What I Ate Wednesday

This second edition of What I Ate Wednesday is pretty darn boring...but also pretty typical for what we eat on a normal running around kind of weekday.


1. Nothing :: I worked out first thing in morning on an empty stomach and I don't love doing that.  (Rob had to go to work early and I hit snooze a few too many times so I left myself no time to eat.)  With that said, a 20 minute PiYo video is totally do-able on an empty stomach.
2. Shakeology :: Chocolate, of course.  I am seriously obsessed.
3. Greek Yogurt :: Quick snack while doing some planning/work on the computer
4. PB and Banana Sandwich :: Which I ate in the car on the way to the grocery store and forgot to take a picture of! Oops!
5. Publix Samples :: Publix has the best samples.  Rob makes fun of me because when I hear them say over the intercom that the sample meal is ready, I drop everything and run!
6. Cheeseburger Bites and Carrot Apple Slaw :: These cheeseburger bites are so stinkin' good! Dinner recipes found here
7. Wine and Cheese :: I went to a friend's Agnes and Dora party last night and had some wine while trying on leggings! haha Pretty perfect combo if you ask me ;)

What I Ate Wednesday: Wild Roots Cafe & Beach Pops

I am always curious what other people eat so I love checking out Peas and Crayons What I Ate Wednesday linkup.  Here is a peek into what we are eating!

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!).
