What I Ate Wednesday #16

 

 Welcome to another addition of What I Ate Wednesday.  The holiday had me a little off when it came to what day of the week it was!

Yesterday, I actually missed my breakfast pics, but, it was nothing exciting, after a weekend of bbq food, I had a simple protein shake and 1/2 of a whole wheat English Muffin with a cup of coffee.

Here is a recycled picture of one of my favorite protein shakes. 

Lunch was also pretty simple.  Leftovers. Over the weekend, I made tons of these awesome vegetable skewers with a couple of pieces of Gardein Beefless tips mixed in.  I had enough to make both Andy and I lunch from the leftovers, served on a bed of steamed brown rice.  I prefer them fresh off the grill, but as hot and humid as it was yesterday, I was glad not to have to be in front of the grill.

I made these with par-baked quartered potatoes, yellow and green zucchini, beefless tips, mushrooms, onions, peppers, and a cherry tomato on the end! I made a quick basting marinade out a little bit of olive oil, water, lemon juice, vegan Worcestershire sauce, and some Mrs. Dash steak seasoning.  I cooked them on the grill about 10 minutes, flipped another 10 minutes, until they were cooked through. After being in the refrigerator for two days, I reheated them on the stovetop in a griddle pan. 

After lunch, I had another coffee, did some running around, worked in my office and then prepared an early dinner before Andy had to run to a game.

Dinner was BBQ Chik’n & Slaw Wraps.  I made a quick slaw from a 1/2 bag of slaw mix, 1/2 bag of shredded red cabbage, 1 small red onion thinly sliced, 1 large carrot grated, and slaw dressing.  My dressing was Vegan mayo, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, agave nectar, celery seed, sea salt and pepper.  I let the slaw sit in the fridge for an hour before making my wraps.  I used carb balance whole wheat tortillas as my base.  Then added slaw and then pieces of Gardein Chick’n coated with a sweet and spicy bbq sauce on top.  I rolled them and served with some baked sea salt and vinegar chips.

An hour after dinner I had a decaf coffee and a small piece of a black bean brownie.

I was still hungry at 8pm, and although, I detest eating at night, I caved and had a small bowl of Uncle Sam’s cereal in coconut milk.

So, there you have it, what I ate Tuesday on Wednesday.  I look forward to posting lots of my favorite summer meals whether at home, or on the go.  Only two and a half weeks of school left, yay!  I can’t wait until Mya is home for the summer and the fun can begin. Hopefully I can blog from the campground or by the poolside, where I hope to be spending a great deal of summer.

Do you have any great summer plans?

Have a great Wednesday!
