WIAW: Typical Eats

Well, after last week’s WIAW featuring some meals in Mexico, I feel like this week is a little weak. And I should apologize to you in advance. But you know what? This week’s entry is pretty typical. It’s a typical day of eats for me. So here you go – a pretty typical day:

Breakfast – egg whites, veggies. Always love this. And typically have some salsa or hot peppers with or in my eggs 🙂 And lately been loving some citrus with my breakfast – so I had a cutie.

For lunch I had a pretty awesome homemade salad. It was spinach, chicken, sweet potatoes, artichoke hearts, avocado, feta cheese and olives. SO good!

And a pear. This pear was pretty awesome.20160201_153240

For a snack later in the day I had some carrots and mixed nuts. Love the combo of the salty/nutty and carrots.

And some tea in the afternoon. I bought this tea in Mexico City and the mandarin lichi tea was great!

For dinner we had spaghetti squash marinara with cheese and meatballs. B made meatballs and they were so so so good. I may have had some mozzarella cheese on the side (not pictured).

And I like to end the day with something sweet – a few spoonfuls of this ice cream was SO good and hit the spot! And that was the full day.20160201_190325

Some questions for you:

  • Do you typically end the day with something sweet?
  • What’s something you like to put on salads that may not be typical? I’ve been told sweet potatoes are not typical but I love them!

    That salad looks like everything. I’m obsessed with artichoke hearts, so for me that salad sounds perfect!

    Those meatballs look wonderful! I always make mine small, but I think big is the way to go.
    I am so impressed by how much veggies you get in at breakfast! goals.

    Can we talk about the fact I’m now craving pears, cuties and salted cashews? Mmmmh. Those are some really good snack choices. What kind of pear is that?
    I’m not a salad person but have been looked at for other “weird” foods – just because people around here apparently don’t eat savoury oatmeal or oats in general.

    Oooo take out the olives and that is my type of salad. Especially with my latest fascination with artichoke hearts. I also love the idea of carrots plus salty nuts. I never buy salted nuts but oh how I love them. You’ve inspired me to treat myself.

      We all deserve a little treat sometime!
