers working out their clients at parks, and always thought it would be great - glad you were able to enjoy that.
ReplyDeleteLunch sounds really tasty, I haven't had rice and beans in forever, but the stewed veggies seem super appetizing!
I wish that I liked cherry tomatoes because they are so cute, not sure what it is that doesn't work for me. Looking forward to your creation! :)
Haha a workout in the park would be lovely but I had to settle for the park...ing lot ;) Better than nothing!
DeleteLunch was sooooo good! Rice and beans is hands down my new favorite comfort food. Waaaay better than fries or greasy crap or sweets that I used to love!
Believe it or not I used to hate tomatoes. They are another thing I started to love when I was a vegetarian. I'm picky though, I prefer firm tomatoes, mushy ones are so gross!
Man am I glad it's Friday tomorrow. Except when you have to work Saturday, it's kind of like Thursday tomorrow still isn't it? ehhh.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I wanted to ask! What do you do with the dulse flakes? I recently just bought the same little container of dulse and I have no idea what to do with it.
Yeah I guess it would be more like a Thursday. That's what my next few weekends are going to be like. Boo for working weekends!
DeleteI use the dulse flakes on salads! I am posting one today, it was so good! Greens, avocado, hemp seeds, dulse flakes and a little vinaigrette. If you eat air popped popcorn I heard it is a good popcorn topping too!
I love the vegan sushi from Whole Foods too, but you're right, it's expensive. :(
ReplyDeleteI rarely get it but I was in a bind. At least it was worth it! And if you think about it, it would probably be more expensive at a restaurant!
DeleteGreat haul! That's awesome that they added bulk hemp seeds. They discontinued them at the Co-Op we shop at. :(
ReplyDeleteIt was right in front of my face and it took forever for me to notice it! Oh no, bummer!
