I love reading what everyone eats, it gives me ideas of what to eat each day.

Yesterday, I had Cereal (Cheerios) for breakfast

For lunch had a turkey pita full of veggies with feta and tzaziki sauce.

For dinner had a chicken sandwich with garden salad and raspberry vinegret dressing.

I snacked inbetween with cucumbers and carrots.

I try and drink a glass of water whenever i feel hungry and before and while I eat.

2 eggs and whole wheat toast for breakfast

peanut butter sandwich (plain) snack

noodle soup and carrots for lunch

nuts, raisins, and dried cranberries snack

pasta with arugula, zucchini and mushrooms in cream sauce for dinner

I'm about to make a pear cake for dessert

I drank a cup of coffee, 2 cups of green tea, and several glasses of water

Usually I eat a lot of fresh fruit, but with the ice storm, we're down to grapes, which I'll get into later.

Costco has these "Pink Oranges." Apart from the oxymoronic name, I just ate 3 of them trying to find what they taste like. They taste a lot like nothing.

B: Shredded wheat with 2 percent milk and coffee.
L: A fried egg open faced sandwich on whole wheat and a small glass of orange juice.

D: I have lots of leftovers at the moment, so it'll likely be either Italian lentil soup or something I call bean bolognese. It's a pasta sauce with three types of beans, carrots, onion, celery in a tomato sauce served over whole wheat linguine. There's some leftover Italian beef too, but I'll likely just save that for DH's lunch tomorrow.

Reading a lot of these daily meals, I notice an astonishing lack of veggies.

Eat your veggies folks! They're low in calories and full of vitamins, minerals, and fiber that we need every day.

Not that I'm perfect, by any means, but I try to eat at least a few servings of veggies a day.

Today for me:
B - cereal w/ fruit, protein powder, and almond milk; 2 c. coffee
S - organic yogurt (banilla)
Gym time - ran 3.25 miles on treadmill
L - kale & brown rice wrapped in ww tortilla, topped with salsa and cheese, herb tea
S - 1 apple + carrot/celery/apple homemade juice
D - turkey, bean, veggie, & tomato stew on quinoa, salad, 1 Miller Lite
S - Hot chocolate

[XMcShiftersonX]

B - Homemade blueberry streussel muffin with jasmine tea.

S - Vanilla soy yogurt.

Lunch + Dinner: Lentil-pecan pâté, apple, and red onion confit on rosemary croccantinis, a vegan French dip with caramelized onion and Portobello mushroom (as the meat) on an herbed baguette with roasted garlic mushroom au jus sauce, sweet potatoe fries, and a little bit of my husband's falafel wrap and quinoa salad.

Dessert: Three of the most amazing vegan truffles I have ever had - one chocolate with raspberry ganache, one chocolate with orange cream, and one chocolate with coconut milk caramel (My husband and I were celebrating Valentine's Day since we'll both be working).

S - Lots of organic "ritz" style crackers.
