I guess this isn’t just Wednesday, but these are the meals I have been eating. I am fairly in a routine and tend to eat a lot of the same meals. Sometimes when you are busy you just fall back on the stand-by meals, right? I did try a new breakfast pancake:
I used the Bisquik Heart Smart:
- 1/4 Bisquik mix
- 5 grams protein powder
- 1 tablespoon egg whites
- dash of cinnamon (or multiple dashes, I like a lot)
- 2-3 tablespoons of almond milk
Just mix it all together. The milk you can add enough to get the batter to pancake consistency. I cooked it as one big pancake 😀  Topped with the apple topping I like to make so much.
We were at Panera Bread with my folks on Sunday and instead of my usual bagel, I got the Power Oats. It is steel cut oats with quinoa:
This was pretty good, actually. Makes me want to cook more quinoa. Which we have, I just haven’t cooked it. Â <—– lazy.
Lots of yogurt for lunch with cereal and fruit. I use plain Fage as the flavored yogurts are too sweet for my liking.
I am on a ground chicken train for dinner lately. If I buy a pound of ground chicken, I am the only one that will eat it, so that means at least 4 meals in the week will have the chicken:
That’s laughing cow on top. I just mashed it on there with a fork. Food stylist I am not.
If it’s not chicken, it’s usually eggs:
I think I mentioned this one before, we did a stir fry with some of these:
I cooked up some stir fry frozen vegetables and we put it on top of rice.
These were actually good for fake meat. 😀  It’s nice when John and I cook together and eat the same thing. I don’t care for the meat analogues very much (John does) and I like a lot of protein, so I still eat meat.  Not to mention I like meat, although I do eat vegetarian frequently.
It’s warmer weather now, so we walk downtown for Friday night beverages. This last time we split a flight, which is five 4 oz beers. So you only end up with about 10 ounces, but it’s fun. I don’t usually want a whole pint anyway.
And there is still the bagel.
This was from this morning. The baker ran out of regular sesame seeds, so I got a half black and half white! I think they probably gave this one to me since I’m a regular there and don’t care. It’s a yin-yang bagel.
Lots of riding, too:
So that’s what I’m eating!
If you want to see a peek of how the garden path is doing, I did a post on my garden blog.
I am hungry now!! 🙂 I am a creature of habit with food too! I am lazy with food so I really don’t want to mess wit it but I have changed a bit! 🙂
I have tried the Gardein before & not bad….
I have not had a bagel in forever – need! 🙂
That pancake looks yummy. I eat the same things over and over – some might say that’s boring, but hey – if you like the same food, why not eat it?
I have a few things I keep in rotation for breakfast and lunch simply because they are the easiest things to tote to work. Dinners I try to vary because if I get food boredom, I’m more likely to go looking for extras that I do not need.
I think your bagel place should keep that bagel on the menu lol!
The place where I went with my Mom for lunch for Mother’s Day had 5 ounce pours which was perfect – just a taste and it stayed cold!
Good grief–you reminded me of something I used to make all the time, and had completely forgotten about–the steel oats/quinoa combo! I will have to make that again. As I recall, it keeps well in the fridge, so once you spend the time making it, you’ve got three more “instant” meals ready to go.
If there’s no chicken or broccoli or eggs I would worry about you 🙂
My breakfast on weekdays is almost every day yogurt with fruit and cereal.
I often bring lunch to work, today I made a Greek salad that I brought. I always make two portions of my lunch for 2 days.
Dinner, well no need to explain my dinners to you, you see it often enough.
I do want to try my chicken the way you make it. Just plain grilled chicken is kind of boring, this is a nice spicy touch.
