I know you never thought you'd see the day when one of my breakfasts didn't come in a bowl, but this morning I went out on a limb and made good use of a few frozen bananas that have been piling up in my freezer.
Chocolate-banana smoothie, containing:
- 2 frozen bananas
- 1 serving Vega shake & go chocolate protein powder
- 1 c chocolate almond milk
- 1 T cocoa powder
- 1 tsp xanthan gum
- 1.5 T chia seeds
- agave to taste
The combination of xanthan gum + chia seeds + frozen bananas made this uber thick. Check out the puddingy consistency!
Since it's virtually impossible for me to go a day without cereal, I had to include it in my lunch.
I combined a few servings of Three Sisters honey oaties with a microwaved apple, a hefty amount of TJ's peanut flour paste (peanut flour + water + honey), and some warm almond milk. And a sprinkle of cinnamon, of course!
The result was a warm, super-filling bowl that was perfect for this chilly day. Yummy. I had some unpictured carrot sticks with lemon hummus, as well.
Time to get to work finishing my paper. I've got a buttload of baking to do this evening as well!
Are there any foods you eat every single day? It's rare that I don't eat an apple or at least a serving of cereal.
PS- Have you entered my Super Charge Me cookie giveaway?

I have an apple basically every day. And chocolate usually is in there some shape or fashion. At least lately.
I cannot go a day without eating peanut butter!
Your cereal bowl looks outstanding! Something you might enjoy: try adding a bit of TVP (textured vegetable protein) to your peanut paste for a crunchy PB texture (+ extra protein)!!!
i ALWAYS eat a banana at breakfast. it's pretty rare for me to not eat an apple or hummus, too!
That cereal sounds SO GOOD!
And p.s. chocolate almond milk is pretty much amazing.
I have to have some sort of nut every single day (usually walnuts or pecans). Love them :)
That smoothie looks fantastic! I wish I had it it sitting in front of me right now.
I think it's been a while since I DIDN'T have an apple...something feels off if I don't eat an apple at 9:30am (which is snacktime in my classroom).
The smoothie sounds wonderful. I have carrots and spinach pretty much every day between my breakfast smoothies and salads.
That bfast looks good - but cold!
To answer your questions;
I eat tofu almost every. single. day. I can't help it... but now, with this new tofu *bad* news, I may have to cut back!!
Aaaaaaaaaand.... of COURSE i have entered your giveaway, I want me some Gabriela supa charge Jaclyn cookies!! :D
I eat a banana every single day. We go through bananas like crazy at my house!
ahhh your pudding is SO thick!! i love it :) i'm also thinking you're doing such a good job cleaning out the fridge before you leave!
I eat apple and PB every day. Very rarely together though!
I usually will eat a banana or apple every day. I love smoothies but I can't eat a frozen breakfast in these frozen Chicago temps!!
im posting in an hour or so about food "obsessions"...things a person eats all the time. Lately (for the past few weeks) this has involved homemade vegan GF rice krispie treats w/ a THICK layer of homemade vegan chocolate frosting. lol.
And also lots of green food :) Man cannot live on desserts alone. But I bet woman could :)
Your smoothie looks awesome!
its rare that i dont eat some form of nut butter and oatmeal ahah. ALSO Im so jealous your frozen bananas blended well! I tried making banana soft serve and it was a total fail-the banana just sprayed everywhere and cut up in tiny little pieces... FAIL
It's very rare when I don't have dark chocolate! :P Or oats in some form or bananas. But it would definitely be a weird day without the chocolate! :D
I eat a banana pretty much every day in some way, shape, or form :-)
Ummmmmmmmm i can not go without cereal either!! I try so hard to switch it up! lol! Im addicted to cereal! If not for breakfast I have it for lunch or dinner, or dessert! I try to even buy just fiber one so I might get sick of it, but it doesnt work!
Love you girl and thanks for the comment on my dress! Yes black pumps for sure with the dress Im wearing ! xoxo
I could not tell you the last time I didn' have a banana with breakfast. And an apple (or two) is usually thrown in the day too
oats! for breakfast!
carrots- love em.
and apples!! An apple a day...
be careful with xanthum gum, i found out i have an intolerance to the goop when i had to have my stomach drained after getting a Beazor. ( yes, i know, its really werid.)
Breakfast must contain a banana AND peanut butter. Priorities ;)
that smoothie looks like a frostie! Yum!!
I have cheese every day - in some way! Usually light babybels!
I eat eggs just about every day. It's my favorite breakfast!
I have to have cottage cheese everyday!
I have a banana everyday in my breakfast! And I think I probably eat yogurt, avocados, and carrots on an almost daily basis too.
Good luck with your paper! You're sooo close to the end of the semester! You can do it! ;)
I eat probably 2 apples a day. Grapefruit is also an everyday essential for me. Bananas too...oh yeah....and...OATMEAL is #1 ;)
