Happy Wednesday and What I Ate Wednesday!
You have already been seeing a lot of my recent eats lately with my Colorado recaps, but I still had some extras leftover on my camera from before the trip and the few days after. So without further ado, check out some of my recent eats!
WIAW: June 25, 2014 (Recent Eats)
Now that it is almost Summer, I have been craving salads like crazy. I suppose I cannot be upset about that! This side salad contained greens, tomatoes, pineapple, red onions, and Hilary’s new vegan ranch chia dressing <– it is SO good!
Accompanying my salad was a veggie wrap with an Ezekiel tortilla, hummus, greens, tomatoes, red peppers, onions, and sauerkraut. I am still majorly loving on sauerkraut.
Is there anything better than the salad bar from Ruby Tuesday? It is seriously my favorite salad bar from a chain restaurant.
I ate a Summertime Hoppin’ John salad which I ate for several dinners and lunches. More on this in a future Friday Foodie Favorites post!
There seems to be a trend here. I am slightly obsessed with all fresh produce. This particular dinner was an everything bagel topped with hummus, greens, onions, tomatoes, and sea salt. I ate a dish of pineapple on the side.
Remember what I said on Monday? This is “people” food (look at the ingredients list!) that just happens to be something that babies can eat 😉 They are also a super easy and portable snack.
My favorite recent breakfast: Toasted Ezekiel bread topped with crunchy peanut butter and apple slices.
Travel lunch on the way home from vacation: A veggie sub and Pop Chips!
And there you have it! Lots of quick, easy, delicious, and veggie-field meals and snacks. You cannot beat that! Have a great Wednesday!

I’ll take one of everything, please! The salad and veggies wrap looks especially yummy!
Everything was really delicious… I am SO glad that Summer is back because I am actually CRAVING a lot more fresh produce and salads!
We seriously almost went to Ruby Tuesday yesterday. The salad bar is jammin and I love that they actually have an option to order just a series of veggie side dishes (which is what I do at a lot of restaurants and get weird looks for it!)
Their salad bar is definitely one of the best! They have SO many toppings and I adore their croutons! And I hear you on the veggie side option. I’m a major Texas Roadhouse lover (mostly for their rolls) but they are obviously very meat-focused. I always order the veggie side dishes there.
I totally agree- as soon as summer hits I go on fresh veggie over drive – oh and fresh fruit (all the peaches please?) – looks great
Yes!! Summer definitely means some of the BEST veggie and fruits. I am ALLL about the melons and berries right now.
I need to try adding pineapple to my salads. Sounds very refreshing!
It was a total spur of the moment decision when I saw it sitting in my fridge, but I LOVED it! It WILL be happening again soon.
Mmm PopChips and everything bagels! All that fresh produce looks great! Such colorful dishes!
I have been eating good lately! And YES to everything bagels. I am seriously OBSESSED!
Love stopping at Subway on the go! Can’t believe you ate a pouch of baby food (even if it IS people food, hahaha). I commend you.
Subway is definitely one of the only “fast food” restaurants that I will visit. And yes… the baby food 😉 I’m pretty sure my boyfriend thought I was a total weirdo haha!
Big thanks for giving me some motivation & inspiration to bring back some green into my life. For some resaon these days, my meals have consisted of NO vegetables & mostly carbs. However, I do believe your body will crave what it needs… BUT this girl wants some salads! Haha 🙂
I love that our bodies tend to crave foods that are in season… hence SO many salads!!
All of your veggies look amazing. Oh, and I’m SO glad I’ve found someone else that eats baby food. My local grocery store sells tons of portable baby food/baby snacks like that, and they’re REALLY good. My mom think it’s hilarious that I eat baby food, but veggies are for anyone at any age! xx
YES!! I am loving how many people are telling me that they have also eaten baby food!! I now feel slightly less weird 😉
Yummy – I love my veggies too and this looks delicious. And I love that you ate “people” food. 🙂
We should definitely start referring it to people food… always 😉
Your not alone, I have been craving salads too. It works for me because lettuce is pretty cheap compared to some of the other produce options! Your salads look great!
That is definitely a GREAT point! Salads can be relatively cheap meals which is great when you are trying to be mindful of your food budget… which I tend to have a difficult time doing 😉
Yum! Your salad looks great and so does your veggie wrap… I love sauerkraut too! Hmmm…. can’t say I eat baby food but I don’t judge! There are worse “fast food” snacks so I say go for it! 🙂
Haha, well thank you for not judging! 😉 You are right.. it could be worse! And I’m glad there are so many other sauerkraut lovers out there!!
That bread with PB and apples looks amazing! PB and apples are one of my favorite combos but I never thought of putting them on bread. I’m definitely going to have to try that!
You should most definitely give it a try! I was loving the extra crunch!
I love sauerkraut so much! All your veggies look so fresh and delicious, i really need to try adding some fruit to my salads.
I don’t often add fruit to my salads, but when I saw the pineapple sitting in my fridge I figured it might work… turns out it is delicious!!
