Who is ready for another round of What I Ate Wednesday Tuesday? No, you aren’t? Well…too bad!
Oh, and watch out because I totally went against my usual “mid-morning” snack (gasp!). You better read on to find out all about it ;).
What I Ate Wednesday: July 17, 2013
Breakfast
Yes, this is a recycled picture, but I didn’t exactly think that it would be appropriate for me to take a picture of my breakfast while at work ;). You get the gist, though: a baked sweet potato topped with peanut butter and cinnamon. YUM!
I finished off my breakfast with a sliced white nectarine.
Mid-Morning
Now here is where things get interesting. I know that most of you are probably pretty used to seeing a picture of a banana for my mid-morning snack. But yesterday, I got a little crazy and ate some veggies instead. In the bowl were radish slices, tomatoes, and roasted buttercup squash. It was actually kind of a nice change up. But don’t worry, I am not getting rid of the banana forever.
Lunch
Yesterday’s lunch consisted of leftovers from Monday night’s dinner. It was a delicious vegetable and bean chili soup. I will be posting more on this in a future Friday Favorites post :).
I also at a Golden Delicious apple. So yellow and pretty!
Afternoon Snack
On my way to the gym after work, I snacked on a cashew Kit’s Organic Fruit + Nut Bar. I love these bars! Not only are they delicious, but this particular variety only contains 4 ingredients: organic dates, organic cashews, organic, almonds, and sea salt. You can’t beat that!
Dinner
Last night’s dinner consisted of a mock “tuna” salad sandwich from the Happy Herbivore on whole wheat toast with fresh spinach and onions (YUM!), a dill pickle spear, and my roasted turnip french fries dipped in ketchup and mustard. It was soooo good!
Evening Snacks
…a veggie snack plate with hummus…
…fresh cantaloupe and grapes (sorry, I was too lazy to take a picture ;))…
…and some of these:
(these are beyond delicious, by the way!)
Pretty exciting stuff, huh? 😉 Okay, maybe not, but it is Wednesday and that is exciting! Have a great day everyone!

It is exciting that it’s Wednesday! 🙂 Radishes, huh? I have a hard time eating them unless they’re in a salad and I’m going to roast some per your recipe soon! 🙂 Yay for switching things up a bit.. Have a fab day!
Yes, I definitely love radishes roasted MUCH more than raw, but I didn’t have time to roast them when I was packing my meals for work so I just went with it;).
Leave it up to you to give me the idea of roasting radishes… being the roasting queen that you are 🙂 Will have to give it a try.
Do it!! Roasted radishes are fantastic :).
I LOVE your breakfast! Such a tasty combo!
I just had radishes with hummus last night for dinner, so good.
Gotta have the hummus! It makes everything taste better, right? 😉
Those sweet potato skinny sticks?? YUM. I can’t do radishes, but that squash looks so good!
The sweet potato skinny sticks are awesome!! I cannot get enough of them right now.
Why have I never thought to have a sweet potato for breakfast?!
That fruit and nut bar sounds delicious! Though I really should work through by current bar stash before getting another one… SHOULD being the key word 😉
Oh my goodness, I hear you. I have a HUGE stash. It is out of control!
im just impressed by all the fresh fruits and veggies you eat.
I sure do my best! 🙂
Kit’s Organic?? I’ve never even seen them and I love Clif Bars! Definitely have to look for those to change up my usual Mojo Bar 🙂
Mojo bars are awesome, but these are amazing, too! Plus the ingredient list on these ones is fabulous.
They look very similar to Larabars!
I always try to like radishes but I can’t! I’m envious of you. 🙂
They aren’t my FAVORITE, but I do like them. I especially like them roasted.
white nectarines are my favvvve! i need to get some soon 🙂
They are really good right now. You should definitely go buy some soon.
I’m just seriously impressed every week, like so many veggies and fruits. I eat those but I def have a lot more ‘other’ foods too lol
Haha, I do my best to incorporate a lot in (plus I CRAVE most of them!), but I definitely have my indulgences too!
NEW CLIF BAR?! I have never seen that one, I must look for it! Sounds similar to Larabars, which I LOVE!
It is definitely similar and SO tasty! The cashew flavor is my favorite.
Feels good to switch up a snack every now and then, doesn’t it? The veggies look delicious. I usually reach for fruit as a quick snack, but I should try to grab veggies more often. Maybe cutting them up the night before would help?
Yes, having them cut up/prepared ahead of time definitely helps. So does hummus, too! 😉
I am just shocked that there was not a banana……….
I know, right? It is pretty crazy!
Those sweet potato veggie stick sounds soooooo good. I love your pic with the nut butter too. I bet the sticks would be good dipped in nut butter… hmmm…
Oh my goodness, yes. That would be SO good. Nice idea!
