    What I Ate Wednesday

    Published Jan 4, 2017 Β· Modified Nov 8, 2021 Β· by Alexis Joseph Β· 16 Comments

    Oh hi hello howdy!

    smoothie

    I hadn't had a smoothie for breakfast in a whiiiiile. Why? Because we've been on a major pancake kick lately (either Simple Mills or Bob's).

    We love them topped with heaps of DIY blueberry chia "jam" (basically I microwave a bowl of frozen Wild blueberries till bubbly, stir in some chia seeds, and slather the thickened yumminess on the pancakes), almond butter, and a drizzle of pure maple syrup. Sometimes we have organic eggs with avocado on the side with the pancakes, sometimes not.

    The boyf wokeΒ up feeling kind of achey and lovingly asked if I was making a big batch of smoothie for the two of us, so of course I had to deliver! Into the blender went a big ripe banana, ΒΎ cup frozen Wild Blueberries (I don't really measure), ΒΎ cup frozen pineapple, a spoonful of organic peanut butter, half an avocado, a couple big leaves of de-stemmed collard greens, a cup of frozen spinach, a cup of frozen cauliflower, and half a golden beet. It was super thick and creamy and not overly sweet, which we both love.

    I also had a couple cups of coffee with almond milk. I am never without coffee.

    app

    Excuse the snapchat pic!

    We had a late morning meeting at The Crest ClintonvilleΒ and of course Abed ordered a dreamy smoked trout dip with local sourdough and lemon gel (sounds odd, tasted amazing) so I enjoyed some of that as a little app beforeΒ lunch.

    Lunch was none other than The Alchemy Superfood Roll that we created in partnership with FUSIAN!Β The brown rice seaweed roll comes withΒ roasted tofu, pickled beets, avocado, and sweet potato topped with dragonfruit sauce, puffed quinoa, and micro kale. I added jalapeΓ±o and srirachaΒ because...duh. This was such an awesome roll to conceptualize and it's been so funΒ to go there and actually order it!

    pancakes

    Snacks included a big organic Fuji apple plus a couple Mini Blueberry Walnut Pancake Muffins smothered in strawberry jam...

    hummus

    ...plus hummus and brown rice cakes.

    Later on I whipped out some crunchy carrots. The boyf and I pledged to take carrots and an apple each day to work. Hooray fruit and veggie intake!

    carrots

    I made this Black Eyed Peas and Greens CasseroleΒ with Cornbread CrustΒ from my girl Alex as a veg dish for New Years and it was a huge hit! I used two cans of black eyed peasΒ instead of driedΒ and a huge bag of pre-chopped collard greens. Next time I think I'll addΒ jalapeΓ±os.

    Dinner was a a couple helpings ofΒ casserole, leftover whole roasted brussels sprouts (roast with avocado oil, salt, pepper, and garlic at 400 till browned, flipping after 15 minutes), and our usual salad with organic romaine, tomatoes, carrots, and cucumber.

    dinner

    I made Kylie's Thick and Chewy Coconut Flour Chocolate Chip CookiesΒ for dessert (what would Tuesday or any other day be without dessert?) and they were SO perfect. I swapped out butter for coconut oil and subbedΒ coconut sugar for brown sugar. Worked like a charm! I met KylieΒ at FNCE and I'm pretty much hooked on her, her food, and her quest to end disordered eating.

    Happy hump day, dearies!

      I'm usually a die-hard oatmeal girl in the morning, but the pancakes + blueberry chia "jam" sounds divine!
