Hey guys! Hope you all had a great time at the What I Ate Wednesday Party yesterday! You know, I heard that Ollie Oats and Peggy Peanut Butter got caught in a pretty “heated” situation back behind the bleachers…I just hope Johnny Jam doesn’t hear about this…
Speaking of oats, lately I’ve been a bit disappointed with my oat creations for breakfast, so instead of trying for like the third day in a row to create what in my mind tastes like a trip to Disneyland, I decided to forego the oats altogether and go for something completely different.
A broiled portabello mushroom on a sandwich with hummus and egg?
TO.DIE.FOR!
Go ahead, lick the screen…I won’t tell! 😉
What is your favorite breakfast sandwich combo?

Alternate title: What I Eat When Running Makes Me a Ravenous Beast!
It was so nice to have yesterday off for the holiday. At the risk of sounding like I have no life (and although it is an easily amused life, I do in fact have one), I spent the Fourth of July at home, relaxing inside out of the heat…and whipping up some delicious eats! So delicious that I knew they had to be featured on the next WIAW link party!
As always, be sure to take a napkin with you over toPeas & Crayonsto check out all the drool-worthy eats featured in this week’s partay! 😉
Pre-Run Fuel (4:30am) “Ol’ Faithful”
Post-Run Fuel (6:30am) 😉 Iced coffee with ONLY milk and NO sugar
Word to the not-so-coffee-wise: Obviously when you order an iced coffee with milk that translates into an iced coffee with milk AND cream AND syrup! And can you believe the barista looked at ME like I was crazy when I went back?!
Breakfast (7:00am) BBQ French Toast with PB & Frog Preserves
Yeah, I’ll let you know when I stop dreaming thinking of new BBQ and PB&J combos…not that I see that happening any time soon! 😉
Morning Snack (9:00am) Cantaloupe with Greek Yogurt & Granola
Pre-workout Snack (11:00am) Quinoa/Cottage Cheese/Cinnamon Love
I started getting hungry in the early afternoon, but I really wanted to go to the gym for Bodypump. Luckily, this little snack was just enough to fend of the hunger beast and give me a little energy to “pump my body”!
Lunch (1:45pm) Leftover pulled-pork from the party Friday night, steamed broccoli, baked sweet potato topped with sunflower seed butter & Appalachian Picalilly
Â
Afternoon Snack (5:45pm) Kashi Go Lean, banana, peanut flour, flax sprinkles, and almond milk
Dinner (8:15pm) Leftover Lentil Soup, spinach salad, and a brown hockey puck
And just what could that brown hockey puck be exactly?
One of Jess’s Biscolls!…aka, fluffy, carby goodness!
And to round out the evening, a little Kombucha night cap!
Whew, now I’m hungry! If you’ll excuse me, I believe there are a couple of leftover Chocolate Chip Hummus Balls in the kitchen calling my name! 😉
What’s the best thing you ate on the Fourth of July?
My name is Heather! I'm a southern gal with a passion for food, fitness, and photography...and alliteration if you didn't notice! Here you'll find a mix of random musings, delicious recipes, and hopefully a chuckle or two! Check out my "About' tab to learn more!
