I had every intention of writing a fabulously witty introduction for What I Ate Wednesday today.
Alas, my brain had other plans. Don’t you hate it when that happens?
Either way, I figured I’m not going to let a silly thing like my mental state stop me from posting, not when I have back to back days to share. Boom.
On the off chance you forgot (surely that’s not the case), last week I shared a random Friday of food with the promise of the very next day to come. Two days for the price of one. It’s a buy one, get one free sale, minus the spending any money part. Hello, it doesn’t get much sexier than that, unless of course you count the time I shared an entire week of eats. Yeah, that was hot and to be totally honest, downright exhausting.
Back to back days though, I can do those no problem.
You’ll find my Friday eats here, and my Saturday eats below.
Happy What I Ate Wednesday. Thank you Arman for hosting today’s shenanigans and Jenn for creating the party.
First Breakfast: water, warm lemon water, two cups of coffee with a dash of milk and a dollop of sugar.
Second Breakfast: a post run smoothie with frozen pineapple, blueberries, a banana, spinach, flax powder and a scoop or three of full fat plain Greek yogurt.
Third Breakfast: I split a five egg omelet with the Hubby, which was packed with artichokes, kalamata olives, onions, tomatoes and feta cheese. On the side, I had fingerling potatoes and more spinach, this time lightly dressed.
Snackage: I’ve been recipe testing so fistfuls, er I mean dainty handfuls, of chocolate granola and candied walnuts may have found their way into my mouth.
Dinner: was outstanding. I paired fresh Spicy Black Bean and Cheddar ravioli from Ohio City Pasta (The Best!) with a light sauce of raw tomatoes, onions, cilantro and green onions with some plain Greek yogurt subbing in for sour cream. It was phenomenal, and I ate this plate times two, so basically the one in the front and the one in the back.
There you have it, a day of edibles. If you want to see my meals for the day directly before all this, head here. I’ll let you in on a secret: it was another good one.
Happy What I Ate Wednesday.
haha, I love that you have like three breakfasts! I am the same way! Breakfasts foods also just so good! That granola sounds and looks really good!

Three breakfasts should be standard daily fare. 🙂

Oh yay! I love Ohio City Pasta and may have to try the black bean ravioli. I’ve never had that kind before and love how you made it less Italian style with the cilantro and yogurt sauce!And that granola. Nomnom..
Melissa recently posted…WIAW #28: Camping Eats
Yeah, I was going for a more Mexican vibe with those raviolis. They were amazing. You gotta grab some.
Meghan recently posted…WIAW: The Double Day Edition
Black bean and cheddar ravioli? I’ve never had anything like that but I love the idea! I need to track some down 🙂
Those raviolis are worth hunting down.
Meghan recently posted…WIAW: The Double Day Edition
I am always more hungry in the morning, so three breakfast sounds pretty real. I’ve never had fingerling potatoes, but I love pretty much all potatoes, so I need find those ASAP.
Kate recently posted…All my kitchen (WIAW)
Fingerlings are the best. They’re soft and buttery on the inside.
Meghan recently posted…WIAW: The Double Day Edition
I never eat tiny fistfuls of anything, much less granola. That stuff is like crack! I can’t wait to hear about that recipe! Awesome eat Some!
Heather@hungryforbalance recently posted…WIAW: Taste the Rainbow
Stay tuned. The recipe should be coming soon, in the next couple of weeks.
Meghan recently posted…WIAW: The Double Day Edition
Mmm. That granola looks divine. I hope you share it with us soon!
Jessica @ Balance and Thyme recently posted…Surprises and What I WILL EAT Wednesday!
I will share it soon, in the next couple weeks for sure.

I am a major fan of multiple breakfasts. While I was hiking in the Lake District this weekend, my friend and I gorged on full English breakfasts at our B&B and also carried many, many snacks with us to basically breakfast through til lunch.
Alyssa @ renaissancerunnergirl recently posted…Pond Hopping Part 2: Hiking and Eating in the English Lake District
Breakfasting through until lunch needs to be a thing.
Meghan recently posted…WIAW: The Double Day Edition
I’ll never turn away from a Double D edition! All your foods are inspiring yet again. I’ve been eating more veggies lately but I find I have trouble digesting raw ones. Stomach cramps for DAYS.

