WIAW: Weekend Edition

I'm the worst.... I haven't blogged in a full week!! That makes me sad...but to make up for it, I have some exciting new eats for this week's What I Ate Wednesday :)

As always, thanks to Jenn over at Peas and Crayons for hosting the party!

Last week I made an Italian Grilled Cheese of sorts using Nature's Pride Sweet Crunch Bread, Parmesan cheese, low fat mozzarella cheese, fried organic egg, pepper, and garlic salt all melted together in one crunchy cheesey sandwich and dipped in organic mushroom marinara sauce.

Typical. Yep, another morning of Overnight Oats. Hey what can I say? I am a creature of habit. Instead of using vanilla greek yogurt, however, I have begun using plain greek yogurt and adding vanilla, cinnamon, and jam!

 Big, fresh, organic strawberries.

Spring mix with chopped tomatoes, shredded part-skim mozzarella, garlic lover's hummus, roasted red pepper hummus, and Gazebo low fat Greek dressing.

 Carrot chips!! Perfect to dip into my hummus topped salad :)

Dinner at Pizzeria Uno's with my mom and brother. I had a suprisingly healthy dinner for a pizza place that has infamously unhealthy deep dish pizza! Igot the Roasted Vegetables & Goat Cheese Wrap-A whole wheat and flaxseed tortilla filled with roasted vegetables, caramelized onions, tomato, goat cheese, lettuce and balsamic vinaigrette... with the Farro Salad- A whole-grain wheat with diced tomatoes, cucumbers and balsamic vinaigrette. Fantastically healthy for you. See even Uno's says it's healthy :) It was really yummy.

 Another shocker.... Iced coffee!

A new breakfast favorite of mine.. toasted Nature Pride's Sweet Crunch Bread, natural strawberry jam, and vanilla greek yogurt. Weird I know, but soooo good. I like a sweet breakfast. Need that sugar boost in the morning.

 

Homemade Veggie Lasagna on Friday night with the fam and leftovers for lunch on Tuesday. I'm not a huge lasagna fan, but I really enjoyed this.

Saturday night I went out to dinner with the family at Duffer's Pub. SUCH A COOL PLACE. Above is a picture from their website. I felt like we were beach side, and for a pub, it was really great and fresh food!

Enjoyed a refreshing Blue Moon (favorite beer by the way).

 

We shared a few appetizers before our dinners including...Roasted Pepper Hummus- chick peas ground with roasted peppers then finished with olive oil and feta cheese served with toasted pita wedges and assorted vegetables. Literally the BEST hummus I have EVER had! Literally. so. good. Those Sweet Potato Chips were pretty darn delicious too... especially when dipped in the hummus :)

Veggie Panini- Grilled portabella topped with roasted peppers, red onions, provolone and marinara sauce served on toasted ciabatta bread.

Annie's Bunny Graham Friends because they're delicious and because I am eating them as I type this post. An oldie but goodie.

Where do you like to go out to eat to get a healthy meal?

Do you ever feel like food tastes better when someone else makes it?
How do you mix it up your typical breakfast routine?

Hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday!
