    What I Ate Wednesday

    Mar 1, 2017 • What I Ate

    Hello lovelies! Look at that face though… I can’t even take his cuteness!!

    Hope your week is going fab. Let’s get into my yummy plant based eats for this What I Ate Wednesday. 


    HYDRATION:

    Every single morning, water, water water, before anything else, as you guys already know!

    I drink 24 ounces (3 cups) of filtered water every single morning, usually with 1/2 lemon (and I’ve been adding a splash of cranberry lately, just for fun!). I use this ginormous mason jar all day every day because no one cup is ever big enough?? Plus, I can measure out my water intake and try to drink 3 mason jars filled with water per day. Water helps to rehydrate the body after a long night?s rest when we get dehydrated and is so essential to wake up the body and start on the right track. Also, my skin looks so much smoother and stays clear!

    Then a couple cups coffee… hashtag coffee addict, with my fave non-dairy creamer (and you guys ask me all the time) so I use ? the Silk Almond Vanilla Flavored Creamer (check out my superfood coffee elixir recipe too!).

    BREAKFAST:

    It was feeling warm and spring-like… so it was a Mermaid Smoothie Bowl kind of morning 🙂 this bowl has frozen bananas, spinach, avocado, spirulina, plant based protein and a little almond milk – topped with bloobs, coconut and chia superfood topping. Best smoothie bowl I’ve had in a long time!

    What I Ate Wednesday

     

    SNACK: 

    A little while later, when doing emails and working on my upcoming Meal Plan (which has turned into a 2-week plan), I snacked on an apple and coconut larabar!

    What I Ate Wednesday

    LUNCH: 

    Lunch was a very typical glow bowl. With a mix of kale + romaine, quinoa, roasted sweet potato (with paprika!), black beans, probiotic kraut (from Farmhouse Culture) and tahini sauce (recipe here). The yummiest!

    What I Ate Wednesday

     

    SNACK:

    While making a quick stop at target, I needed a little pre-workout fuel, so I snacked on these Emmy’s Dark Cocoa Coconut Cookies. I pretty much died and went to heaven… these are amazing and I need to re-create them.

    What I Ate Wednesday

    DINNER:

    After a booty workout at the gym, I made a bowl with a mix of brown rice, zucchini, asparagus and chickpeas with italian spices and lemon juice. I had another small bowl after, along with this BluePrint kombucha which I loved. 

    What I Ate Wednesday

    I had a small bowl of popcorn mixed with a handful of vegan chocolate chips afterward too… not pictured tho… too lazy ha.

    ?

    Hope you enjoyed this What I Ate Wednesday!

      I’m kind of late to the smoothie bowl game, but I started making them recently and am loving them! Everything looks delicious as always! And Taz is too cute. 🙂

    HANDLE NAME CHANGE!! I’ve been wanting to do th HANDLE NAME CHANGE!!

I’ve been wanting to do this for a while as a fresh start with all the changes to my “brand” in the last year. It feels right to just use my name 😀 (fun fact: I haven’t taken my hubbys last name yet because of business paperwork that I’m too lazy to figure out 😅 name changes are complicated) 

@theglowingfridge started out of my love for the plant based lifestyle but so much has changed in the last 9 years and I’ve been itching to update. Nothing else will change and my blog will still remain as is, if you still use my recipes and such. Love you all and thank you for supporting me through all these changes 🤍🤍🤍

    what I eat for gut health, happy hormones, healthy what I eat for gut health, happy hormones, healthy skin & hair, and to be a patient mama 🖤

When my blood sugar is on a nasty rollercoaster, I’m not the best mama that I know I should be for my girl. I’m more irritable and short. So I prioritize protein, healthy fats and carbs at each meal. This helps me feel balanced and provides energy to play and chase after her all day! I need all the fuel I can get.

- breakfast tacos with pastured eggs
- collagen king coffee ☁️ 
- leftover homemade chicken fried rice 
- swedish meatballs & gf pasta & green beans
- my homemade tahini maple cookies (I have a reel with the recipe!!) but I’m truly addicted 🍪 
- always sipping on @gerolsteiner_usa 💧

    I don’t get ready everyday… But when I do I f I don’t get ready everyday…

But when I do I feel better, duh! And more confident. More productive. Happier in general. Of course I have super lazy days but I try to get myself together because I’m more likely to leave the house, you know mamas? I hate when people ask “why do you get ready if you’re home all day”.. 

I’m sharing different content like this because I feel like it and don’t want to be stuck in a box 😀

    I mean if you drink it everyday… It should be o I mean if you drink it everyday…

It should be organic, mold-free, tested for mycotoxins and taste delicious, etc. King coffee goes a step further with a therapeutic dose of reishi spores, the most powerful and potent part of reishi mushroom! Most other companies use the lucidum part of reishi, in case you’re wondering 👑

    passes & smashes for gut healing ❤️‍🩹 I passes & smashes for gut healing ❤️‍🩹

I have many more passes too.. extreme diets, too many supplements, gluten, juice cleanses, eating too fast and not chewing enough.. the list goes on!

Gut healing takes a multi-faceted approach and it’s never just one supplement to heal or one thing to do.

It takes time, patience and grace! And working alongside a practitioner you feel called to 🙏🏼