Saute those bitches. 🙂

Ohhh my, that pasta. I have been eating so many carbs lately. My running hasn’t been balancing it out though. Living wild and free bahaha. I’m having first breakfast right now of my coffee and water, and second breakfast is going to be like 6 bananas. I’m not even kidding. I cannot stop with the bananas.
Brittany recently posted…Portland – The Land of Good Coffee and Cat Pillows
We will actually be visiting this pasta place when you’re here and they have VEGAN raviolis too.
Also I will stock up on bananas.
Meghan recently posted…WIAW: The Double Day Edition
Multiple breakfasts is the only way one should live their life ;). Your ravioli looked phenomenal! I too struggle with coming up with hilarious witty intros and choose to forgo them in order to not embarrass myself!
Niki @Life With Niki recently posted…WIAW | A Day Of Perfect Eats and Zac Efron
Normally intros are my bread and butter. Not today though. I figure it’s for the best. This way the food gets to be the star of the show.
Meghan recently posted…WIAW: The Double Day Edition
I know you are doing this on purpose to secretly command me to take the flight over to Cleveland. I mean, that food. EPIC. Especially the omelet. I could never share this – yet you are in love with the hubby, so I get it.
Lucie@FitSwissChick recently posted…Live NOW – not then.
I would share my omelet with you too. Come to Cleveland.
Meghan recently posted…WIAW: The Double Day Edition
Insert hand clap for that ravioli photo- er YUM! Can’t wait for that granola recipe- granola + chocolate = you know it’s gonna be good!!
Khushboo recently posted…Natural beauty products
Secret: there’s also lots of coconut in the granola recipe too. 🙂
Meghan recently posted…WIAW: The Double Day Edition
Dainty handfuls? That’s my preferred way of eating chocolate chips. And granola. And … everything. No mindless munching, right?
On a random note I want a) your coffee mug [even though I’d use it for tea] and b) those ravioli. I hope your Wednesday’s going well and work not drowning you!
Miss Polkadot recently posted…Currently … August 2015
The coffee mug is polish pottery. I love that stuff.
Meghan recently posted…WIAW: The Double Day Edition
Yum yumm gimme sum!!!! I need that ravioli right now. Seriously. All food is based on texture to me right now and for the unforseeable future, so my gaze goes straight to those soft pillows of flavor. I need!!! I love all your posts, I never tire of them. You can write about how many times Oscar licked his left paw and I’d be enthralled. Yup. I’m your groupie.
Danielle recently posted…so, i run
You’re the best, and I’d happily share all my raviolis with you. You would have loved these too because they had a saucy jalapeno kick inside.
Meghan recently posted…WIAW: The Double Day Edition
Your dinner sounds absolutely incredible – I really want to try that pasta!
Jamie recently posted…Say What #MIMM
Thanks. The pasta was fantastic.
Meghan recently posted…WIAW: The Double Day Edition
I want more granola! Bring some for Christmas? 😉
Laura @ Sprint 2 the Table recently posted…Peanut Butter Banana Pancakes [Gluten-Free Recipe]
You come and get it and I’ll make you all the granola you want. Multiple flavors too.
Meghan recently posted…WIAW: The Double Day Edition
Black Bean & Cheddar ravioli sound out of this world amazing! I just got a pasta machine for my birthday and am excited to try out some new recipes 🙂 Thanks for sharing WIAW, I love reading your posts!
Frugal Foodie Frank recently posted…What I Ate Wednesday- August 19th
A pasta machine! That’s awesome. I can’t wait to see what incredible creations you make.
Meghan recently posted…WIAW: The Double Day Edition
Nomnomnom! I say make every meal breakfast – that would make me very happy! Also 5 egg omelettes are where it’s at! I totally would not share…
Hello candied walnuts…. There are honey covered macadamia nuts in my local store… Don’t know how much longer I can go without buying them…!
Jen @ Chase the Red Grape recently posted…What I ate Wednesday! Airplane Edition!
Honey covered macadamia nuts! You absolutely need to get some of these and then let me know how fantastic they are.
3 breakfasts… now there’s a woman after my own heart. Can we make that a thing come September as well? Because I’d gladly eat breakfast (and Chipotle) for every meal of the day. Toss a little chocolate granola in there too, and I’d be in heaven.
Amanda @ .running with spoons. recently posted…. thinking out loud #144 .
We can have four breakfasts a day! Be wild and crazy and throw all caution to the wind.
