WIAW-Spinach Edition

I can't believe it's already Wednesday and time for another WIAW inspired by Jenn at Peas and Crayons.

Yesterday for breakfast I enjoyed a green monster with berries, soy milk, chia seeds, flax seed and protein powder. It has been very hot here in Boston the past few days so smoothies have been my friend.

 


Lunch was a sandwich with spinach, rotisserie chicken and strawberries on two pieces of Arnold's ten grain bread toasted. I am on a spinach kick lately I want it on everything. This was a little messy to eat but it was so worth it.

On my trip to Whole Foods on Sunday I picked up some more vegan veggie raviolis because they were so good last time. Even though it was 95 degrees yesterday I had to turn on the stove and cook these because they are just too good. If you have a Whole Foods near you then you need to try these.



For dessert I had mix of espresso and vanilla bean frozen yogurt with a few mini peanut butter cups but I ate it before I could snap a picture, sorry. I've had a small cold and sore throat  for the last week so anything cold like fro yo makes it feel better.

Question: What is your favorite fro yo combination?

WIAW-New Obsession

It's that time of week again for WIAW post inspired by Jen at Peas and Crayons.

Peas and Crayons

I have been obsessed with Green Monster smoothies since I finally had the courage to try one. I think I have had one every morning for the past week.

Ingredients in my Green Monster
 
 

Lunch was a spinach salad with shredded rotisserie chicken, strawberries, green apple and walnuts (no dressing) with a side of whole wheat bread.


Dinner was supposed to be chicken pot pie but I ended up running and having a personal training session last night so instead Joe and I just grabbed dinner. I got a Thai chicken wrap from The Healthy Kitchen and it was delicious. The wrap had chicken, shredded carrots, cucumbers, brown rice and peanut sauce.


Question : Do you like dressing with your salad or do you eat it dry?

WIAW

Welcome to another week of WIAW. Hop on over to Peas and Crayons to join in on the party.

Yesterday morning I finally made a green monster smoothie and it was delicious. It will be the first of many for sure! In the smoothie I had almond milk, chia seeds, protein powder, spinach,  raspberries and ice.
 
 

Lunch was a mango salad with chicken from Qdoba with extra guacamole. I can't believe how many people don't like guacamole, I wouldn't know what to do without it.



Dinner was easy and so delicious. I had bought some homemade raviolis from Whole Foods which I made with Newman's Own Fra Diavolo sauce (which I want to try on pizza next). I bought plain cheese raviolis which were just okay (I tried one) and vegan veggie raviolis which were to die for! If you live near a Whole Foods you need to try these.

 

Question: How do you feel about guacamole, love it or hate it?
