What I Ate Wednesday- Out & About
I haven’t spent more than 5 minutes in the kitchen over the last few days. After the weekend in DC, Alex’s sister and her boyfriend came to Richmond, and we’ve been out and about in the evenings. I’m not complaining, and I’ve actually been able to make some fairly healthy choices, making me feel just fine about it. After the weekend, my body was craving fruits and veggies, so it’s been easy to find ways to satisfy those cravings!
So here’s a little What I Ate Wednesday – Out & About recap.
For breakfast, I’ve still been craving yogurt. I filled a bowl with vanilla Greek yogurt, blueberries, and some Special K protein cereal. The cereal added a nice crunch and a bonus kick of protein. This bowl kept me pretty full until lunch time.
For lunch, I was supposed to go out with my brother and his wife, but my brother wasn’t feeling well so we rescheduled. Since I already had my heart set on Which Wich, Kate joined me and I satisfied my sandwich craving.
If you have Which Wich in your area, I highly recommend it! It’s like a much more delicious version of Subway. They have tons of great vegetarian options, and it’s pretty quick to get in and out. I ordered a sandwich and added lots of veggies (and feta of course) and Kate and I shared some Sun Chips. It completely hit the spot, and I wasn’t hungry again until dinner! Normally I need an afternoon snack, but this lunch really kept me full and happy. I guess that’s what happens when you listen to your cravings.
When dinner rolled around, I went the Tobacco Company with Alex, Nicole and David. We ordered a bunch of appetizers and I had lots of hummus + pita and some fried yellow tomatoes.
It was enjoyed with a few drinks, and lots of laughter. The best kind of dinner, of course. Then naturally, we had to follow dinner with a little Sweet Frog. Obviously. (If you come visit Richmond, fro-yo is necessary.)
I’m looking forward to getting back into cooking, but I definitely enjoyed all of these meals out!

“I guess thatโs what happens when you listen to your cravings.” Ahh, this made me smile SO big!! It really is amazing how much differently a meal can sit with you if it is something you were truly craving versus something you thought you “should” eat! And I flippin’ LOVE Which Wich! Have you ever had their veggie burger or the avocado and hummus? Mmm, SO good! When the one in my town opened up last year, I was in there like every week, but geez, I just realized I haven’t been in MONTHS! I usually eat in most of the time since I live alone…doesn’t really make sense to me to dine out when it’s just me. And if I’m with the man-friend, we usually go to Nashville since there’s more to do than in my little city.
PS, now I’m craving fried green tomatoes! Just thought you should know! ๐
Having a good time with friends is always a wonderful thing — I’m so glad you had the chance to have some fun out and about! ๐
Great to hear you had a fun time with Alex, his sister and her boyfriend!
Fried green tomatoes seem to be a classic but not around here so I never had them before. I do only remember my grandma once preparing jam from green tomatoes :).
Cooking is something I enjoy a lot though I’d also like to get more adventurous about eating out, too.
I like both, but we tend to eat out a lot. But reading all the WIAW posts have inspired me to started cooking more at home. Plus, I would like to drop a few pounds, which is easier to do if you aren’t eating out all the time.
Fried yellow tomatoes?!!!?? Sounds amazing!
Also, I’ve never heard of a Which Wich before. Is it a chain? Hmmm, I might have to check it out next time I’m in Richmond. I love Subway, so an even more delicious version of Subway sounds perfect!
A Which Which opened in the Madison area and I’ve been meaning to try it.
I like to prepare my meals and now as summer/high produce season kicks in, I’m kind of lazy with lots and lots of salads!
