Food Journal 10.28.13

I am ALWAYS being asked what I eat in a day – I should do these food journal posts more often! πŸ˜‰

Breakfast

Black Coffee + Overnight Oats

My overnight oats my be ugly but they sure were tasty!

I measured 1/3 cup of quick cook steel cut oats, 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk, 1 scoop of vanilla protein powder (half a serving) and a sprinkle of cinnamon. I mixed it all up and placed it in the fridge over night. This morning I stirred it together and added a splash more almond milk.

If I don’t add protein powder, I will add a teaspoon of nut butter and a splash of honey or maple syrup.

Lunch

Raw Kale Salad! I LOVE raw kale salads!

I use my original Raw Kale Salad recipe but I will change it up every time! This time I added cayenne pepper, red onion, cherry tomatoes and dried cranberries. Yum!!! Can you believe this was an entire bag of Organic Tuscan Kale from Trader Joes? I almost ate this entire salad for lunch! This is a good reminder for those that are going to make a raw kale salad – the kale shrinks down!

Early Dinner

I was pretty hungry before dinner (5:00) so I started noshing on my quinoa veggie patties I made a few night back. I topped them with some edamame hummus (YUM!).

I ended up eat two while I cooked some turkey patties and rice and I became full! Woops! So I gave Jordan his portion of dinner and saved the rest for tomorrow!

Now I am settling in on the couch with a hot cup of coffee and watching the Seahawks game with Jordan! πŸ™‚

Question:

Would you like to see more food journal posts?
What do you put in your overnight oats?

  1. Love the food journal post! It always helps to see what others are eating so I don’t get tired of eating the same things.

    I make my overnight oats the same, but love adding cinnamon and banana. I also add a little non fat greek yogurt to up the protein. I’ll put half the almond milk at night and the other half in the morning to loosen it up a little while heating it up, can’t handle cold oats. This is a regular breakfast when we are camping in our RV, a lot less cooking! I make enough for 3 days at a time.

Share the love!
