I am not a morning person at all. Rob knows not to talk to me until I start the conversation. I am also not a big eater first thing when I wake up. My morning routine is grabbing a greek yogurt from the fridge and bringing it back to bed to eat while I catch up on my instagram and bloglovin feeds.
Rob and I did a quick workout. We are currently hooked on PiYo, which is a fast paced mix of yoga and pilates. Any other PiYo fans? Then I had chocolate Shakeology with almond milk and peanut butter. Shakes always taste better in Hokie tumblers ;)
Rob wasn't scheduled to fly so we headed to the beach to relax. I was excited to try Wild Roots Cafe for lunch as I heard great things about their healthy, fresh food options. It did not disappoint! I got the Monte Carlo pizzetta with bacon, roast beef, blue cheese, caramelized onions, greens and drizzled with vinaigrette on a gluten free tortilla.
Wild Roots' sister store, Beach Pops is connected next door and features smoothies, soft serve, and delicious fresh fruit popsicles. I was almost set on a popsicle when I realized that they have soft serve made out of frozen bananas!!! We make banana ice cream at home all the time and I had to try their version. We split the tropical berry (banana base with pineapple and mixed berries) and it was fabulous!!
For dinner we made our favorite lazy meal--taco salads. This is a staple at our house because it is easy, healthy, and tasty. I topped mine with onion, peach mango salsa, cheese, and greek yogurt.
As a late night snack, I ate a bowl of cherries (I can't get enough of these!) and some dark chocolate chips (eaten too fast to be photographed!).
I love cherry season too.
ReplyDeletetaco salads are soooooo good! we make them often and now i'm craving cherries!!
ReplyDeleteWow you eat so much better than I do. And those cherries look amazing! You have me craving them now
ReplyDeleteWhoever thought to turn a taco into a salad is a pure genius! It really does make the BEST dinner :)
ReplyDeleteYour taco salad looks amazing! For some reason my bf hates making taco type meals at home - you can bet I make them frequently when he's away for work!
ReplyDeleteOh man that taco salad looks so good
ReplyDeleteI told Mac we should probably invest in some glasses that aren't Tech tumblers and DT glasses. He did not agree, haha.
