Can you believe that October is almost over? I have had a great last weekend of October full of Halloween fun (more on that on Friday) and tons of delicious eats. Since Wednesday is all about the food, let’s get down to business and check out some of my recent eats!
What I Ate Wednesday: October 29, 2014 (Recent Eats)
If you haven’t tried my Buffalo Cauliflower “Chicken” Sandwich yet, you need to! It is a favorite of mine and I made it for the third time last week. I served it on a whole wheat bun with lettuce, onions, tomatoes, and hummus. I ate California mix vegetables on the side.
I am obsessed with sunflower seed butter right now. This is my favorite thing to stir into my hot oats.
One of my favorite easy lunches to prep the night before a work day is a vegan apple and sage Field Roast sausage and a small baked potato. I normally dip the sausage in mustard or barbecue sauce.
I have been loving a lot of things lately, but one thing that I have not loved is this smoothie protein powder. I am a huge fan of the vanilla and chocolate flavors, but the tropical flavor was just too much for me. It was too sweet and too “tropical” tasting. I suppose I should have expected that? If any of my friends are interested in trying this for themselves (our taste buds may differ), let me know!
Dinner one night last week was a leftover Vegetarian Runza dipped in barbecue sauce with a side of peas. This is totally my kind of dinner.
It had been over a year since I had eaten a cauliflower pizza crust pizza. I changed that last week and made a very veggie version of it. I also added on some beans for extra protein. It was so good!
It has been far too long since I have shared a new popcorn flavor find with you, hasn’t it? I am a major fan of salt and vinegar almonds and potato chips. I figured this popcorn was right up my alley. This popcorn is really good. The seasoning is perfect and the vinegar flavor is not too overpowering. I highly recommend checking out your local Target for this one.
This was the perfect Fall afternoon lunch on Friday. Check back tomorrow for my details… because vegetarians like chicken noodle soup too! 😉
Are there any other black grape lovers out there? It had been awhile since I had seen these at Trader Joe’s, so when they were there on Friday I knew I had to pick them up for snacks throughout the week. I love them! I generally eat them in the evenings as a sweet compliment to salty popcorn.
This past Saturday, I went on a girls date to Whole Foods with Erin and Joanna. We love hitting up the salad bar and hot bar every now and then. I loaded up on the veggies and added in a little bit of fruit. You need to try their avocado dressing if you haven’t done so yet. It is my favorite!
A quick and simple salad for dinner with lettuce, onions, red peppers, tomatoes, and chia ranch dressing that I topped off with a Hilary’s Eat Well Black Rice burger. I love ’em!
I know this may not be the prettiest dish ever, but it is so delicious! I made Robyn’s Lemony Ginger Red Lentils on Sunday and served them over cauliflower “rice.” And yes, that is green cauliflower!
Pitted prunes are one of my current favorite snacking addictions. I especially love the Whole Foods 365 brand because some other brands tend to be a little “too dry.” I keep these in my refrigerator and probably eat about three per day when I have a random sweet craving.
It’s not a Fall WIAW post without a little pumpkin. I made my Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Pancakes on Sunday (for the third or fourth time?) and have eaten the leftovers for breakfast a couple of times this week at work. I just pop them in the toaster and they are perfectly warm and not soggy. The toaster is a miracle worker!
I’m linking up with Jenn from Peas and Crayons for this What I Ate Wednesday post. Have a great one!
One thing you have eaten lately and loved… and go!
