Breakfast: A large bowl of fruit- Watermelon, peaches, orange, and strawberries
Lunch: I ate my left over Veggie burger from yesterday. I put the bun in my toaster oven and microwaved the patty. It tasted just as good as yesterday! I planned on eating a salad afterwards but I was so full I didn't want one.
Snack: Nathan and I shared a cup of guacamole with those delicious Beanitos (Black bean chips)
2nd snack: a handful of this yummy mix (I'm allowed 1 oz. of nuts/seeds per day)
Dinner: A spinach & romaine salad topped with strawberries, raisins, a few walnuts and balsamic vinegar
Dessert: I made an Eat to Live recipe called Yummy Banana Oat Bars - Here is a picture of all the ingredients...
I didn't have date sugar (I couldn't find it at Whole foods) so instead I used a drizzle of Agave Nectar to add a little sweetness. I also made my own applesauce (it was actually some I already had made for Bella so that worked out!) by chopping up an apple and steaming it in a little water in the microwave then pureed it in a blender. It tastes really good, actually better than store bought applesauce and it doesn't have ANYTHING added...it's literally just apple. I also put those walnuts in my bullet and gave those a quick chop to make them tiny.
The recipe calls for a 9x9 square pan, I couldn't find mine so the round pan was the next best thing...here is what it looked like all mixed together and mushed in the pan.
Miss Bella Rae was watching my every move...maybe we have a future cook on our hands??
Finished product! They are definitely more breakfasty than desserty and could be a little sweeter for Nathan and I's palate. Maybe adding the Agave nectar on top would be better? Or perhaps I just need to search harder for the date sugar (whatever that is!) haha But all in all they are tasty and I'm sure very filling if you ate a couple of slices for breakfast.
