I’m not a vegetarian. In fact, for the first month or so I was pregnant, I couldn’t STAND vegetables. I lived on carbs and meat. Thankfully, that phase is over and I’m back to eating veggies – so much so, that I’m still incorporating the occasional Meatless Monday into my lifestyle. So these eats are courtesy of my Meatless Monday. Enjoy my What I Ate Wednesday!
Breakfast was my usual these days – overnight oats. Topped with some cinnamon and about half a banana.
And followed by an apple for a mid-morning snack.
Lunch was breakfast! Or I guess brunch? Egg whites, a veggie burger, some avocado and sautéed spinach. SO good. I used to eat this for breakfast daily but lately have been feeling more of the oats or fruit and yogurt for breakfast, so it was nice to have this for lunch.
Lots of fruit for snacks. A cut up nectarine and cutie. Followed by a pear later on in the afternoon.
For dinner, I made some baked spaghetti squash and topped it with some homemade tomato sauce, ricotta cheese, parmesan, spinach and arugula. Here’s the ugly pic (includes a little hunk of bread too).
And here’s a less ugly pic – well it was a Snapchat but you get the idea.Yes, I posted it to my story so if you happen to follow me you saw me making this.
And of course some dessert! I made some coconut flour peanut butter banana bread on Sunday and it was SO good for my after dinner treat. With some warm almond milk.
And that sums up my day of eats from yesterday. Now, some questions for you:
- Do you like almond milk? Ever have it warmed up?
- What’s your go-to breakfast?
That spaghetti squash looks so good!! I am a huge ricotta junkie!
Oh I looove ricotta! Love it just by itself as a snack yum!
Your pear looks so good! The pears here in China are more like apples, hard and crunchy (which is okay), but I miss the soft, juicy ones!
Oh wow, that coconut flour peanut banana bread looks so dense and moist? Do you have a recipe? And I understand the phases of not being able to tolerate vegetables. It’s amazing how our bodies are all so different.
Loved this post because I’ve been trying to incorporate a meatless day into my week as well. My go to breaky fluctuates between oats + pb and my classic avocado + egg toast!
Oh i love avocado and egg toast!! It’s a great go-to any time of the day!! YUM!
How do you make your overnight oats!? I need to try to make it soon!
I love vanilla almond milk (or plain, I’m not picky) and usually use it in my coffee or oats. I’ve honestly not drank a glass of milk since I was in high school and it was mandatory. I’d rather have water, juice or coffee. My go-to breakfast is banana bread or something I can top with peanut butter 😉
