Serious yums

categories: breakfast, dessert, dinner, fruit, lunch, nut butter, rice, snack, vegetarian, yogurt

I don’t think I mentioned this earlier, but Bobby is away this weekend on a skiing trip in Tahoe.  I could have gone, but I don’t usually choose to go to cold places!  So I stayed here.  When I’m alone, I tend to revert to eating my favorites – lots of fruit, yogurt, peanut butter, and veggies.  That is my ideal diet.  Here are some yums (but by no meals all of them) from this weekend…

A Breakfast…

9-strawberry-breakfast

  • rice, yogurt, Trader Joe’s high fiber cereal, peanut butter

Lunches and snacks…

10-pear-snack

  • pumpkin fries with maple syrup AND organic ketchup (I promise it’s good – didn’t you ever dip breakfast sausages in ketchup and syrup?  It’s the same concept)
  • pear with yogurt, cereal, and peanut butter

First dinner…

11-pumpkin-fries-broc-peach-dinner

  • pumpkin fries with organic ketchup and maple syrup (again, yummy!)
  • sliced peach (these weren’t that good… starchy.  I guess that’s what I get for buying the first peaches of the season.)
  • roasted broccoli with garlic & chili powder

And desserts (many varying desserts – my favorite meal)…

12-strawberry-orange-dessert

  • orange, strawberries, yogurt, coconut, maple syrup

I can’t wait until my sweetie is back, but I certainly do enjoy this way of eating!  It’s good that Bobby keeps me in line and makes me eat grains though.  I don’t really crave them and would probably just go without if it weren’t for him.  Happy Sunday!  I’m off to the farmers’ market…  What are you plans?

    Mmm. Ketchup AND syrup? Tasty! I kind of like being alone like that sometimes- its nice to eat whatever you want and all. Have fun at the farmers market! Am hoping to catch up on some work today. In a relaxing sort of way, of course:)

    I could seriously live on sweet potatoes, broccoli, and almond butter! I think the ketchup/maple syrup combo sounds brilliant!

    now when I’m ‘lazy’, I always resort to yogurt and granola for dinner and of course round it out with some veggies and a piece of fruit. :)It feels great to eat without influences, right?

    Haha – add hummus and that’s my preferred diet as well!

    Hope you found a lot of goodies at the farmers market!

    YUM! Girl, we need to get together and do some eating WITHOUT the guys! I always skip on grains too because produce is so much better! I’m trying to get all my grains in when I wake up by having huge bowls of cereal. 😉
