Wednesday, Wednesday… oh how I like thee! Not love, though. Love is reserved for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. But only until about midday on Sunday. At that point the Monday-eve blues start setting in.
As with nearly every other Wednesday here on Clean Eating Veggie Girl, I am celebrating What I Ate Wednesday and sharing some of my most recent eats. And since many of you have loved seeing my latest eats through the eyes of Instagram, I’m recapping my favorite eats from this last week via my favorite social media app.

I made my antioxidant green smoothie, and shared it there, one of my favourite recipes!
Love your idea for your rice cake topping, they’re such a versatile snack!

Green smoothies are so darn delicious! I don’t think I will ever get tired of them!
I really need to pick up some rice cakes next time I’m at the store. I saw your post the other day w/ all the different ideas. I loved your chunky monkey version.
Thanks Jessie! It seriously makes for an awesome snack. It’s filling and (most importantly) super delicious. I generally use rice cakes solely as vehicles for tasty toppings 😉
Are you loving your Vitamix? I’m so jealous! Jeff and I desperately need to get something that pulverizes greens
I am!! So far I have only used it for smoothies, but I am excited to try other things now, too… like nut butters!
Where do you find the inspiration for all these recipes?!?
Haha, honestly they generally pop into my head at the most random times… like when I’m in the shower or trying to fall asleep. I keep a notebook and write them all down 😉
WOW such delicious and colourful foods you got to eat!
I love your writing style, it’s very conversational and comfortable. Keep up the great work!
Thanks, Jenn! I SO appreciate that. I like to try to keep things lighthearted around here for the most part.
And yes… the more color the better when it comes to food 🙂
I really love all of your pictures. They are so artistic! & Everything looks so delicious!
Thank you Stephanie!! I have been trying to up my Instagram day… though sometimes I get lazy and it just is what it is 😉
I am in need of a new blender and have been looking at Vitamix and Ninjas lately! How do you like yours so far?
I love it!! I had a Ninja Ultima for about a year and a half and really loved it (it is still working), but wanted to upgrade to the Vitamix since it can do even more. So far I have only made smoothies with it, but I am loving it. I’m excited to try new things like sauces, soups, and nut butters!
All of that looks really good! I’m using lentils today for the first time and still have over half a bag left, so I’m gonna look into some of these recipes to use them up. =)
Oh yay for lentils! I LOVE them! I hope you enjoy whatever it is you are making. Soup is also a great way to use up lentils. They provide an awesome chunky texture to pretty much any and every soup (I love them in chili).
So many yummy eats! I love tofu dippers!
Buffalo tofu is seriously one of the greatest things EVER. I kid you not! 😉
Yum I’m coming over to your house to eat – this all looks fantastic!! Good thing it’s lunch time because now I’m hungry!
Haha! You are more than welcome 😉 I hope you had a good lunch!
Grapes on rice cakes?! Raw cheezy zucchini chips?! DROOL FEST OVER HERE.
Yup!! Both of those just happened!!
I am extremely intrigued by this green smoothie that tastes like a chocolate milkshake. Please tell me there’s a recipe coming soon!
No recipe… just the usual: unsweetened almond of coconut milk, chocolate Vega One, frozen banana, frozen zucchini, and tons of spinach!
Zucchini chips 😉 Damn good!
They are pretty darn delicious! I’m excited to perfect them a bit more and then share the recipe 🙂
Butternut squash oatmeal topped with sunflower seed butter?! ALL the best words in the english language 🙂
It is pretty darn delicious if I do say so myself!! 😉
Your new Vitamix looks beautiful!
Doesn’t it? It’s definitely my new favorite thing in my kitchen! 😀
Ahh, Vitamix! <3 That's actually going to be my graduation present to myself when I finally finish med school! <3
All that food looks so good! Now that my cough is finally gone, I can make popcorn again! <3
That sounds like the BEST graduation present! You will have SO deserved it!
I want to make zucchini chips, RIGHT NOW!
DO IT!! They are delish!
I’d like to eat any of those things. I love lentils. I got red lentils when we went to an Amish Community. It was neat seeing all the foods they had there.
Red lentils are SO good, aren’t they? I love them in Indian food and in soups!
