Hump Day Eats

Hey everyone! It's another gloomy day here in NY. I think I hear rain which kind of sucks. Can't bring myself to look out the window yet even though I have to leave in a half hour. Oh well, I guess it'll be a surprise?

Anyway, I got all of my errands done yesterday. Earrings successfully switched out, lots of fun crafting stuff from Michael's (the canvases were on sale, I got 4 for $8!) AND I perused a fun health food specialty store. It happens to be next to the tattoo shop I go to and I've been in there before so I figured I'd go peruse. Well they have made some major changes and it is awesome! They have tons of cool stuff, lots of gluten free and raw foods AND a cafe attached! Fresh juices and smoothies and organic eats. It's not strictly veg but it is super vegan friendly. In fact, I grabbed a menu and figured I'd scan it for you just to show you why I'm so stoked :)

If you click on it you should be able to read it! The cafe and store have great stuff but it is a bit pricey so I didn't really partake in anything just yet, but when I hopefully get a little more work over the summer I'm going to splurge on a few fun treats!

Anyway, lets move on to today's eats. Today is a really good representation of the pantry challenge because I used a lot of pantry items I'm trying to finish up AND the scraps of my produce. I REALLY need to go grocery shopping, hopefully tomorrow evening. Check it out!

For breakfast I had a bowl of warming oats and added some walnuts, raisins and coconut. Cinnamon too, as always :) It was sooooooo good!

Midmorning snack will be an unpictured orange.

Lunch is a chopped salad. Spinach, cucumber, carrot, half an ear of not so great corn (found out too late), sun dried tomatoes and roasted chickpeas. Mmmm.

Afternoon snack is going to be a Lemon Coconut Hemp Seed Bite and probably some coconut water.

Dinner is going to be some Quinoa Edamame salad and some yummy pickles! Look at the little baby one :) I halved the recipe because I feel like a cup of quinoa is a lot. 

This should definitely keep me going on my long day! I need to write up a grocery list too, I'll have to sneak that in :) I hope you are all having a good week and Happy Hump Day! It's easy peasy after today.

I am not sure if I'll be able to post tomorrow because I'll be rushed in the morning because of my 7:30 AM MRI appointment but maybe I'll be able to share a grocery haul if I can get there. If not I'll see you Friday!
