WIAW

You know you’re lazy when you have a beautiful DSLR camera but you continue to take crappy pictures with your iPhone because you forget to bring your camera downstairs.

Umm, yeah. That’s been me for the past month or so. I know I get SUCH better pictures and enjoy taking pictures more with my DSLR so why do I always do this?

Anyway, yesterday I had my camera most of the day with me so I actually got some decent shots!

My morning started with an iced coffee<3 and a powercake.

It was dark and the powercake looked really ugly, so I’ll spare you a picture.

I made the chocolate one though and it turned out DELICIOUS. Make one now.

After hittin’ the gym for some chest, abs, and cardio, I came home and refueled.

The last of my big container of chobani needed to be eaten so I threw some banana, strawberries, and a sprinkle of love grown in there.

Right before class I made myself a salad.

Spinach, brussel sprouts, a pickle, sweet potato, a bit of beans, nutritional yeast, turkey burger.

Now a picture all mixed together..

There’s the green!

I knew I had to bring a snack for in between my classes so I brought pumpkin protein bars.

I love these things. So easy to take around with me too, but they do get kind of messy.

Dinner was grilled chicken, spinach, and roasted green beans. I swear roasting veggies makes them that much better.

And my last meal before bed was the usual..

A serving of whipped cottage cheese and a tablespoon of peanut, almond, cashew butter that generously spread all over the cottage cheese to make it look like a cup of nut butter. I swear it was only a tablespoon Smile

Got in a good amount of veggies I’d say!

 

Best thing you ate?

Favorite type of nut butter?

What is your favorite on-the-go snack?

  2. I agree, roasting veggies makes them taste so much better! And… i agree with the camera thing. I have a nice camera but I always end up taking most of my pictures with my iphone. It is just so much more convenient and easy. I need to get better at using my camera.

  5. I love that nut butter!! Gotta love Target.. especially the prices! 5.99 is muuuch better than 12.99 for almond butter! For the whipped cottage cheese, is it just mixed up cottage cheese or do you add anything to it? Looks good though!!

  8. love your eats! um and that ice coffee looks like heaven! how do you make yours? everytime i try my coffee ends up so watery:(
    ps your back picture a few posts ago is amazing! so toned it looks awesome!<3

    • I just make my coffee, fill my cup completely up with ice, and pour the hot coffee over it! You could always make yours the night before and then it will be cool and pour over the ice cubes without melting them :) Thanks girl <3

  9. my favorite type of nut butter is barney butter, hands down! i love both the crunchy and creamy kind-it’s addicting.

  11. I’ve only ever had cashew butter and almond butter. I wasn’t a huge fan of either :\ I think I need to try more, though!

  12. I love when a container like the greek yogurt is at the end.. perfect for eating from and no dishes to clean up, WIN! Currently my favorite nut butter is the roasted flax seed one from TJs… holy crap that stuff is addicting :)

  13. Lisa says:

    I swear roasted green beans are so addictive! They taste like little green fries! I love them. That nut butter mix sounds awesome! All those nuts are the best, so combined must be bomb. I have yet to try a powercake, I must this weekend! Have a great day!!

    YUM everything looks so good! So many greens.. loving it! And I’ve been dying to try powercakes! I have a feeling that once I do I’ll become weirdly addicted to them though haha

  20. haha we use our iphones more than our DSLR camera lately ;) it is more convenient

    and favorite nut butter well not sure if many would consider a nut butter, but love tahini!!!

  21. I LOVE LOVE LOVE Jamie Eason’s pumpkin bars! I usually bake two batches at a time and freeze one of them. They’re so easy to pop in the microwave and reheat on the go.

    And you’re not the only one who forgets their camera upstairs and is too lazy to go get it. *Raising hand*. Yep, sometimes I’ll come home from the gym and just not have it in me to go ALL the way up there. Thank God for iPhones. Haha. :-p

    Favorite nut butter: Whole Foods 365 brand crunchy or creamy peanut butter (I always have both on hand) all the way!

    I’ve been seeing this whipped cottage cheese on your blog for a while now, but haven’t tried it yet! Do you just whip it on its own with a fork? Or do you add anything else to it?
    Asuma recently posted..Happy PB&J Day!!My Profile

  23. At least the iPhone takes nice pictures! I usually end up taking pictures with my very very low quality EnV camera. Beautiful pics!
    And the whipped cottage cheese looks awesome. How do you make that!?
    Katie @ Nutrition in a Peanut Shell recently posted..What I ate- appliciousMy Profile

    • Take some cottage cheese (however much you want), almond milk (depending on how runny your cottage cheese is, I usually get the 1% so it isn’t runny at all and add 1/4 c. almond milk) and some liquid stevia.. whip it in a blender and it is deeeelish!!!

  24. Bahaha. I have a digital SLR too and take all my WIAW photos with my iphone! Terrible…
