I have moved back home for the summer and I'm already missing my weekly Whole food runs. Lucky for me though my mom buys just as healthy stuff so I now have a larger pantry to shuffle through (and don't have to pay for it now haha).
I needed to start today off with a good meal, because yesterday I literally ate Ice cream for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and both snacks :( oops I guess this is where most people would say #YOLO.
Any way... I thought today's post would be on my entire days worth of meals/snacks...Start to finish.
Breakfast: I woke up around 10am since I didn't work today and stayed up late last night watching the notebook with my younger sister Becca. In the morning the first thing I do is pour a glass of water or grab a water bottle. Doing this gets me hydrated and helps reduce the bags under my eyes. Once I have something in my stomach I can usually tell what I'm craving that morning. Today it was something sweet! I found some organic raw instant oatmeal in the cabinet, and decided to dress up some oatmeal for breakfast!
Ingredients:
-Better oats: RAW pure and simple instant oatmeal (1 packet)
-Craisins (about 10)
-Raisins (about 10)
-Brown Sugar 1-3tsp to taste
-1/2 Banana (diced)
-Cinnamon (few dashes)
-Vanilla extract (1/2 tsp)
Directions- follow instructions for the instant oatmeal (mine overflowed boo). Mix the rest of the ingredients in and ENjoy! OTher ideas: nuts, other dried fruits, stevia or truvia, agave nectar, different extracts, apples etc!

| I had to use my phone camera blah |
Ingredients/tools:
*Small frying pan
*large metal cookie cutter: mine was a house shaped one don't ask
*spatula
-1 egg
-1 egg white
- Chopped onions 1/4 cup
-Cybros Sprouted grain bun
-Turkey deli meat
-Olive oil
-salt
Directions-In the pan add about a tsp of olive oil, a dash of salt, and the onions. Turn stove to med/low. take the cookie cutter and place it between the onions, so the onions are on the outskirts of the pan. In a cup mix eggs and then pour into the cookie cutter. With the spatula scrap the bottom of the eggs so that new egg gets cooked. Once the egg is almost all cooked try and flip the cookie cutter over (you may loose a little egg but don't worry and just scoop in back into the cookie cutter). In between scraping the egg mix the surrounding onions. When all is cooked place turkey on the bun then loosen the egg out of the cookie cutter on that then sprinkle on the onions and boom you have a healthy egg mcmuffin! If you don't want to be fancy you can just scramble your eggs and place them on the bun, but that can get messy. I also had a glass of water on the side.

Dessert/snack: Well my mom just got back from Pennsylvania today. All of my moms family lives there, including my grandma Babi (pronounced bubee). She sent back a bag of Carmelo candy bars:)
I couldn't resist, and ate one in about one min flat! end of story!
Snack- We had dinner a bit later today so around 5pm I had a small organic gala apple+16oz water.

| Just in case you don't know what apples look like |
Dinner- Well we didn't eat til 7 tonight! My dinner wasn't anything exciting I had alot of broccoli with a pinch of salt, and Opa's chicken wings. (family recipe-pretty much salted chicken wings). I only had two wings because they were fried but I plan on having a bigger snack later.
 |
| I had 3x that much broccoli! I also had 16oz of water. |
Late night snack: Being lazy watching my shows I wanted something simple to put together! So I peeled a banana and scooped a tablespoon of natural peanut butter. yummmmm!
 |
| sweet! |
Overall this was a good day of eating...minus the caramello bar haha. BUT we are faced with sweets and rich foods everyday. If you can balance the rest of the day those little slips won't make a difference. Hope this helps!
