What I Ate Wednesday

 

Good morning! 

How’s your week going?! Happy What I Ate Wednesday! We have lots of yumminess happening today, including these tasty little Sejoyia Coco-Roons  🙂

HYDRATION:

My morning hydration was a cup of water with liquid iodine – a new addition to my routine that I’m trying. Read more about that here! I won’t go without drinking tons of water first thing in the morning. It’s habit to me now, but I used to need friendly reminders to get my water in before diving into breakfast, which is why I share it here with you guys! After that I made iced passion fruit green tea from Pique Tea Crystals (pictured above). So refreshing and a nice little pick-me-up.

 

BREAKFAST: 

I start to crave more carbs in my luteal phase, and for good reason –  our bodies need the extra energy! So I opted for avocado toast using the Angelic Bakehouse sprouted bread (which I love). Then I also made a protein smoothie to tide me over until lunch.

Creamy Cauliflower Protein Smoothie:

• 2 handfuls spinach
• 1/2 frozen banana
• 1/2 cup frozen cauliflower
• 2 tablespoons chia seeds
• 1 tablespoon sunflower seed butter
• 1/2 scoop vanilla Vega Sport vanila protein
• 1.5 cups unsweetened vanilla almond milk
• 1/4 cup filtered water

LUNCH: 

Lunch was the yummiest soup and salad! I picked up the Carrot Ginger soup from Trader Joe’s and heated it up in a cup, paired with Mary’s Gone crackers. My salad had spring mix, cucumber, chickpeas, cabbage, coconut and crushed almonds, along with my Spicy Magic Green Sauce for dressing – it can be used for anything!

 

SNACKS:

Let’s talk a little about snacks. What does your work day snack look like? Mine usually consists of an apple with almond butter, but when I want something more exciting, I can’t get enough of the Sejoyia Coco-Roons! I picked them up at Walmart as they’re new to the gluten-free aisle. I will say, it’s hard to abstain from eating the whole bag! Coco-Roons are a healthier, clean-eating, non-GMO treat. Think superfood cookie meets lots of cashews and coconut, sweetened with pure, organic maple syrup (aka no refined sugar!). Coco-Roons satisfy my sweet tooth cravings in a guilt-free manner with healthier ingredients that are the yummiest!

These superfood cookies are organic, gluten-free, paleo-friendly, vegan, and kosher. My favorite flavors are Brownie and Lemon Pie! Lemon is light and refreshing, similar to airy lemon cake and brownie is made with organic cocoa and has a deep, rich, chocolate-y flavor! Take advantage of the $0.75 off ibotta offer when you purchase 1 Sejoyia Coco-Roons at Walmart, while supplies last! Also, get an additional $.50 for redeeming the rebate on 3 different shopping trips.

Pack them as a snack on-the-go.

Make them into a cookie sandwich with almond butter in the middle!

Or eat them plain when you have a cookie craving 🙂

DINNER:

I made a big batch of red lentil pasta with broccoli, zucchini, artichoke, tomatoes and green peas!

 

Plus my nightly cup of Calming Magnesium Beauty Sleep Tea before bed!
