Wednesday has rolled around again, and surprisingly this Wednesday came pretty quickly. This likely has a lot to do with the fact that I only worked three hours on Monday so it sort of only feels like Tuesday. Unfortunately, since I spent most of Monday driving back to Nebraska after being home for the weekend, I am feeling behind in all sorts of areas in my life. Therefore, this is going to be one of those short and sweet What I Ate Wednesday posts.
P.S. Sorry for the horrendous looking pictures! 🙁
What I Ate Wednesday Tuesday: October 30, 2013
Breakfast
#2: Pumpkin and Cocoa Overnight Oats w/ Arrowhead Mills puffed kamut cereal and dried cranberries, cherries, and blueberries.
Snack
Good news…the banana is back! I know some of you were worried last week ;).
Lunch
Salad topped with sundried tomatoes and apple Dijon vinaigrette dressing…
…and a veggie wrap on an Ezekiel sprouted tortilla with hummus, tomato paste, nutritional yeast…
…spinach, cucumbers, and red peppers. Tasty!
Snacks
2 Wasa crackers topped with herb and chive Tofutti vegan cream cheese, tomato slices, and sea salt.
I also had an orange La Croix sparkling water, a few baby carrots, and a sliced Gala apple. I don’t have any pictures of these because I somehow forgot it was Tuesday partway through the day! 😉
Dinner
More of Robyn’s Jamaican Jerk Tempeh (from my freezer) with sauteed peppers and onions on the side.
Snacks
Baby carrots, cucumber slices, celery, and hummus…
…some blackberries and red seedless grapes (I was really bad about remembering to take pictures, huh?)…
…and I finished the night off with a baked (aka microwaved) sweet potato topped with maple almond butter…my current addiction.
Have a great Wednesday. We are almost to Friday, right? 🙂

What a great day of eats. I’ve been thinking about purchasing Arrowhead Mills puffed kamut cereal – how do you like it?
I REALLY like it. I would never just eat it by itself because it is too “light?” but I love mixing it in with other cereals and putting it in my overnight oats. It tastes similar to puffed rice, but better!!
Yum I love veggie wraps!
Aren’t they tasty? And SO easy to make! I went through a period of time where I forgot about them somehow..I am glad they are back in my life! 😉
Oh that wrap looks divine! I would munch up them, crackers now too…. Mmmm And Ive just eaten lunch ha 🙂
Foods blogs make me hungry no matter what time of day it is or when I have last eaten! 😉
This week is taking forever!!!! Thankfully it is already hump day – and tomorrow is Halloween – woo hoo!!
Thank goodness!! Friday cannot come soon enough! 😉 And yes, Halloween makes the week a bit more fun so that definitely helps!
Apple dijon dressing? Sounds ridiculous.
Ugh. Three days ’til Friday. Here’s hoping it flies by!!
SUPER tasty! I’ll be posting about it in a future Friday Favorites post!
That sweet potato looks AMAZING! I have never actually combined nut butter with a sweet potato but considering I have both in my fridge at home, this might need to be dinner tonight 🙂
Oh, Becky..you have been missing out!! You must try the sweet potato/nut butter combo. It is heavenly!
I’m going to go ahead and assume that the maple AB is Justin’s, and then tell you that I have the same.exact.obsession with putting it on roasted kabocha. It’s like crack, I tell ya!
Honestly, it seriously IS!! I have been wanting to put it on kabocha but I STILL haven’t found any!! This weekend I am going to Whole Foods on a mission. I hope they have it!
We were thinking alike with the overnight oats. And can I please get one of those almond butter slathered sweet potatoes over here! Can’t think of a more tasty dessert!!
Yes! You really need to do the sweet potato/AB combo! I am already planning another one for tonight :).
Mmm a sweet potato + nut butter is always a great snack… But I’ve never had it as dessert, I’ll have to try that 😉
Do it!! It totally makes my sweet tooth happy :).
Mm I love sweet potatoes! That’s a great idea to top it with almond butter:)
It is my favorite thing ever right now. You should definitely give it a try!
I have seriously got to try putting almond butter on my sweet potatoes! I keep seeing it everywhere and It looks so good. I always like to top them with savory stuff like chili, to balance out the sweetness.
I am pretty sure that almost everything tastes good on sweet potatoes ;), but yes…nut butters are ones of the best! Let me know if you try it out!
I seriously have been having a mircrowaved sweet potato topped with almond butter as a night time snack for the last 5 days…so good!
Isn’t it? I am so glad that there are others out there who share my love!! You are a smart woman! 😉
Wednesday snuck up on me too! Love your wraps for lunch. I’ve yet to try any Ezekiel products. I think I need to change that.
Oh yes, you should definitely try their products! I LOVE the tortillas and their bread is to die for!
I love puffed kamut!! Per usual, your eats look fab. I’m always so impressed at your fruit and veggie intake!
Puffed kamut is SO good. I had no clue what it was when I first saw it in the stores, but I am so glad that I decided to try it! And trust me, girlie, you sure look like you get plenty of fruits and veggies in too!!
Oh yum! I’m sitting in class after my exam, hungry, while reading this… Bad idea! Now I’m even hungrier! I love sweet potato with nut butter, perfect combination!
Isn’t it SO good? I hope your class went well and you got to eat some tasty food after!
Hummus, bananas, smoothies? Girl, we are on the same page when it comes to food! I’ll have to give those overnight oats a try! They look simply delicious!
Only the best foods, right? And yes! Please try the overnight oats. I am loooooving them right now.
That wrap looks amazing…. I’m a sucker for anything slathered in hummus!! 😀
Oh, me too! It is part of the reason why I eat so many veggies ;).
I feel like I always pick out the most random parts of peoples’ posts but I love La Croix sparkling water!! But it’s so expensive. I’ve been subbing with TJ’s sparkling water when I’m home and when I am at school with no TJ’s I buy plain sparkling water and add lemon and lime juice myself.
I had no idea that TJ’s had some. I’ll have to check that out!
Oh wow so you can freeze the jerk tempeh? I need more freezer friendly recipes!!
Loving your monster smoothie and the wrap!
And thank goodness the banana is back 😉
YES!! I froze it and reheated it in the microwaved after it had thawed in the fridge and I couldn’t even tell that it had been frozen. So awesome!
