It is the first What I Ate Wednesday post of June. That’s right. June. How crazy is that? I’m pretty excited that the sixth month of the year has arrived, because I have all sorts of fun things going on over the next 30 days. Bring on the good times!
And bring on the good food…
What I Ate Wednesday: June 3, 2015
On this particular day, I had the sweet and savory craving going on for breakfast. I toasted up some gluten-free bread and made a breakfast sandwich with vegan cheese, an egg fried in coconut oil, strawberry jam, avocado, and a pinch of sea salt. I ate it open-faced alongside some red grapes. Has anyone ever wondered why they are called “red” grapes when they should really be called “purple/maroon” grapes?
My eggs craving continued into lunch time. I made a chickpea flour breakfast pizza topped off with guacamole, salsa, scrambled eggs, green onions, and sriracha. It was super filing and super delicious.
Around 3:00 I drank a green smoothie with unsweetened coconut milk, water, chocolate Vega One protein powder (<– affiliate link), frozen banana, frozen cucumber, frozen blueberries, and frozen spinach. It was so cold and icy… just the way I like it!
That evening, I met up with Joanna (and baby Everly), Erin, and Jordan for dinner at Mark’s Bistro in Dundee. I ordered the gluten-free Carnitas Tacos, which were served alongside white rice and cumin black beans. Everything was delicious, but I drank my smoothie a little too close to dinnertime so I was not super hungry. I ate one of the tacos with the rice and beans and boxed up the rest.
After over an hour and a half of talking and a 15-minute car ride home, I was hungry again. I ate my other two tacos, which tasted just as good cold!
I finished off my night with this new-to-me Kit’s Organic lemon vanilla + chia seeds bar. I warmed it up in the microwave for 15 seconds and topped it off with a little crunchy almond butter. It was the perfect late night snack!
Every single thing about this day was 100% delicious. If I could repeat this day of eats weekly, I absolutely would.
What is your favorite way to cook and eat eggs?
