Welcome to the first What I Ate Wednesday post of the year! Exciting times, am I right? 😉 In all seriousness, I actually happen to think that food is pretty exciting, and I love seeing what other people eat in a day. I guess that is what happens when you are a self-proclaimed foodie. And for those of you who are also foodies, let’s take a look at What I Ate Wednesday the Day After Christmas (yes, I realize that was forever ago).
Oh, and before I forget: Have you entered my giveaway yet? 🙂
Breakfast
Two pieces toasted Ezekiel bread + 2 dippy eggs.
1 clementine, blackberries, and red seedless grapes.
Mid-Morning Snack
Sliced banana + peanut butter.
Lunch
Butternut squash lentil loaf (from the freezer) with barbecue sauce + dill pickle + quinoa cranberry pecan salad leftover from Christmas dinner.
Afternoon Snacks
A Christmas sugar cookie.
A giant apple. I don’t mess around with tiny ones. Anyone else ever tried the Envy apples? They are taaaasty!
Dinner
Spaghetti squash pasta puttanesca.
Evening Snacks
Celery and baby carrots with roasted red pepper hummus.
More fruit!
TJ’s Crunchy Curls. It had been awhile since I last had these and I think I am back to being hooked! 😉
And there you have it! A day of almost-vegan eats (hey, you need some eggs and cookies now and then!).
And finally, I cannot go without giving mention to my vegiversary! That’s right. I have officially been a vegetarian for two years. I cannot wait for many more delicious veggie-filled years ahead!

Happy Vegeverary! All of your eats look great! Yes, I am jealous of your giant apple 🙂
Thanks Ashley!! And I am glad you agree. Apples should NOT be tiny!
Happy Vegiversary! I hope you eat soemthing super delicious to celebrate. I’m beyond impressed at how healthy your day after Christmas was. I was in such a sugar coma from cookies that I think I slept until the middle of the day when I stumbled to the kitchen, made a grilled cheese, and then fell back asleep 😉
Haha TOO funny!!! And now I am craving a grilled cheese ;).
Well happy veggiversary to you! I always loved vegetarian cooking for how creative it was… I definitely miss the days where I could eat all veggie, but I can’t deny that I feel better with some meat in my diet.
Happy Wednesday, lady! xox
Thank you, Amanda! To each their own, right? What works best for one person and their body will certainly not be the same for another. Plus, you still get plenty of delicious veggies and eats in so I am sure you body is quite happy with your food choices!
What a yummy day of eats! I especially love the looks of that dinner and I’ve never heard of Envy apples. I’m not sure that they sell them in this area, but I’ll keep my eye out. Have a great Wednesday!
Yes, keep your eyes peeled!! They are SUPER tasty!
2 years? Good for you hunnie – that’s awesome! I’m thinking you should treat yourself to a nice dinner – perhaps your favorite restaurant or dish? 🙂
That sounds like am awesome idea, Jessie!! Thank you! 🙂
Delicious eats! That cookie and the breakfast especially made me drool. Spaghetti Squash season is unfortunately over here – sad face!!
That is a serious bummer!! I am not looking forward to the day when they are out of season here in the states. I just can’t justify spending 8 dollars on something that doesn’t even taste that great :/.
I don’t like tiny apples either!! Same with bananas. I was going to tweet something this morning like, “Puny bananas are the worst.” because my dad bought some really tiny ones for us but then I realized it would sound really dirty if I said that… haha. Happy Veggiversary! 🙂
Haha, that is hilarious!! 😉 And I agree. I am definitely the girl who looks for the biggest bananas and apples when I am at the grocery store..even if it means paying a little extra.
Your lunch and dinner looks delicious!
Thank you!! They were quite tasty!
Happy vegiversary! I like my apples as big as possible! I do buy the bags lately though of the little pink lady ones since my son likes to take them to school. I often slice them up for myself as well but in addition to my usual giant apple of the day, never a replacement!
No, they definitely can never be replaced. I actually get super sad when I am at the grocery store and I can only find small apples. It’s just no good!! 🙁
woo hoo – happy anniversary!!! I totally wish I loved dippy eggs – they always look soooo good!
Thanks Katie!! Ahh, what a bummer!! They are super tasty. In fact, they are one of the reasons why I haven’t transitioned to a full vegan diet yet ;).
All that fresh fruit looks so refreshing, especially after the holidays! Happy vegiversary! Even though I’m not vegetarian, I love being inspired by your veggie meals.
Aw, thank you Dana! That is really kind and means a lot! Inspiring others is one of my main goals with my blog.
Happy anniversary!! Oooh, that cookie!
Thanks Lisa!! And yes, it was pretty much the best thing EVER.
Those TJ crunchy curls look dangerous! I very easily get addicted to stuff like that 🙂 Happy 2 years to you!
Thanks Ashley!! And trust me, they ARE addictng! 😉
Congrats on your accomplishment! Sticking to a vegetarian diet is no small feat, and you seem to love and enjoy it so much that it’s inspiring to read about your journey!
Thanks so much Amy! I am glad you are following along :).
Oh yum, that all looks so great!! I looooove bananas and peanut butter. And I can’t seem to stop munch on clementines lately!
I hear you! Clementines and I are bffs right now. In fact, I just got finished eating one ;).
WOOOOO! Girl I just had my 2 year vegiversary in October and it feels so good! Although, I do eat seafood so I’m not quite a full on veggie eater. Still feels so great though! Congrats to youuuu beautiful!! 🙂
That is so awesome!! Yay for veggies!! 🙂
Happy vegiversary! You rock.
Thanks so much, Carly!! You rock, too! 😉
Vegiversary!? How cool :D! Giant apples all the way.. tiny ones don’t even taste that good now that I think of it. I’m a fan of Honeycrisp… does Envy have that lovely crispiness going on? Bananas and nut butter <3 – can never go wrong with a classic
I love Honeycrisp apples, too! The Envy apples are definitely crisp and also a bit sweeter. I love them!
I had spaghetti squash last night, it never gets old. Congratulations on you vegiversary!
Thanks Gina!!! I NEVER get tired of spaghetti squash either!
I had blackberries and a clementine as my night snack yesterday. Such a good combination. With how creative your recipes are I would have thought you had been a vegetarian for longer than two years.
I definitely think my recipes have come a long way from when I first started my blog. It is amazing how much I was forced to have to be creative once I adapted a vegetarian diet. Until then I just ate the same old boring thing. It has been really good for my creativity and recipe development.
Whoa, I’ve never seen those Crunchy Curls before! Definitely sound interesting! I’ve been hooked on veggie chips lately, so maybe I need a change. haha. Also, happy vegiversary!
Thanks Stephanie!! And yes, you need to try the Crunchy Curls! I love them! All lentil chips pretty much win me over, though ;).
Hey when did you get the LIKE button on here?! I would have been liking way more often had I known lol
And congrats on 2 years veg! January 4th actually marked my one year vegitarianniversary 🙂
Haha, I think it has been there for awhile 😉 And thank you! Congrats to you as well :).
