Hayyyy my ferocious figs!
I finally switched up my breakfast to some more seasonal fare. Lately I’ve been making my Pumpkin Pie Smoothie with Vega Protein + Greens vanilla protein powder, less liquid, and a huge handful of spinach. Then I eat it in a bowl topped with cacao nibs and Love Grown Power O’s for crunchosity. Seriously such a dream of a breakfast.
I wanted savory by the time I was done so I munched on a brown rice cake with hummus.
Lunch was a scrumptious salad combo from the fairly new Little Eater at The North Market. The wheat berry, kale, walnut, and cranberry salad and the roasted beets were my two faves. I will definitely be going back!
We also shared one of the breakfast cookies.
Before Body Pump, I snacked on part of Nikki’s blueberry almond butter acai bowl with puffed quinoa and strawberries. She was helping us fix up the menus. Time to get the Pumpkin Pie Smoothie back on the menu board!
My phone died on my way home and when I went to recharge it, it decided it didn’t want to turn back on. The screen kept turning a very shocking hue of blue. It didn’t turn back on till 9:30pm, and my dinner would have been quite cold by that time. So what I really had for dinner was a Luna burger with hummus, an egg + an egg white, roasted sweet potatoes, and Brussels sprouts. I dug through some old posts and found this old picture of my delish crispy baked tofu strips. Have you made these yet?
Bedtime snackage included two fabulously chewy Medjool dates (fresh from my trip to Yuma!) dipped in Wild Friends’ pretzel peanut butter plus a handful of my roomie’s little cookies.
See you tomorrow for an epic pumpkin snack!
Your eats always look SO amazing! I seriously look forward to reading these every week! 🙂
Do you have a blog archive somewhere on your site to look at past posts?
Okay that acai bowl looks ridic. I wish someone would come puff some quinoa for me.
And I know just how epic that pumpkin treat is going to be tomorrow, hehe. They look freakin’ amazing! 😉

I always get weirded out by the color Vega turns EVERYTHING! But I am going to have to try that smoothie! Yay for all the greens!

Smoothies eaten with a spoon are the best kinds of smoothies — not that I’m biased or anything 😉 And I have a big time crush on your snacking — dates, nut butter, and cookies are the keys to my heart.

Conclusions from this post: Phones are evil [oh yes, they are – I know from experience], I like the way you snack and I need to make a trip to Little Eater [I wish!].
