Welcome to the first What I Ate Wednesday post of March! If you have not figured it out, I am pretty much obsessed with the month of March. Spring is right around the corner and, better yet, so is my birthday! I hope I am not the only (crazy?) person out there who likes to celebrate their birthday month! I think we should all do that!
Let’s kick off the celebration by joining in on the What I Ate Wednesday party, hosted by Jenn at Peas and Crayons!
What I Ate Wednesday this past Sunday!
Breakfast
After a fun weekend in Des Moines with some of my old college roomies, I hit the road to head back to Omaha. On the way, I ate a mixed bowl of cereal sans almond milk. In the mix: Corn Flakes, Arrowhead Mills puffed kamut, Kashi Heart to Heart Nutty Chia Flax cereal, and Kashi Go Lean Original cereal.
Lunch
Once I made it back, I heated up some leftovers from Friday night’s dinner: spaghetti squash “pasta” with sauteed onions, red peppers, and spinach, marina sauce, and Italian seasoning.
Afternoon Snacks
After my workout, I refueled with a green smoothie consisting of unsweetened vanilla almond coconut milk, chocolate Vega One, frozen banana, frozen cranberries, frozen raspberries, and lots of fresh spinach.
I don’t think a Sunday afternoon is complete without my current favorite snack: warm diced apples, cinnamon, almond butter, and dairy-free chocolate chunks.
Dinner
Dinner was Kim’s Curried Vegetable Lentil Chili, which she shared as a guest post here a few weeks back. I was so excited to finally be able to make it, and it did not disappoint.
On the side I ate cooked mixed vegetables because for some odd reason I was really craving them. Yes, I have weird cravings 😉
Evening Snacks
Desserts for the night included fresh fruit…
…and a baked sweet potato topped with maple almond butter.
Have a great Wednesday, everyone! Go eat lots of green foods!

I love that snack idea!! Sounds delicious!
And I am jealous of the Spaghetti Squash – the season is over here, so I have to wait till fall again…..
Ahh, what a bummer!! I am not looking forward to when it is out of season here. That time is right around the corner :(.
Yum yum yum baked apple with AB and choc chips! Its one of my go-to evening snacks 😀 And that spag squash looks delish. I need to bring the squash back into my life!
I don’t know why it took me so long to try the apple/AB/chocolate combo..but it is SO good!
I’m a March baby too! You look like a super healthy eater…so glad I found you through Jenn’s WIAW link up!
Yay for March babies! 🙂 And thank you for stopping by! Don’t be a stranger!
Love the sound of those apples! I’m definitely going to have to try that out!
It is SO good!!! You definitely need to try it!
we are just opposite when it comes to birthdays…
Aw, serious? Bummer! 🙁
birthdays are definitely meant to be a month-long event 😉
Thank you! I am so glad that you agree :).
I love March because of college basketball! I keep saying that I need to try the warm apple with almond butter and chocolate chips, it sounds so good!
Yes, you seriously NEED to!! It is so delicious!
That spaghetti squash pasta looks so good! And my husband definitely celebrates birthday month haha I thought it was odd at first but now I may or may not do the same : )
It sounds like you have a smart husband…and that you are smart too since you have decided to start celebrating birthday months also! 😉
sans milk? I could never eat dry cereal 😛
Haha, it is good if you have a good mixture!! 🙂
I’m so happy you mentioned the apple with pb & chocolate snack bowl idea. I’ve been meaning to make one lately (subbing raisins for the chocolate) and just keep forgetting. Theres no way I can forget now since I wrote it down as a reminder to have for dessert after dinner LOL 🙂
Haha, it’s okay… I have to write myself reminders ALL the time. I hope it worked and that you enjoyed your dessert! 🙂
