WIAW – My Last Day Off

28 Nov

Hi everyone! How is your week going? I’ve been unusually tired the past couple of days; I think it’s the whole “getting back into the swing of things” after a few days off of work.

For this week’s What I Ate Wednesday (thanks, Jen, for hosting!), I photographed my meals on Monday, which was my last day of Thanksgiving break.


BreakfastThomas’ cranberry bagel topped with a wedge of Laughing Cow cinnamon cream cheese, coffee

I got up early to go to the 6:00AM spin class offered at my gym. After my workout, I headed directly to the grocery store, where I finally spotted the cranberry bagels… delicious!

LunchPeanut butter and jelly, Popcorners, apple cinnamon Chobani, 1/2 a bottle of Honest Tea

Two of these items were BJ’s purchases from the weekend… the Popcorners and the Honest Tea. Ok… Popcorners… I have a serious addiction friends! Chris and I buy the jumbo bag at BJ’s, and I’m embarrassed to admit that it’s almost halfway gone already, and I’m pretty sure that’s thanks to me! They are just too good to resist.

SnackSlice of cheddar cheese

Since I was home, I helped Chris out by making his lunch and grabbed a piece of cheese in the process.

DinnerBlack bean enchiladas (topped with plain Greek yogurt and avocado), 1/2 bottle of Honest Tea

Monday’s challenge for Elf for Health was to go meat-free, so I made my go-to vegetarian dinner. The addition of avocado took these over the top!

DessertReeses Christmas tree

Is any commentary really necessary here?

All in all, a day of delicious eats!

My plans for the rest of the evening include some graduate work and an early bedtime to help kick this sleepiness I’ve been experiencing. I’m actually thinking of doing my grad work in bed, so all I have to do is close the laptop and I can go right to sleep!

Have you ever tried Popcorners? Please tell me I’m not the only one who is totally addicted to these things?!

      Glad I’m not the only one with a Popcorners obsession!

    I’ve never had Popcorners, but I’ve had Chip-Ins, which look like the same thing. They are DELICIOUS and my new go-to chip.

      They are! I think it’s because they seem to have a lot more peanut butter!

    I’ve never heard of Popcorners, is it like a healthier chip?

    Now you’re making me want a Reese’s christmas tree!!

      They are a bit healthier than regular chips, just not if you’re eating them in the quantity that I am! haha Whoops!

    Such great meals! The cinnamon cream cheese just sounds delicious! I don’t think I’d be able to keep those little triangles around our home for to long Ha Ha.

      My husband and I (mostly me!) plowed through a bag in one week… a BIG bag!

    I love those Laughing Cow Cream Cheese wedges. What a perfect little serving of cream cheese – and I feel like, despite their size, they go a long way. I love adding them to my waffles, pancakes or toast in the morning :)

    I’ve never heard of those little Popcorners before! This might be obvoius, but what are they? Like an air-popped corn tortilla chip?

      Sort of! They’re kind of like what popcorn would be if it were a chip… if that makes any sense!

    My sister JUST introduced these to me, and they are incredible! Late July just started to put out tortilla chips that are amazing too!
