You know how it’s supposed to take longer to undo a habit than to learn it? Well, I’m finding that to be quite the opposite of what’s happened to me when it comes to taking pictures of what I eat. Even after 1.5 years of photographing most of my meals, I can’t seem to remember to snap the snacks and chocolate one day a week.

Still, I got breakfast, lunch, and dinner…so here goes What I Ate Wednesday.

Breakfast:

Protein oats a la Janetha- 1/2 cup rolled oats, 3/4 cup soy milk, 1 scoop chocolate whey protein powder, sliced banana, spoonful of peanut butter stirred in

I’m not as big of an oatmeal lover as 90% of the blogworld is, but I still love a bowl every once in awhile, especially as the seasons change. This batch was steaming up my camera like whoa.

Lunch:

I found a packet of Trader Joe’s spiced soybeans in my pantry and decided to incorporate them into my lunch. I ate the whole package with carrot sticks and a Damascus Bakeries flax roll-up wrap, as well as a grapefruit. (The apple I was too full for, so I had it after dinner with some peanut butter instead.)

The spiced soybeans were actually great- just a smidge of spicy heat, edible when cold and very filling.

Dinner:

Salad beast with romaine, cucumber, tomatoes, a can of chunk tuna and Trader Joe’s tomato basil hummus, along with an Arnold whole-wheat sandwich thin. I stockpiled the thins months ago when I had a bunch of coupons, so I figured it’s time to start making a dent in the freezer pile.

Not pictured:

  • Tastes of my apple galette during the test, and a small slice of it after the chef had graded it
  • A sliver of cranberry-pear pie leftover from Tuesday’s class
  • Lindt Touch of Sea Salt dark chocolate after dinner
  • Aforementioned apple with peanut butter
  • Almonds and dried raisins before bed
Kind of funny how everything I didn’t take pictures of was on the sweet side?
What was the best thing you ate yesterday, or this week in general? Yesterday was pretty dull in comparison to what I’ve been eating these past few baking weeks!
