WIAW.. Tortilla style!

Thanks to all who read my Smucker's Peanut Butter review yesterday! If you missed it, click HERE to read all of my thoughts on National Peanut Butter Day as well.

Today is not National Peanut Butter Day unfortunately, but it is Wednesday, and that should be a holiday all by itself. Because it's time for What-I-Ate-Wednesday!




IDK why this image isn't working, but...


I posted my eats so far below and I will post the rest later. Today's theme is tortillas because both my breakfast and dinner feature these awesome things. If you want to check out more of my tortilla ideas, click on this post: Just a Regular Day in the Neighborhood.

BREAKFAST
Breakfast quesadilla made with garden vegetable tortilla, vegan cheeze sauce, egg beaters and ground turkey. Plus almonds.

LUNCH
Everyone is probably getting tired of my bento boxes already, but... Not Me! So, for your enjoyment here is another Peanut Butter Lover's Bento Box (minus the pb). TL: Homemade pita bread, TR: Unsalted pistachios, BL: Turkey burger, lettuce and veggies to put in pita and BR: plain popcorn.




SNACK #1
Lots of random eats today, and lots of snacking that I didn't take pictures.

Last bit of stale popcakes.. :(



Strawberry and chocolate muffin concotions.


DINNER
Taco pizza made with broiled tortilla and topped with vegan cheeze sauce, ground beef and sauteed mushrooms, peppers and onions.

MY FIRST WIAW

So, up until this point my posts have been one recipe only. After looking through Kat's Health Corner and LactoseFreeLizzie's gorgeous eats however, I decided to check out what WIAW was all about!

And here is my first WIAW... (tell me if I did it wrong)








BREAKFAST
This morning I had to go to the hospital to have some blood work and an ultrasound done. Yay! Needles. Apparently before an ultrasound you are not allowed to eat or drink anything after 12:00 pm the night before. I'll post more about the results later. For now though, just know that the only thing on my mind was FOOD. I was famished by the time we were done, and more than ready to eat breakfast. The technician said that food tastes better after not being able to eat for a few hours. Right she was...

Egg beaters, unsalted sunflower seeds and fruit salad (170)

LUNCH
Today I tried to use up some of our miscellaneous veggies and leftovers from Christmas lunch at my Grandma's, which explains my turkey soup. I found the cookie dough cake recipe from LactoseFreeLizzie. I've been having stomach issues lately whenever I eat dairy (lactose intolerance maybe...?) so I have been looking at her blog for ideas until my test results come back.

Soup made from leftover turkey, water, veggies and garlic/onion powder (123)

LactoseFreeLizzie's Cookie Dough Cakes made with apple chunks. Topped with peanut butter! (139)

SNACKS #1
My parents finally let me eat some Greek yogurt today, to see if it affects me at all. About 10 minutes later my stomach got all bubbly, but no pain, so we'll see what happens next!

Baby carrots with peanut butter. (93)

Cooked apple chunks topped with Greek yogurt and cinnamon. (85)

DINNER
I just love Baked Falafel!

Pita bread with falafel and tomato sauce. Turkey and sunflower seeds on the side. (283)

SNACKS #2
Unpictured: Protein cookie dough cereal from Fitnessista and a few nibbles. (222 calories)

I should have mentioned by now that I have an obsession with peanut butter... I just thought my blog's title was pretty self explanatory. Below are some really low-cal snacks (1/4 c. cereal + 3/4 tbsp = 110 cal). The microwave muffin is based off of an idea from LactoseFreeLizzie's idea: 1/4 cup flour + almond milk + 1 Tbsp grain-sweetened chocolate chips + 1 tsp peanut butter = 175 calories... Microwave for 45 seconds to achieve DELICIOUSNESS)

Kashi Go Lean cereal with peanut butter. (110)

Healthy microwave chocolate chip muffin with peanut butter. (175)

Made more because yesterday's got soggy! (210)

And that concludes my WIAW... unless I have another snack before bed, which is very likely! (Edited to add: I did have an apple peel and some more bites of my apple cookie dough cakes- Totally healthy of course!)
