Hi, everyone. Happy “What I Ate Wednesday.” These are my eats from last Monday. I was able to have one of my favorite lunches while I was out running a few errands. Hope you enjoy my day. Thank you to Jenn at Peas and Crayons for hosting the WIAW.
This is what I ate:
Breakfast (6:15am)
Started off with Instant Coffee from Trader Joe’s. I usually brew a pot of coffee every morning but this morning my husband was rushed. So I just boiled some water and it was fairly good. It was a treat because I did not have all the clean up from the coffee pot. To eat I had 2 slices of whole wheat bread with 2 poached eggs, topped with a little shredded cheese (Trader Joe’s Mexican Blend). Followed by my usually mix of vitamins.
AM Snack (9:00am)
An apple (maybe a Fiji?!?) and raw, unsalted cashews.
Lunch (11:45am)
Before I stopped at the market, I had lunch at the Veggie Grill. I cannot get enough of their Buffalo Wings (made with veggie chicken) and the Thai Chickin’ Salad. As you can see, we could not wait until I took a photo before we started on the wings. After marketing, I ran in Starbucks to get a Cool Lime Refresher. This is my new favorite treat, really refreshing during the summer.
PM Snack (2:30pm)
Half of a Gaya Melon (I think that is what it is called) from the Korean market. I really like these melons because they are small and sort of taste like honeydew meets a cantaloupe.
Dinner (5:300pm)
Last week, I reworked a recipe and came up with a new recipe “Chickpea and Seitan White Enchiladas” and I divided the recipe in half, so I could freeze half for later. Monday night, we finished off the second half. They were just as good as the first time we had them.
Dessert (7:00pm)
And to complete the day Chocolate Angel Food Cake, to satisfy my sweet tooth.
July’s WIAW theme is “Food, Fun & Fitness” and here is a link to my exercise log for the week. Thank you for stopping by. I hope your day was full of healthy meals.

Your post totally reminded me that I need to eat more nuts…haven’t had any in weeks (apart from nut butter!)….oops! Happy WIAW!
Thank you! I just love nuts for a snack. 🙂
I’m making poached eggs tomorrow – Turkish eggs!
Enjoy! 🙂
I have yet to try TJs instant coffee ( I thought there wasn’t anything I hadn’t yet tried there!). How is it? I’m usually not a fan of instant coffee (except Starbucks) but would be willing to try TJs! Happy WIAW!
I think the Starbucks instant is better. But we love to try different things. 🙂
Those poached eggs look delicious!
Thanks!
I’ll have to check out the lime refresher.
And find me a melon. I like how you describe the mixture.
Maybe I’ll like cantaloupe again (my mother gave it to us every morning for breakfast – I grew to dislike it. LoL)
I don’t like cantaloupe too. But I do like these melons. Let me know what you think. 🙂
The Veggie Grill sounds amazing! I love healthy cafes:) Your enchiladas look divine as well- freezing half is such a good idea!
Thank you! The Veggie Grill is amazing. 🙂
love your morning snack choice! cashews are my fav
Me Too. 🙂
Cashews are so so good…I usually keep almonds and pistachios in the pantry but I should pick some of those up next time I’m at the store–only I have a hard time eating just one serving, they’re so addicting!
I know they are addictive. Sometimes I am better than others. 🙂
I need a place like the veggie grill. That sounds amazing. Those buffalo wings. mmmmmmm. Your poached eggs are so cute too – yes, eggs are cute lol
Thank you! I have really been enjoying eggs lately. 🙂
I have heard such great things about The Veggie Grill! I wish there was one around here. I’m drooling on my keyboard over those buffalo wings. ; )
They are really good! 🙂
