A bagel a day…

Keeps the hunger away — more on this after this brief pictureless sidenote.

We packed up some sandwiches, fruit and crunchies for the Rockies game and believe me they were darn tasty, BUT of course I forgot my camera in the car.  Alas, no pictures but here’s a little list of what was eaten:

• Justin’s Honey PB + 1/2 banana sandwich for me
• PB + honey for my honey — it was seriously oozing out of the bread!
• Fresh strawberries
• Snyder’s pretzel sticks
• Peanuts & Cheez-Its (eaten by Joey, of course)

I made sure to get some shots of breakfast, which started with this

Frosting?  Nope — Cinnamon Yogurt!

• 4 oz. Oikos Greek Yogurt
• 1/2t cinnamon
• t vanilla
• 2t honey

And this is where it went

And oh man was it messy!  But the taste was so worth the mess 🙂

I had a few bites of yogurt leftover so I mixed in slices of 1/4 banana, but where did the other 3/4 of the banana + the other half of the bagel go?…

“Oatterific Banana Omelette”

• 3/4 banana
• t vanilla
• 1/2t cinnamon
• T PB
• 3T rolled oats
• ~T vanilla almond milk

I had a few problems with this one.  The original recipe called for 3T almond milk, but I added this last and decided on 1T because it already seemed thin enough of a “batter.”  You’re supposed to mash it all together and throw it in a greased skillet, then cook till you can flip it.

While it did start to brown on one side I found flipping to be impossible!  It wouldn’t stay in one piece so I just mixed it around till it had browned to my liking, then put it on top 1/2 whole wheat bagel + T mixed berry compote.

I wish I had taken pictures while I was eating it for lunch — it was so thick!  And very filling.  Wish I could’ve eaten it closer to when I made it so the bagel still would’ve been crunchy instead of sliiightly soggy from sitting under the oats while I was in class this morning.  I’ll definitely be making this again sometime!

These also came along for lunch/afternoon snack

And a Chocolate Cherry Chewy bar (whoa what an alliteration!)

Eggplant Parm tonight, stay tuned for more on that tomorrow

Happy Tuesday!
