Am I the only one who finds today’s date really cool?Ā I mean just look at it: 3-13-13.Ā I’d say if your lucky number is “3” then today is your day! šĀ Today might also be your day if you are, like me, super excited that we have made it more than halfway through the work week!Ā Oh, and I am also super excited about the fact that it is Wednesday and I get to share with all of you my day’s eats!Ā That’s right…What I Ate Wednesday has rolled around once again!
As I mentioned last week, this month’s theme is “Going Green.”Ā I did not do very well at the green thing with last week’s eats, but I promised that I would make up for it today.Ā Now let’s see just how well I did!
Breakfast
Breakfast started off with a sweet and savory waffle-wich consisting of 2 Kashi blueberry waffles, 1 Laughing Cow garlic and herb cheese wedge, blackberry jam, and a sunny-side up egg.
I put the two waffles together to make the waffle-wich sandwich and ate a sliced Golden Delicious apple on the side.
Mid-Morning Snack
Per usual, the banana made an appearance!
Lunch
Today’s lunch was centered around this giant salad consisting of field greens lettuce, spinach, carrots, mushrooms, tomatoes, broccoli, orange peppers, red onions, and radishes.Ā I topped the salad with a yogurt-based ranch dressing.
I paired my salad with 2 Wasa Wholesome Wheat cracker breads (um, yum!)…
…and celery with PB2 peanut butter.
Snack
I snacked on some almonds before heading to the gym for my workout.
Dinner
Dinner was an awfully tasty meal!Ā I ate two slices of Mexican Vegetarian “Meatloaf” (recipe to come!) topped with a little bit of sriracha sauce.Ā On the side I enjoyed some delicious roasted asparagus.
Snacks
Tonight’s snacks have and will consist of:
roasted parsnips and radish chips
cooked green peas
fresh cantaloupe
air-popped popcorn
All in all, it has been a GOOD day of eats! š
So how did I do with the “green” theme this week?Ā Total green count: 7 (apple, lettuce/spinach, broccoli, celery, zucchini in the “meatloaf,” asparagus, peas).Ā Pretty darn good, if I do say so myself!

I know better than to read your blog when I am hungry! But I do it anyway. And now I want that breakfast. Your combinations are amazing.
Haha, thank you for the kind words! š
I was thinking about the date today! Your eats were pretty delicious today. I’m jealous!
Yes, I guess I am easily entertained by things like unique dates! š
I used to eat that breakfast sandwich when I was pregnant! Literally the exact thing except I would just use sliced muenster or provolone! Sooo good!
SO, so good! The sweet and savory breakfast combo is my favorite :).
I love wafflewiches! PB & J is my fave combo! The waffles get so crispy and crunchy. YUM!
They are the best, aren’t they??
OMG! I’m craving your breakfast like right now!! I love eggs! In any way, but I’m so lazy so I usually boil them. I have to cook some this morning with some bread! Thank you for inspiring! š
You’re welcome. I love a good breakfast!!
Love your breakfast! Cheese, yolk + jam is a killer combo…even better as a wafflewich!
You betcha! You have to have the runny yoke!
Being a numbers dork (I’m a math teacher), 3/13/13 was very cool! š What a delicious day of eats–nice!
You should definitely appreciate the interesting number combinations then! Very cool :).
Mmm nicely done on the greens girl š and that breakfast looks amazing!! I love waffles with fun toppings š
Waffles definitely make for a delicious breakfast, especially in sandwich form!
Woah woah woah. garlic and herb cheese + jelly? That sounds terrifying. I mixed a swiss laughing cow and strawberry jelly this morning and it was amazing… but I’m not sure garlic and blackberries can be friends… is this an amazing flavor combo I’m missing out on?
I pretty much any of the flavors of Laughing Cow cheese with jam or jelly, but I think that the garlic and herb is my favorite. Give it a try! š
What’s blackberry jam like? That sounds so interesting!
It is really tasty. It definitely has a sweeter taste to it as compared to grape jelly, for example.
Your breakfast looks so fun! The salad also looks great, I love big salads with lots of veggies.
I am definitely one of those people who CRAVES salads. I always feel so weird when I say that!
Good job with the green theme!!! I’m so intrigued by that breakfast sandwich…I may be experimenting soon.
You definitely should!!
I think you did great too on eating greens! Also I didn’t even notice yesterdays date but probably for the best- 13 is unlucky š
I am actually one of those people who finds 13 to be a “lucky” number. Is that weird? š
Using a waffle as a sandwich is a great idea! And yes, I totally noticed the date. I also thought 3-11-13 was pretty good because it’s a palindrome.
3-11-13 is really awesome, too! I especially like that since my name is a palindrome! š
Definitely did an awesome job getting in those greens! I love the wafflewich too, one of my favorites that I sadly haven’t had in awhile! Gotta fix that tomorrow morning.
You definitely should. You cannot forget about the good ‘ole waffle-wich!
I want that breakfast! I’m totally making it tomorrow.
Let me know how it turns out for you!!
Your breakfast combo just blew me away! love it! sweet and savory will always have my <3
Agreed. It does not get much better than a sweet and savory breakfast!
I’d been thinking about the date yesterday too — I randomly found myself thinking “Oooh, wouldn’t it be cool to have a baby on a numerically awesome date like 3-13-13?” …As if anyone could even remotely plan for that. Aaah, my brain is a scary place sometimes.
On a less ridiculous note, your salad looks absolutely gorgeous, and I love the sweet and savory breakfast combination. Well done!
That would be so cool to have a baby born on that date or to get married on that date. It sure would be easy to remember, too! š
They have a new wasa crisp n light???? ahh i need to get those, I love wasa
YES! They are really good, too!
Seriously can’t wait for that Mexican meatloaf. It looks amazing. I am definitely going to take that recipe and make me some asap!
It is really good. I am already looking forward to leftovers :).
Way to go one eating green!! I love the look of that waffle egg sandwich….totally trying that soon!
Please let me know if you give it a try!
The texture of your meatloaf looks very impressive! Can’t wait to see the recipe. I noticed that too about today’s date. It sounds important or something. š
Thank you! I will be posting the recipe soon :).
love that breakfast combo !! def gotta give it a try..and your dinner looks so good i cant wait to see that recipe!
The breakfast was awesome. You should definitely try it!
I think you did a grat job of eating greens – wish I could do that haha. Also, a sweet jam with eggs? I’ve never tried that.
The sweet jam combined with the savory eggs is amazing!
I have got to try the roasted radish chips sometime. Sounds soo good! I’m sad that all the winter root vegetables and squash are slowly dwindling away. I love winter veggies but… I’m pretty excited for Spring/Summer produce!
