Ellooooo mates!
Holy moly my booty is sore. TMI? I think not. Honesty is the best policy.
The combination of back to back Barre3 classes plus a 6am Body Pump class yesterday morning has been quite a rough one for my behind. Being sore is like waiting a long time for food at a really good restaurant. It sucks in the moment but it the end it’s SO worth it.
I couldn’t wait for my smoothie after that sweaty Body Pump sesh. This one had frozen bloobs, Skoop brown rice protein, a date, cacao, frozen spinach, and almond milk. AKA the usual.
Did you know I get my frozen blueberries on Target? It’s a hugh-jass bag for ten bucks. Yes please.
I roasted some sweet potatoes before I got in the shower and ate nearly half the pan when I got out. The sweet potato struggle is SO real. I recently discovered the golden ones at the store and OHMYGAWD. I think I like them even more than they’re orange counterparts.
By the way, today is the last day to enter the Veestro giveaway! I know you all want organic vegan meals delivered to your door fo’ free.
Lunch was a leftover avocado bean burger (all crisped up in the oven at Alchemy) over spinach with tomatoes, micro kale, and a drizzle of red wine vinaigrette.
I snacked on a big organic gala apple sliced up with cinnamon, a vegan chocolate banana muffin, and a bit of leftover spring farro (which is amazing, by the way. I make it without the oil!).
I also had decaf iced coffee with soymilk while I worked at Stauf’s all day. I’m obsessed with their iced coffee, but even half caff keeps me up all night. Weird. Then I ordered some mint tea because I always have to be sipping on somethin’.
The above picture is my coffee shop office. Isn’t it special?
Dinner was a mediocre arugula salad with beets, goat cheese, walnuts, and balsamic from Hubbard Grill. It was meh.
But it was alllll better when we stuffed our faces with hot fries and cold beer afterwards at Pint House. Yes, I eat fries. And drink multiple beers. I die for Fat Head’s bumbleberry! Blueberries everywhere.
Club going up on a Tuesday.
French fries are my weakness and those look bomb!

Hi Alexis! Happy “What I Ate Wednesday” to you! Nice work on going to BODYPUMP. I’m an instructor and just began teaching the latest release 93. Have you tried that one? Fries after salad? Always a good choice!

Looks delicious! My sweet potatoes looked just like that today 🙂 And so funny I was listening to Tuesday today and when I read that I totally just sung it in my head!

Looks delish as always! I’m the same way around sweet potatoes! Can’t be stopped!

Yesssss gold sweet potatoes > orange ones. And purple ones are even better!! I used to always bake a whole sweet potato (like a big one) at once, but I’ve stopped because I just can’t not eat nearly all of it when it’s all golden and soft and warm and delicious haha.
Drooling over those fries!!

Your smoothies always look so delicious! I’m really interested in buying that protein powder, but have had some bad experiences with the texture of protein powder in smoothies. Does this give a chalky, frothy texture at all? Thanks!! 🙂

All of the food does looks delicious. I’ll have to try the golden sweet potatoes. However, all I could see was the Tank 7 coaster. It’s my hometown brew being from Kansas City. Way to represent!

That beer looks like it is as tall as you! And those fries…I hope you took down that whole plate yourself…I mean I would have. As for the smoothie, it’s all I want this week. So good and nourishing! XO

I loved this post! Those yellow sweet potatoes are SO much tastier than the orange ones, I don’t know what it is but YUM. 🙂
“Club going up on a Tuesday” made me laugh haha.

Golden sweet potatoes are legit. I recently got a sweet potato this week that was purple on the outside and white on the inside… so I don’t know if that is technically a purple sweet potato? … but it was AWESOME!

The golden sweet potatoes are so good – they are just that bit sweeter but a nicer sweeter – you know what I mean right!?
I am the same with caffeine – one coffee and I turn into the most energetic and chatty person ever. Thank goodness for decaf… 🙂

Your eats look amazing! I always try to make black bean burgers but they usually come out really bland and watery for some reason (guess i’m not draining the beans enough), but your recipe looks super good. I also love the fries & Fat Head’s Bumbleberry beer from Pint House! It’s my fav!

I love Stauf’s! I kind of miss how you could get a sandwich at Cup of Joe though. I’m going to buy my frozen blueberries at Target from now on, what a steal!

I had homemade ice cream with Fat Head’s Bumbleberry and berry reduction once… it was one of the most memorable desserts of my life. So. good.

Okay, I’m kind of obsessed with the fact that you a) eat fries and b) ended on a Makonnen note. I mean… does a nutritionist get any cooler than this? For realllll. I love this site so much.