Is there something about this year that made nectarines crazy delicious!? I’ve never given then a second thought before, but this year I want to eat every one I see.
I know, right? They are awesome right now!
I’m reading this right before lunch and am now even hungrier than I was before!! Your day of eats look delish 🙂
Haha, food blogs have a tendency to do that to me too! 😉
That sweet potato thing sounds really yummmmy. I am not really a fan of the sweet potato but wow that really sounds like pure bliss!
You should try it! Maybe it will convert you ;).
Oh, I’m so glad it’s Wednesday too!! 🙂 I know I’ve said it before, but really got to try that sweet potato out!!! Hmmm…I think I have a sweet potato at home too! Okay…I think I know what I’m having for breakfast tomorrow!!!
Do it!! And then let me know what you think! 🙂
Eating the sweet potato and PB for breakfast right now! Love it!!!! 🙂
Heheh I just love the name ” Hi, Im skinny sticks”! I want to buy them just because of them name! : )
The sweet potato idea with PB and Cinnamon looks amazing! I just may need to steal this little delight idea from you! : )
Yes, the name is quite funny. I love it too!
I want to try those skinny sticks. Loving all your fresh produce meals!
They are awesome. There are about 6 different flavors, too, and I love them all!
Those bars look and sound incredible! As do those sweet potato chips. I wish we could get both of them here!
Are they peas on your veggie snack plate?
Yes, I am sad that you aren’t able to buy them there! 🙁 And of course those are peas! I LOVE peas, even as snacks ;).
Oh what an exciting mid morning snack. I actually had a banana for my mid morning snack today. I need to have sweet potato and egg for breakfast soon, it used to be one of my go too’s!
I LOVE a good baked sweet potato with a fried dippy egg. The runnier the yolk, the better!
Since we just got home from vacation it feels like a Monday to me! So weird! I love Kit’s Organic bars! So yummy!
Aren’t they fantastic? They are one of my favorite bars right now.
Planning on having your breakfast as my dessert tonight 😉
Ooo, good idea!! It makes for the best evening snack.
Love sweet potato and peanut butter and/or sun butter and/or coconut butter!!!
I still need to try sun butter and coconut butter! They sound fantastic.
I was going to say about your dinner… That looks a whole lot like a chicken/tuna salad sandwich! Sounds delicious!
Golden delicious apples are one of my favorite kinds 🙂
It sure does, doesn’t it? It is actually chickpeas, though!
I know! That’s what’s so amazing 🙂
turnip fries are the best, I love roasting them so they are slightly crispy
Me too!! The crispy texture with the right seasoning makes for some seriously delicious fries.
Ohhh, I gota find that Clif bar flavor. I love that its organic
It is SO good! I hope that you find it!
I have never had that type of Clif bar before–I must find!
It is really good. It is one of my new favorites!
Yum I love white peaches! 🙂
SO good!!
For as much as I love sweet potatoes, it’s a bit of a shock that I’ve never actually had them for breakfast! That one with pb and cinnamon looks so good that I might just have to try it now! 😉 And I haven’t ever seen that type of Clif bar before. I’m definitely gonna check ’em out.
Yes, you definitely need to give both a try!
Whoaaaaa girl, don’t get too crazy with that midmorning snack switch up ;). Hahaha really though, all of your food looks delicious. Especially those fries with dinner. Roasted veggies just make me SO happy.
I know, right? Don’t worry. I had a banana for my snack this morning! 😉
Wonderful job on the fruit and vegetables! Keep up the good work!
I love skinny sticks! I haven’t had them in so long.. I’m going to have to go stock up.
Aren’t they SO good? They are definitely one of my favorite snacks.
The ingredients in the kits organic fruit and nut bar sound a lot like the ingredients that go into a Larabar – I love Larabars!
I am in awe of anyone who can eat raw radishes – just cannot manage to choke them down!
glad to have stumbled on your blog
Yes, they taste very similar to Larabars, which I also love!
Skinny Sweet Potato sticks? Look delicious!! I need to find them 🙂
Yes, they are SO good!!
Sweet potato sticks look fabulous!
They are great! And there are a bunch of other delicious flavors, too!
I love those Kit organic bars from Clif and white nectarines. They may just be my favorite fruit. I want to try those sweet potato sticks!!
The Kit bars are awesome, aren’t they? And the sweet potato sticks are SO good. They have 5 other flavors of the sticks that are equally good. I love the BBQ flavor.
I LOVE The smell of bacon haha so I need to try vegetarian bacon! YUM! That sounds so delicious 🙂 I’ve seen those sweet potato snack things but never tried them! Since you said they’re good, I’ll have to try them!
Yes, you definitely need to try them! I am hooked on them right now.
Thanks for sharing! I’ve got some new ideas now 🙂 New reader.
Great! I am glad to hear that. Thank you for stopping by! 🙂
