Meatless WIAW Trois

There is only three days left until I can eat meat again, and that means that this will probably be my last meatless WIAW. Even though I was successful in giving up meat for Lent, I’m not sure its something I want to continue, but more about that later. Let’s get to the eats!

First up are Oatmeal Protein Pancakes topped with melted berries and bananas. These take literally two minutes to make in the blender and keep me full for hours. I make the melted berried by microwaving some cut up berries. It makes a great fresh fruity topping without the sugars of syrups.

A midmorning snack that I’ve been enjoying lately is the Designer Whey pre-mixed Protein Shakes. The Vanilla tastes just like a milkshake, and not a healthified milkshake either!

Another thing I can’t get enough of lately are dried fruits. These are apricots from the Polish deli near my job, but my absolute fav are dried white peaches from Trader Joe’s. I’ve been telling myself that I will make them myself in the dehydrator, but I haven’t gotten around to it…yet!

This is my fav salad from a local diner, the Thai Chicken Deluxe, which I ordered chicken-less. Avocado makes everything better.

I had a brave moment and decided to try something new from the Sushi restaurant we order from at work. This was called a Chirashi Lunch. It was pretty good, but I’m not sure what the white thing was which means I didn’t eat it. I think I’ll be sticking to my go-to rolls and sashimi from now on.

This is the Portabella wrap I got on my lunch date with my little man. Grilled Portabella mushrooms, spinach, roasted peppers and mozzarella cheese on a whole wheat wrap.

This is probably the best thing I’ve eaten lately – crab cakes made by Tommy! I had bought a can of crab meat at Trader Joe’s but wasn’t too sure of what I’d make with it. Tommy followed the recipe on the can and made some of the best crab cakes I’ve had, and it was super simple!

This pizza is my ultimate guilty pleasure – the Salad Slice. It is basically a cheese-less pizza topped with a lettuce, tomato, olives and red onions. It’s super simple, but the flavors go together so well and I literally crave it every time I walk past the pizzeria.

And last but not least is my go to lunch, dinner, midnight snack. A Dr. Praeger’s California veggie burger on toast, topped with cheese and sprouts and a side of veggies with chipotle hummus. I could eat this forever and a day and never get sick of it.

What’s the best thing you’ve eaten this week?
