I’ve been eating the same lunches and dinners each day this week so far, and they’ve just both been amazing (simple) meals, so I thought I would share!
Pre-Crossfit: Typical Berry Cheerios.
Crossfit crushed me this morning. It’s been crushing me in general these past couple of weeks. We did back squats which I was super excited about because they’re my favorite thing and I haven’t been able to do them much lately between my back and my jacked up hips. Both are getting better, so it was so nice to squat and have it feel good! The WOD was intervals of wall balls, rowing, and walking lunges with two 35 pound dumbbells. It was ALL quads today folks! I was pretty ready for breakfast when I returned!
Breakfast: Sunbutter Banana Smoothie
Back in the day, before my peanut allergy, I used to LOVE a super thick smoothie of frozen banana, a huge scoop of peanut butter, and a little milk. I actually looked back on my blog for the amounts. It’s not quite as good with sunbutter, and the half cup of milk made this a little thinner than I want next time, but this was delicious! Also now that the weather is warming up, I want warm food less!
Lunch:
I’ve blogged this salad before but it doesn’t change how amazing it is. My blueberry and burrata salad! I haven’t had a ton of luck finding burrata lately, but I found it and blueberries are just starting to be giant and sweet! Burrata is one of my favorite things. It’s SO creamy. I had rotisserie chicken, which made this all the better. I also had a bowl of Pirate’s Booty.
Snack:
Bar+grapes. I’m loving grapes right now!
This evening, I had my last soccer game of the year! We lost, but it was a close one! I’ve definitely improved a lot since the first game in the fall. Yeesh.
Dinner:
I like to think of this salad as vaguely Hawaiian, partly because we made it in Hawaii for the first time. I tossed greens in Poppyseed dressing, then topped it with papaya, rotisserie chicken warmed up with GF teriyaki sauce, and topped with mozzarella cheese. YUM.
After dinner, I went to a kitty birthday party, and brought Jackson! He was clearly thrilled.
He immediately crawled under the tiniest space. He didn’t seem too overly scared under there though. I’m trying to put him in some more social situations before we fly to Nashville in a few weeks!
At the party I had some custard from a cake and a small glass of wine while we celebrated the birthday girl!
And to finish the night, back home I had half a rice cake with cream cheese.
