Have you entered my thinkThin giveaway yet?
It’s been a while since I’ve gone through a full day’s worth of my eats as opposed to my fun dinners out so I figured now is a good time to do just that! Although these meals aren’t exactly the prettiest, I think they’ve been pretty darn tasty!
Breakfast
My favorite protein TVP oats topped with some winnings! A couple months ago I won some amazing Nut-Tritious Foods nut butters from Kelsey. This batch of oats is topped with 1 tsp cashew butter, 1 tsp almond butter, and 1 tsp chocolate-hazelnut butter. And of course my apple quinoa granola from Michele’s!
Mid-Morning Snack
I made my own fruit on the bottom with frozen blueberries!
And then it froze some of my yogurt too.. ha. Whoops!
It was quite good, though, once I mixed it up and crumbled a little dark chocolate cherry Soyjoy bar on top!
Lunch
I always thought frozen veggie burgers were gross until I actually tried some [go figure..]. This is a Dr. Praeger’s California veggie burger and I must say I love it! I also love those little crunchy peas on top.. way better than croutons, if you ask me [you did. I heard you.] The dressing combo was a little buffalo sauce and a drizzle of caesar. It was a good one!
Afternoon Snack
I love these crunchy bars! They have a pretty short list of ingredients and are just slightly sweet. They’re also good when I’m looking for something a little lighter and not totally packed with protein if I’m not working out at night.
Dinner
You may recall I made this healthy jalapeno sweet potato chili a couple months ago. Well, it made A TON and I happily froze 3 containers of it. Now that we’re moving, I’ve been defrosting and eating this a lot. This was actually my last bowl of it, topped with some more of my favorite veggies [prepared by my loving husband.. love when he cooks!]
Evening Snack
I think we’re getting to the end of apple season because my apples have been getting less and less crisp. I guess that means it’s time to bake with them! 😉
Food for Thought
Could you eat the same thing for breakfast, lunch, or dinner for days at a time?
What is your favorite fruit?
I can and I do. : ) Breakfasts for me are the same couple of things on repeat. That is fine with me because a) they are tasty and delicious and I love them b) I know they will keep me satisfied with the combo of grains/proteins/healthy fats.
I hear ya.. I always think about trying something new since I’ve pinned so many breakfasts, but I just love my oats and pancakes!
i’ve been meaning to try those veggie burgers. glad to hear they’re good!
Definitely give them a shot!
Same here with the apples! I was just thinking I need to make a crisp or something with them!
Totally. The flavors still awesome but just not as crispy.
Don’t tell me that apple season is ending – so sad!!!! All of your food looks delicious. I never would have thought of buffalo sauce + Caesar! I can eat the same thing for breakfast and lunch over and over again, but for some reason I prefer to switch up my dinners!
I know, the end of apple season is a sad time for me too. I love the caesar and buffalo sauce.. it’s like buffalo wings with ranch. But I like caesar better 🙂
they used to have those veggie burgers in my college cafeterias and sometimes when i couldn’t find any lean protein options i’d have one! they were only ok to me. i always compare them to veggie burgers i get out (homemade ones that is) and so i never really bother to buy frozen varieties for home. i do enjoy veggie patch falafel balls though and i freeze them to defrost for when i run out of any other protein in the house!
that homemade fruit on the bottom yogurt is such a good idea and i am in love with those cherry soyjoy bars. it’s been eons since i had one! speaking of bars, i did not know think thin made crunch bars. i bet those probably have less sugar alcs and would hurt my stomach less! must try.
mmm your dinners are always so similar to mine 🙂 you know i love them.
Well of course nothing compares to a homemade veggie burger, but these are good in a pinch! I like to warm them up in the toaster oven so they get nice and crispy on the outside 🙂
I was surprised by how much I liked the Soyjoy bars, especially crumbled on yogurt or microwaved. ThinkThin also has a chocolate coconut mixed nuts crunch bar that you would love!
I could probably eat oatmeal every single day…oh wait I do 😉
Also I’ll have one of each please! You eat so well! Come feed me and I’ll send you cornbread for years!
Haha I do too.. it’s just so delicious and comforting, especially on a chilly morning. And I think we could make a deal 😉
I probably could eat the same meals every day for a week…then I’d get so sick of it!
I will be trying out those oats…..everytime you insta-d it I’d get oat envy :p
Oh you should definitely try the oats! I keep thinking I’m gonna switch it up and make my pancakes or something else but I can’t stop!
Ohmagaaaawd I love your pictures. Keep it up!!
Thank you so much!
I am a total creature of habit and absolutely eat the same breakfasts and lunches for days, months at a time. Dinner I switch up a bit…I recognized the Dr. Praeger burgers – I really like them too and always have them in my freezer. Their meatballs are good too – basically the same as the burgers just rolled into balls.
Ooh I haven’t seen the meatballs, I’ll definitely keep my eyes open!
I always end up doing this! I go for days at a time and get into the same foods and then try to switch it up every few weeks : )
I’m usually pretty good about switching up dinner, but breakfast and lunch are pretty consistent. And delicious.
