Happy Wednesday everyone! Is it just me, or is this week actually moving right along? Trust me, I am so not complaining!
Now let’s get to today’s eats…
What I Ate Wednesday
Breakfast/Morning Snack
Unfortunately, I do not have much going on for this as far as pictures go. We were treated to breakfast pizza at work today, so I had 1 1/2 slices of delicious veggie breakfast pizza. It has been forever since I have eaten breakfast pizza. Note to self: eat it more than once every 3 or 4 years!
I also ate a sweet mandarin orange to balance out the saltiness of the pizza. I don’t know about you, but I always need something sweet to compliment a salty or savory dish.
My mid-morning snack was the usual: a banana!
Lunch
Lunch consisted of leftovers from last night’s dinner (hence the non-Tupperware picture). I ate “Bacon” and Cheese Stuffed Mushrooms (recipe to come!) with a side of butternut squash.
I also snacked on some baby carrots dipped in hummus.
Snack
After work, and prior to heading out for a 3 mile walk (yay for decent weather!), I snacked on an apple dipped in this:
Lately, I cannot get enough of this almond butter. It is just SO tasty!
Dinner
For tonight’s dinner I made Creamy Mushroom Barley from The Happy Herbivore Abroad cookbook. As with all of her recipes, this dish did not disappoint! And yes, the girl who used to hate mushrooms, ate mushrooms for two of my meals today. Pretty crazy! 😉
Snacks
Tonight’s snacks included/will include: Roasted Radish Chips, cooked green peas, some fresh fruit (cantaloupe, blackberries, strawberries, and blueberries), and a TBD salty snack (probably Pop Chips or lentil chips).
All I can say about today’s eats is YUM! And to go with this month’s WIAW theme, my vegetable count for the day was….approximately 7 servings. What can I say, I love vegetables!

that dinner looks sooo good ! i too use to hateeeeee mushrooms ! everything about them now i love them ! stuffed mushrooms sounds so good..!
It is crazy how our taste buds and cravings can change, isn’t it?? It was a super yummy dinner. I love her cookbooks!
Wow, I need to get on the veggie train!! Looks like you had a great day of eats 🙂
I do love me some veggies…I guess there are worse problems to have.. 😉
I want your lunch! Love mushrooms and that looks soo good! I have also never had breakfast pizza, sounds interesting.
You are missing out! You definitely need to track down some breakfast pizza ASAP!
Roasted Radish Chips sound fantastic! I will have to try those out once I feel better. I have never had breakfast pizza, if you can believe that! Love + Shine CourtStar
Wow, I am amazed by the number of people who have never had breakfast pizza. It is definitely a must try!
I want that dinner! Actually, I want all of this food. Also, you made me miss breakfast pizza…it’s been wayyyy too long since I’ve had it last!
Isn’t it so good? I cannot believe how many people have never had it or heard of it!
I sure wish you’d been able to snap a picture of that breakfast pizza, because like almost everyone else here, I’ve never seen or tried one! Was it ordered from a pizza place or homemade? I’m so intrigued! Maybe that’s a recipe you can share with us sometime. *hint hint* 😉
Everything looks delicious–especially that risotto. Yum! I may need to check out the Happy Herbivore cookbook; it sounds like you’ve been really pleased with the recipes you’ve tried! And roasted radish chips? I’m going to go check those out now!
Happy Wednesday! <3
It amazes me how many people have never heard of breakfast pizza! It is pretty popular here in the Midwest at pizza places and is often served by the slice at gas stations. I will have to definitely attempt to make it at home and post about it here!
Yes, you should absolutely check out the cookbooks. They are fabulous!
Ditto to what Sarah said about the breakfast pizza!! It sounds fantastic! I seriously would just love to come live with you for a couple days… I mean I know i’d be fed amazing food 🙂
Haha, stop on by! 😉
I also love veggies. I almost thought the creamy barley was white beans, which BTW I would still have eaten. 🙂
Me too! I love beans :).
The mushroom barley dish looks great! I made a mushroom barley soup earlier this winter, and was very pleased! Something about those two ingredients really compliment each other. And yes, that TJ’s almond butter is addictively delicious! 🙂
A soup version sounds absolutely delicious. Is it posted on your blog?
I used to hate mushrooms too, but I am definitely liking them more now! And those radish chips look delish!
It is crazy how our food cravings and taste buds can change. Yay for mushrooms :).
Bacon and cheese stuffed mushrooms?!?! Recipe please! Can’t wait 🙂
I will post it likely within the next week or two. Try to be patient! 😉
Ohh breakfast pizza sounds good- I’ve actually never tried it. Also, I’ll have to have some hummus and carrots as a snack because I only like carrots dipped in something and I never liked humus until very recently. I know, strange!
You really must try breakfast pizza. It is GOOD!
Carrots are the best. They are definitely one of my favorite vegetables.
Those stuffed mushrooms with butternut squash look so good!!! Can’t wait for the recipe.
Recipe to come within a week or two! I promise! 😉
Not sure what breakfast pizza is… but it says pizza, so I’m on board!
Your lunch look so awesome! Can’t wait for the recipe 🙂
Wow, I never knew so many people had never heard of breakfast pizza! It definitely must be a regional thing.
Whaaatt is breakfast pizza!? Is that like pizza, just at breakfast time. I used to love eating leftover pizza for breakfast haha. YUM to that barley meal!
Essentially it is pizza with breakfast toppings…potatoes, meats like sausage, ham, or bacon (I obviously skip these), vegetables like peppers and onions, scrambled eggs, and cheese!
I’ve never heard of radish chips before!
I hadn’t either until I thought to make them!
What a healthy Wednesday! 🙂 The barley looks good, you should post the recipe!
Sorry, but I do not post recipes that come directly from cookbooks and that I do not make alterations to. I wish I could, but I do not feel comfortable doing so :(. You should definitely look into purchasing the cookbook, though. It is fabulous!
Yum! The mushrooms sound amazing:)
Yay for mushrooms! (I so cannot believe that I just typed that ;)).
Haha! The life of a food blogger;)
Dinner looks delicious!
