WIAW #15: Another Meatless Monday

Happy What I Ate Wednesday! These were my eats from this past Monday, which was the day after the Cleveland half marathon and for some reason I was STARVING that day. I managed to be busy at work/etc. so I didn’t have as much time for snackage as I would’ve liked. But let me tell you. Starving.

It was the day after the race, so I kept it easy with my workout – a reallllly easy slow elliptical workout and then a walk on the treadmill to get my legs moving. Boy, my quads were tight! I was hungry by the time I got in around 8. I scarfed down the breakfast that B had made for me – and guess what – it’s different than last week! NO egg whites in our house (sad face :() but instead a veggie burger, spinach and frozen veggies. I also had a clementine.

For lunch, we went out to celebrate our new intern’s first day. I got a miso soup and salad.

Dinner was SOOOO good. I made some vegetarian curry with zucchini, chickpeas, peppers and onions and green curry.

Two questions for you:

  • What’s your favorite veggie burger – any good store-bought brand recmomendations?
  • Favorite Girl Scout cookie? Tagalongs or Do-Si-Dos!

    Ummm minus the no egg whites, that’s like a perfect day of eats! Those nuts though. And curry! Soo good. Fave GS cookie= tagalong or samoa. I think I’ve asked you before, but is artic zero really any good?

      Arctic Zero is good if you don’t think of it as ice cream 🙂 It’s like a low fat fudgicle – it’s not deep dark chocolate ice cream, but still good for what it is. And everyone is different with the flavors – I’m not a chocolate person so I prefer the vanilla maple and strawberry. But I know people who love the cookies n cream and chocolate peanut butter!

    I love miso! I’ve grown up with it. I’ve thought about trying Arctic Zero, and it’s good to get an honest opinion on it! 🙂
