Good morning!
I called this week’s WIAW “Summer Stylin'” because so much of what I’m eating these days are all of my summer favorites- fresh fruit and veggies, lots of grilled things, and too much ice cream
[Thank you Jenn for hosting WIAW!]
Oatmeal and oat bran, banana slices, strawberry slices, blueberries, plum slices. [Peanut butter and strawberry jelly added after photos].
Lunch
Today’s lunch was so colorful and tasty! When I make lunch, I usually open the fridge and just dump random things into a plastic container. Hey, it does the trick!Kale salad (with olive oil, lemon juice, salt & pepper), with butternut squash, cucumber, tomato, plum
The rest of the gang: Trader Joe’s Vegetarian Refried Beans, nectarine, banana, half peanut butter and banana sandwich, Nature Valley Bar
Snacks
My favorite snacks these days have been fresh fruit, granola bars and hard-boiled eggs.And yogurt! It was especially hot yesterday- like 92 degrees HOT- so instead of putting my lunch in the fridge, I put the whole thing in the freezer. (Maybe I was trying to live vicariously through my lunch??) Anyway, my Coconut-Vanilla Oikos yogurt FROZE and it was the best thing to ever happen to my yogurt. It was sooo much creamier than non-frozen yogurt. I will definitely be freezing yogurt every day…
As for me, since I can’t actually get into the freezer, I’m doing my best to stay cool during this heat wave!
Dinner
Who knows what dinner will be, but last night it was pasta with a cold tomato sauce (fresh tomatoes, garlic, basil, olive oil) and a green salad.
Dessert
ICE CREAM! I’ve become an ice cream addict, although I don’t have any photos to prove it.

Wow, I think your yogurt may be the prettiest breakfast I’ve ever seen! Also looks quite tasty!
Thank you! It is delicious! Never gets old
I’m also an ice cream addict… even though I’m a bit lactose intolerant. I’ll make large sacrifices for my ice cream and pizza
I’m lactose intolerant too! Ice cream is a necessary sacrifice haha my stomach understands
Your oatmeal presentation looks so pretty! I also love mixing oatmeal and oatbran – makes things nice and voluminous and creamy.
Exactly! Oat bran on it’s own is a bit pasty, but mixed with oatmeal, it’s perfect!
