What I Ate Tuesday [Breakfast for Dinner]
I was out of yogurt so I whipped up a quick smoothie for breakfast. It was delicious but I didn’t add much protein powder so it didn’t stick with me very long.
Ice, almond milk, stevia, banana, peanut butter, and vanilla protein powder. Tasty, but not filling enough.
Luckily work was pretty busy so I didn’t have too much time to spend wishing I’d packed a snack. However, once I got to the cafeteria I went a little crazy and got a little more food than I really needed.
It’s also unfortunately that I got some pretty un-photogenic food. It happens. (Fun fact: black bean hummus might be the least photogenic food ever.) This was tabbouleh salad with hummus and pita chips plus a side of chickpea and potato soup. I couldn’t even finish the soup because I was so full. Oops.
The afternoon was a whirlwind of meetings and snuggies. Yes snuggies, the blankets with sleeves. We all got a free snuggie yesterday so obviously it was a good day. After I wrapped up in my snuggie for a minute I pushed the candy cart around the office (not while wearing my snuggie) and settled in with a cup of gummy bears for myself. Yes I do live in a magical world full of rainbows and joy.
My friend Eric was in town for a quick visit so he and Alex and I stopped by the Betty on Davis for drinks. (You can read my full review of the Betty on Davis here. Hint: I love it.) The three of us split a carafe of red wine and Alex and I shared some hummus, veggies, & pita.
Yes I had more hummus. It was delicious.
We headed back home and had our small group over for dinner. We did a little breakfast for dinner thing with pancakes & breakfast foods! Chocolate chip pancakes are my favorite.
I had a couple of pancakes and a few strawberries. This day is a good example of how it is easy to load up on carbs carbs carbs as a vegetarian. Oops! But it certainly was a delicious day of eats. There’s always time for protein tomorrow!
What’s your favorite pancake add-in?

Linking up with Jenn for What I Ate Wednesday!
Blueberries are my favorite pancake add-in π loving your hummus-filled day! Now I’m craving some…
I am in the group of people who believe that breakfast should be every meal⦠but maybe I am just strange? I love that your day was filled with hummus! It is a delicious thing, so why not have a plethora of it?!
My favorite pancake add-in is either bananas or chocolate chip. But really both of them should go in if you want to make me really happy. π
Ohh I’ve never done banana chocolate chip pancakes but I bet it would be so good!
Your eats all look so good! It’s funny, because it’s my ugliest oatmeal’s that I can’t even photograph which always taste the best! I think my favorite pancake add in has to be chocolate chips. You can’t beat the ooey gooeyness of it!

Haha sometimes ugly food is tasty food!
loveeee doing breakfast for dinner! Lately Ive been all about the breakfast burrito or egg and veggie quesadilla. Just so simple to make and so healthy with all the veggies I toss in!
And I seriously cant remember the last time I had a gummy bear, which really makes me sad…
Haha I used to be more of a chocolate person but lately I’ve been loving gummies!
Breakfast for dinner is always a plus! Smoothies don’t really fill me up either. I usually have them as a snack. And gummybears are the best π
My favorite pancake add ins are sliced banana, chocolate chips, and walnuts…yummm!
That would be sooo good!
Breakfast for dinner is such a treat! I need to do that more often π my favorite pancake mix in is probably dark chocolate chips & pumpkin .. something about that combo π π Have a great week, Liz!
Snuggies, gummy bears, pancakes, and wine – did you visit heaven?
That looks like a fun restaurant! I like any place where I can get a wine flight:)
I definitely agree, it’s easy to load up on carbs as a vegetarian. Everything you ate looked so good!!
