Happy Wednesday, Friends! You have been getting some Wednesday posts from me lately, but nothing that involves a chronicle of my daily eats. It is time that I jump back in and join the What I Ate Wednesday party again. Better late than never, right? And to help keep things interesting, I am going to change the format up a bit. It is What I Ate Wednesday last Saturday…backwards style!
Evening Snacks
I rounded out the night with the usual…
Popcorn…
…fresh fruit…
…and some baby carrots- because I do not think that I can go a day without them.
Dinner
Dinner was from the salad bar at Whole Foods…aka one of my favorite things ever. I met up with Joanna, Erin, Jess, and Jamie (and babies, Eleanor and Jada!) and we had a blast, as always! In the mix: a little bit of everything delicious. P.s. I just realized that I was with all E’s and J’s and now I’m starting to feel like I was a bit out of place with an “H” name 😉
Afternoon Snacks
A couple of hours before dinner, I snacked on my current favorite snack: A microwaved diced apple (drain any water afterwards) topped with cinnamon, almond butter, and Enjoy Life vegan chocolate chunks. The AB and chocolate get all warm and melty. It is AWESOME.
Lunch
Lunch was a big bowl of barbecue vegetable stew I had cooked up over the weekend- with extra bbq sauce on top, of course!
Mid-Morning Snack
Cuties! Because no day is complete without them…well, unless they are out of season! 😉
I brought back one of my old favorites for breakfast: the sweet and savory combo! I topped a whole wheat English muffin with blackberry jam, mashed avocado, and sea salt. On the side I ate scrambled eggwhites.
Breakfast
And finally, my day started out with lots of hydration from water and a green smoothie. In the mix for the green smoothie was unsweetened coconut milk, vanilla Vega One, frozen banana slices, frozen cranberries, frozen raspberries, and spinach!
And there you have it! I finally shared a full day of eats with you. I hope I did not confuse you too much with my backwards style. But hey, y’all are smarty pants so I am sure you followed along just fine!

Lol love the backwards style! I love that apple snack idea it sounds oh so good especially with the edition of chocolate.
It was SO good!! And yes…the chocolate was the best part 😉
I love Whole Foods food bar. I intend to get there this week and I already excited about it lol. And, we know I love the warm apples with peanut butter and chocolate. My winter apple bowl as I refer to it. I bet I will even eat it in the summer. So good when it gets all melty!
Oh I will definitely be eating it during the Summer too now that I finally discovered it!
BBQ SOUP??? Dream. come. true.
Haha, it was good…I wasn’t going to post the recipe because I didn’t love the pictures..but might have to anyways.
Have you shared the recipe for your BBQ stew yet? It looks delicious & perfect for a night where all i wanna do is curl up on the couch w/ a good movie
I have not, but I just might have to! 😉
Looks like a great day of food.
It certainly did not disappoint!
That barbecue vegetable stew looks delicious! You should share that recipe!
Haha, a lot of people seem to think so! I wasn’t going to because I didn’t love my pictures, but maybe I will anyways!
Love the idea of reversing WIAW!
First off, so great meeting you on Saturday – mmm…still thinking of that Whole Foods salad. I can’t believe I ate that entire gigantic thing.
I love your snack of baked apple, almond butter and chocolate chunks – sounds delicious! Think I’m going to need to add that to my snack rotation 🙂
It was so awesome meeting you too!! And of course WF salad bar never disappoints! Let me know if you try the apple snack..it’s awesome!
I’m always so envious when I see pictures of a Whole Foods Hot Bar meal! The closest Whole Foods is a good 1.5 hours away from me, so I literally haven’t been in years. YEARS! That’s just depressing!! So many good things!! All of your eats look delicious though, as per usual!
I totally understand. Before I moved to Omaha I was 3 hours away from the nearest one…talk about sad 🙁
I’m liking the backwards style! It definitely changes things up.
Your breakfast is nuts!! Avocado and jam? I’m a fan of the sweet/salty combo but this is taking it to a whole new level! haha
Haha, it is SO nuts, right? But also SO good!! Give it a try 🙂
OKAY–I’m totally trying that microwaves apple and almond butter dealio! And the blackberry jam + avo combo sounds unreal! Love the backwards style 🙂
Both combinations are SO awesome. I am pretty sure you would definitely love them both. Let me know if you try ’em out! 🙂
Okay I need to try that warm apple, nut butter and chocolate combination! Your full day of eats looks good. I have been eating popcorn every night, such a good snack! Is that the cotter BBQ stew?
It is not, but I have made hers and it was fantastic so I definitely recommend it!
Microwave apples are the bomb.com. It is amazing. They’re also good with whipped cream and a bunch of stuff that’s not so good for you, haha, but I like what you did with them!
Haha, oh I can only imagine ;). I just recently discovered them so I cannot wait to try out some new combos!
