Happy Saturday

April 17th, 2010 · 1 Comment · Breakfast

Good morning! Today is a work day for me, so I grabbed a quick breakfast, and I’m heading out the door. 15-grain bread topped with almond-flax butter and Crofter’s Superfruit spread- I love that stuff – plus berries. Hope you have a great Saturday….see you later!

Happy Monday

April 12th, 2010 · 3 Comments · Breakfast

Since I’m working late tonight, I’m going in a little later this morning, so I had the chance to enjoy a slower breakfast at home…such a treat. 2 Van’s multi-grain waffles topped with raw almond butter, blueberries, and a drizzle of syrup. Delish. Off to work…busy day ahead. Tonight is our last weight loss class of [...]

A day of eats

March 24th, 2010 · 2 Comments · Breakfast

It isn’t that unusual for me to post all of my daily meals, but today I thought I’d post everything….meals, snacks, nibbles. When Heather began posting her Week of Eats, I started thinking more about the goal of my blog. Heather received over 100 comments about her daily food choices one day- too much, too little, [...]

Healthy Convenience Foods?

March 16th, 2010 · 9 Comments · Breakfast, Dinner, Lunch

Today’s meals were all about convenience. I have several go-to convenience meals that I reach for on busy, or lazy, days. I think I’m still having a hard time catching up from my lost hour. Aren’t we all? Breakfast was Starbucks oatmeal topped with a bit of brown sugar, nuts, and raw almond butter + coffee [...]

Morning on the run

March 15th, 2010 · 1 Comment · Breakfast

Happy Monday! I typed “Friday” first….wow, was that a slip or what? I know where my brain is already. Monday’s are usually crazy in my world…busy days in the world of weight management. I started the day with 2 slices of multi-grain toast with crunchy flax almond butter + banana + an orange for a [...]

Best Breakfast Ever

March 8th, 2010 · 2 Comments · Breakfast, Dinner, Lunch, Recipe link

Sunday started with one of my favorite breakfasts ever. Kath’s Whipped Banana Oats topped with dark chocolate chips, blackberries, and 2 kinds of almond butter. Deelish. I follow Kath’s recipe exactly, except I don’t add the chia seeds. It turns out perfectly every time. After church, we went to lunch at the Smoky Mountain Brewery. [...]

Something old and Something new

February 17th, 2010 · 4 Comments · Breakfast, Dinner, Lunch, Recipe link

My breakfast and lunch were repeats of yesterday…if it isn’t broken…don’t fix it. Starbucks perfect oatmeal + almond butter + coffee. Leftover Greek chicken salad for lunch. After repeats for breakfast and lunch, I got inspired to try a new recipe for dinner. So, I stopped at EarthFare on the way home to pick up [...]

Lunch ideas?

January 19th, 2010 · 5 Comments · Breakfast, Lunch

Today started as a manic Tuesday…I had an 8 am appointment at the wellness center, which meant I really needed to leave home by 7:15 at the latest. I am so not good with morning appointments, especially on days right after I’m at work late. But, I made it- with no breakfast though. After my [...]

Oats in a Jar in the Car

January 7th, 2010 · 6 Comments · Breakfast, Dessert, Lunch

I made one of my favorite breakfasts this morning: oats in a jar. I love whipped banana oats, topped with dark chocolate chips and blueberries. I was running late, as usual, and OIAJ was a perfect travel food! Today was non-stop. My co-worker, Heather, and I did a lunchtime orientation for the class of dietetic interns [...]
