What I Ate [In Ohio] Wednesday
I’m not in the mood to put this in some special order. It’s basically just some of the highlights of my Ohio eats, which is appropriate, since it’s What I Ate Wednesday. (Thanks for the link party, Jenn!)
So here are the fun meals that have found a home in my tummy:
Yesterday morning was Raw oatmeal (yay free samples) and I turned it into chocolate covered strawberry oatmeal.
1/3 cup oats,2/3 cup water, 2 tbsp cocoa powder, 2 packets of stevia, 1/4 cup slices strawberries
My favorite dinner was courtesy of the best restaurant in Columbus, Northstar Cafe. And per usual, I had the epic veggie burger.
This is seriously a rock-your-face-off burger. Even meat eaters will agree this thing is amazing. And in case you want to try it for yourself, but don’t live in Columbus, my friend Krista was sweet enough to send me the recipe. The beets are what give it that lovely purple hue!
I also ate my weight in ice cream. Have you heard of Jeni’s?
Its the best ice cream in Columbus and they have an AMAZING variety of flavors. The girl at the counter must have sensed that I love ice cream, because she literally made let me try at least 12 different flavors before I settled on this trio:
Dark chocolate, buckeye state, and brown butter almond brittle. Heaven.
Other non-food hightlights:
Playing music with my buddy Brent (you can’t see the guitar and drum set that we were playing with!)
New kicks that I’m in love with (Shanna, this is for you!!):
Ice Green Tea Latte + Matcha powder (recommended by my bestie):
This sort of tasted like grass. In a good way. Have you tried this yet?
I have not heard of Jeni’s but I wish I had!
And UM. I HAD NO IDEA THAT YOU COULD GET ICED GREEN TEA LATTES!? I’m sorry for yelling– but this is out of control!
You can! I’m honestly not sure they’re on the menu… my friend works at Starbucks, and she ordered it… but they can definitely do it! I got mine unsweetened, with soymilk, (and the soymilk is lightly sweetened, so for me it was perfect). I hope you get one!
oooh that latte with matcha looks awesome *drool*
fave ice cream-well, i can’t do dairy or egg, so i roll with coconut milk ice cream and fave flavor is chocolate peanut butter 🙂
Fave ice cream flavor? That’s too hard!
Blue moon probably but it’s really hard to find!
SO many good flavors of ice cream there! My favorite ever is peanut butter cup, but it has to be like, Ben & Jerry’s or homemade.
Oh my lanta. Those ice cream flavors sound so so incredible!! Wow I would be in serious trouble if that place was near me!!
That brown butter almond brittle ice cream sounds AMAZING. If I’m going to eat real ice cream, then I want it full of delicious stuff. Also, love the shoes! Too cute!
Definitely trying that recipe! looks too good not to.
Awesome shoes by the way!
Those ice cream flavors sound incredible! Get me some of that please 🙂 I like your shoes too, nice choice!
That ice cream looks incredible! And I’m diggin your kicks, those are sweet 😀
wow! I may have to take a trip to Ohio for some of that Ice Cream! The veggie burger looks great, as well!
