Hellooooo! This What I Ate Wednesday’s meals were all eaten in the comfort of my own home. Due to the Democratic National Convention invading terrorizing sacking visiting my city (political affiliations aside, my city is a madhouse right now), Kevin and I are both working from home. Frankly, I couldn’t be happier about this situation. Not only am I avoiding my regular commute, I also get to spend more time with this girl.
Her yawns always make me laugh.
Now, on with the eats…
Breakfast: rice cake (pre-run snack)
Second Breakfast: smoothie in a bowl (almond milk, frozen berries, vanilla protein, spinach) and a spoon of PB on the side
Worst smoothie pic ever? I think yes.
Snack: peach
Life’s peachy when you’re not at the office.
Lunch: Morningstar Farms black bean burger, quinoa, broccoli slaw, and salsa
Snack: insert chocolate craving here… chocolate Vitatop and a square of 85% dark chocolate
Dinner: paella!!! I made my 1st paella, and I’ll share the recipe tomorrow. I hope y’all like shrimp n’ scallops!
As always, thanks to Jen for hosting the blog link-up party!

Isn’t it crazy how an entire city can be turned upside down for a few days with something like this? You would have thouht NATO in Chicago was the end of the world… #annoying

Hehe your kitty’s yawns make it look like she’s screaming at you to let her sleep 5 more minutes. Cuteness
I really wish I wasn’t allergic to cats.

Smoothie in a Bowl – Brilliant! Also, I never thought to crumble up one of those black bean burgers. Man, I’m realizing how *not* creative I am right now.
Can’t wait to see your paella recipe! I love shrimp and scallops.

I’ve never made paella either, but shrimp and scallops are my fave!

It’s pretty darn hard to find a good smoothie picture, they all just look like smoothies. But the ingredients? Yeah, THOSE look good

Look at you… homemade paella! I lived in Spain for a short period of time, so this dish has a special place in my heart. Looks delicious, can’t wait for the recipe.

The morningstar black bean burger is so versatile and I love it in salads!

It’s one of my favorites, and the price is right at Super Target.
