Another dose of weekly eats is coming your way! Ready or not, here it is!
Snack Time!
Top Left: Plain greek yogurt with dark chocolate CocoaVia and blueberry flax granola. I received a few flavors of CocoaVia in my last BuluBox. This was the only flavor I’ve tried so far and it was delicious! I just mixed a packet into my yogurt, but you can also mix it into smoothies, water, oatmeal, anything really. CocoaVia is supposed to help with circulation (something I desperately need) by keeping your arteries flexible.
Bottom Left: Blueberry greek yogurt with blueberry flax granola. – If you didn’t notice, I’ve been really getting into greek yogurt lately. I can’t have it every day because of my super lactose sensitivity, but every few days with two Lactaid supplements and I’m usually ok. I love how rich in protein it is!
Top Right: Lemon Zest Luna Bar. I haven’t had a Luna Bar in a while. They’re still amazing.
Middle Right: Pretzel Crisps. We had a health fair at work and one of the tables was handing out these babies. This little bag was only 50 calories. 50 calories of delicious!
Bottom Right: Crunchy Peanut Butter Builder’s Bar. I’d never had this flavor. Yummmm.
Lunch Time
Left: I was out of the office shooting a commercial on Friday and the salad bar was AMAZING! I loaded up on spinach, quinoa, roasted beets and tofu, chickpeas, and salmon.
Middle: I don’t have sandwiches often, so I decided to whip up a yummy vegetarian panini on Saturday afternoon: Whole wheat bread, spinach, mushrooms, “chik’n”, and mexican blend cheese.
Right: After a long memorial day hike, my family and I stopped at a deli. I got pretty much every veggie they had in a wrap: lettuce, tomato, artichoke hearts, sweet peppers, hot peppers, cucumber, and olives.
Dinner Time
Top Left: Roasted cod (seasoned and very lightly breaded) with roasted brussels in lemon vinaigrette from this post.
Top Right: Bombay Potatoes. These were on sale at the grocery so I decided to try them. They were pretty good, and super easy to make. You just pop it in the microwave for 90 seconds and done!
Bottom Left: I didn’t have much in my apartment the other night, so I ventured into my freezer and the depths of my pantry and was able to whip up this stir fry. I have to say, it was pretty delish! Brown rice, cashews, chickpeas, corn, peas, and some pineapple chili sauce.
Bottom Right: Grilled Portobello mushrooms, grilled peppers, and grilled avocado for our Memorial Day BBQ. Mmmmm.
Time for Treats
Left: My pre-run Memorial Day Breakfast: Apple Cinnamon greek yogurt with blueberries, toast, and PB2.
Middle: After my Wednesday night yoga class, the girls from Launch and Well Fed treated us to these juices. The turmeric gave the juice a bit of a spicy kick. Some people weren’t into it, but I thought it was pretty good. It’s definitely not your typical sweet juice, though.
Right: I made Chocolate Covered Katie’s Healthy Cookie Dough Dip for Memorial Day dessert. My sister’s boyfriend devoured half the batch!

Did you try anything new this week? What did you have for Memorial Day?
I was referred by Run Your Happy Pace. After briefly reviewing your FB page, I am very interested in learning and being motivated by you. 🙂 Bottled orange flavor NuNaturals sounds good
Thanks for stopping by! I hope I can help teach you new things and keep you motivated. That’s so nice to hear :).
I use Vanilla now & LOVE it.
