What I Ate Wednesday

I’m back into a full-blown flying schedule so most of what I ate today came on the plane with me. I will definitely be posting more about my 30 Day Mindful Eating Challenge but for now, some eats:

This morning I had a big mason jar full of hot water with limes and stevia. The heat and sweetness were really wonderful, I usually drink this sort of beverage cold.

Ingredients for Limeonade.

Early afternoon I had 24 ounces of cucumber/romaine/broccoli stem/lime juice with stevia. Later on I tried a version of Natalia Rose’s famous Pumpkin Pie in a Bowl. I replaced the avocado with a raw egg, just for experimentations sake. It was…a little slimy. Very satisfying though, and not too heavy. I don’t know that I’ll do it again though.

Hydrating goodness.

Pre-dinner I had a box of amazing little cherry tomatoes and then dug into a gorgeous salad: baby romaine, carrot pulp (from juicing), raw peas, green onions, fresh garlic, 3 free-range eggs (all delicious and soft in the middle which creates a nice dressing), hot curry, nutritional yeast, sea salt, and stevia. Serious yums.

Dinner munchies

For dessert I melted an ounce and a half of baking chocolate (100% cacao) and mixed in a little raw honey and stevia, whipping it into a mousse. I will definitely make this one again.

Honey sweetened chocolate

Curry and nutritional yeast was the most interesting flavor combo I’ve come across in awhile. Have you eaten anything interesting lately?

  1. I love limes instead of lemons! I usually add a little vanilla (or vanilla stevia) to mine – makes it taste kinda creamy.
    My eats are very uncreative at the moment, just got home from some time away and am craving simple unadulterated foods – like plain avocados, plain banana etc. Nothing particularly interesting, but I think you picked up on my love of simplicity previously 😉
    I love the name of the tomatoes you enjoyed – sugar plum – & your mousse looks heavenly! I’ll look forward to reading more about your mindful eating.

  2. I MUST try curry and nutritional yeast! WHAT A GOOD IDEA BABE!!!!!!!

    Hahaha I love how you had those cherry tomatoes. Honestly, I look like a freak at the grocery store because I buy like 4 containers at a time because I eat the whole thing in one sitting 😉 It’s like “don’t worry guys – these things will only last a day or two ;)!!!”

      I TOTALLY buy 4 containers at a time! My cart also usually includes like 12 bags of carrots, 6 packages of cucumbers, and lettuce out the wazoo for juicing. I’ve gotten used to the surprised looks from the grocery clerks 😉

    I love limes in my water as a nice change to lemons. I also love them in my veggie juice too! So chocolate and honey what could be better. About how much honey did you use? I am so making that this weekend.

      I used about an ounce and a half of the chocolate and a tablespoon of honey. I also used a little stevia to sweeten while keeping the sugar low 🙂

    I love your ideas. I am curious about what the 30 days of mindful eating is ??I think I have to remember when I am home and do not feel very “mindful” to come on this computer and visit your blog 🙂 This will be a big help to me !! Thank-you Rande !!
