What I Ate Wednesday #48 [Lazy Day Eats]

Happy WIAW!!!
I'd love to see a day in the life of you! Meals, snacks, drinks - anything you'd like to share!  Photograph any day you can and as much as you can too!  Some of us are taking notes on meal ideas over here! =)  [cause you guys are flipping brilliant!]



Here's Mine!

Aside from a quick run to the post office + grocery store... My productivity level on Monday?  Bordering on  non-existent.  I did however get caught up on episodes of  Dexter + New Girl so I'm certain that counts for something, right? =)

wiaw what i ate wednesday
breakfast 
black coffee, 1/2 a jumbo croissant, and a medium banana
snack
water, a PB ginger chew, and a chocolate peanut Two Degrees bar
(I wasn't a fan of the chocolate but the apple pecan bar is life-changing!)
lunch
two servings of spaghetti squash w/ my favorite DG heirloom tomato sauce
more water
recipe testing
several heaping spoonfuls of mashed cauliflower
dinner
loaded quesadillas:
sauteed mushrooms, onions, black beans seasoned and folded into two crispy whole grain tortillas with melted gouda and topped with shredded romaine lettuce and homemade guacamole.
dessert
a handful of white chocolate chips + a small bowl of cheddar bunnies
salty must accompany sweet -- are ya with me?
wiaw loaded veggie quesadillas

Obviously these only lasted a total of 2.5 seconds. I think I eat fast enough to break some sort of world record.  I need to work on that =)  Must. Slow. Down.

do you have the recipe for the guacamole? it looks ah-mazing!!

Lexie said...

I sound like a complete freak now ... oh well. Somebody linked up a second one of my posts and it wasn't me...? Would you mind removing it? I don't want to hog the spaces! I'm a bit creeped out because I didn't choose that picture or the title for the second one ... sorry you must think I'm a complete all rounded nutter.

Fran@BCDC said...

Rachel@MyNaturallyFrugalFamily said...

I hear ya on the sweet and salty combo...one of my favorite.
However what I am admiring the most is the quesadilla...YUM!  That is some serious deliciousness.

Anna @ The Guiltless Life said...

That quesadilla looks so amazing. I make pretty much the same filling, but have always just dipped mine in sour cream and salsa. Way better to top it with lettuce and guac - hello! So doing that next time! xx

Emily said...

Everything looks delicious, per usual! 
I'm so addicted to Dexter. It's ridiculous. :) 

Emily said...

Shabbotts Habits said...

Lots of delicious and healthy eats!  Love it :)

LauraJayne said...

I was resoundingly unprodictive Monday and Tuesday!  I'm trying to make up for it now, but getting caught up in all the WIAW fun!

Alicia said...

It all looks good but your dinner sounds so delicious!!

Liz said...

So... spaghetti squash. I just bought one and don't quite know what to do with it. Any good suggestions?

Jenn @ Peas and Crayons said...

Hookay so Dave's Gourmet Heirloom Tomato Sauce [you can find it at whole foods, harris teeter, tj maxx, marshalls, homegoods, etc...] is AMAZING on spaghetti squash with a sprinkle of parm --- its so delicious I literally want to lick the plate clean! Just cut it in half, scoop out the seeds and roast it face down on aluminum foil on a cookie sheet at 400 degrees for 30 min or so. Let it cool a tad and then fork out the stringy spaghetti center!

That's my lazy way of eating it, though when i want to fancy it up and get the hubs to dig in too I make this: http://www.peasandcrayons.com/2010/11/recipe-fail.html

Hope that helps girl! Thanks for the shoutout on your bloggy! Loved your xmas tree bokeh post! =)

Liz said...

Ah-mazing! Thank you!

Chelsea said...

Oh my, I want those quesadillas. Right now. And the salty + sweet combo= totally necessary. Which is why I have a severe pretzel m&m addiction.

Professor Vegetable said...

Eating too fast is bad for you!!! :-) 

I love mashed cauliflower!

Jenn @ Peas and Crayons said...

daisy light sour cream is my WEAKNESS! Though i've recently been using fage plain greek yogurt instead and they taste SO SIMILAR!!!!

Kissmybroccoli said...

Girl, I swear I deserve an award for as fast as I can put away food...I'm trying to work on it because most of the time I eat so fast that I don't give myself enough time to realize that I'm full! :( 

I went to a Mexican restaurant with a friend last night and had THE BEST shrimp tacos...think I might try to recreate them! Love your overloaded quesadilla (is it weird that in my head I always say "qway-sa-dil-LA"?) Hahaha!

Jenn @ Peas and Crayons said...
