We are half way through the work week! How about that?! I hope everyone is having a great week.
Yesterday was one of those days where my body just couldn’t get enough to eat. I think I did a pretty good job of listening to what my body was asking for and feeding it lots of healthy foods. The morning was a feeding fiasco. 😉
It started off with a bowl of gluten-free Erewhon Buckwheat and Hemp cereal with homemade almond milk, blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, and banana. I had to remind myself to slow down as I ate this but it was SO good I couldn’t help myself! 
I really want to try other Erewhon cereals. They have strawberry crisp, raisin bran, crispy brown rice, and more. They all sound fantastic! I haven’t had cereal in forever.
For my workout yesterday I turned on Apple TV and found a ZUMBA workout led by a young male Zumba instructor who was a really good dancer. It was fun but not as fun as actually being in a class with other people dancing with me. After Zumba I completed a 15-minute intense ab workout.
Many snacks proceeded the workouts. I ate walnuts, dates and peanut butter, a banana, celery, and an energy bite. I’m probably missing something else in there.
After all of the snacking, it was only about 11:00 am but I figured since I was still hungry I may as well make lunch.
I sautéed onion, green bell pepper, and mushrooms. I then added a splash of bone broth, leftover chicken and black beans. I topped off this concoction with avocado and salsa. NUM!
After “lunch” my belly was finally feeling satisfied. The hunger staved off for a while after that!
Later in the afternoon I took the pooch for a 3-mile walk around the neighborhood. It is extremely messy around here these days. The snow is definitely melting and we are left with very muddy grass, wet sidewalks, and a dirty dog, but I’ll take it because that means spring is really here!
More snacks happened in the afternoon.
Dinner was light because I had done the majority of my eating throughout the day and wasn’t super hungry, but still wanted some nutrition. I threw together a lazy salad with mixed greens, red bell pepper, peas, olives, pickles, avocado, sunflower seeds and a dressing made with Dijon mustard and red wine vinegar. It was simple but tasty.
I am pretty much convinced that I could put avocado on anything and it would taste good. The avocado really stole the show last night.
The rest of the evening was pretty quiet and relaxing!
Question of the day: What is your favorite cereal?
Have a great day!!

MMm Kashi is great! I love how they use simple ingredients!
I SO agree. The addition of avocado makes everything better! 😉
My favorite cereal is either Kashi Go Lean, Peanut Butter Puffins, or Cascadian Farms Cinnamon Crunch. I cannot pick just one!

You know what would be REALLY good?! Mixing all three of those together. You’ve probably done that already! 😉
I’ve been hooked on gluten free Rice Krispies with almond milk and a banana for a night time snack recently!!! Your food looks great 🙂
That sounds delicious!
