Hello Friends!
WIAW (What. I. Ate. Wednesday.) is something I love to participate in with Jen at Peas and Crayons. Bloggers share what they eat (usually in picture form) in one single day. There is no judgement or criticism..only true reality checks with the food we consume on a daily basis.
Every week she has a link-up and I always meet new friends and get new recipes!!
This week I have a new recipe for you guys on WIAW. Can you say *bonus*??
Behold Crispy Hot Semi-Healthy Quesadillas
But first let’s start chatting about my other eats.
Today’s eats are brought to you by the day Monday. (Kudos for those of you who got the Sesame Street reference 😉 )
Breakfast: {6am}: Peanutbutter, jelly, chewy vitamins and some diet dew to keep me awake at work plus my morning bottle of water (I like to make sure I have at least one bottle of water per caffeinated item such as coffee or diet dew)
Mid-morning snackaroo {10:15 am}: I am SUPER hungry after my job work-out of lifting and throwing around heavy items so I snagged a blueberry muffin and down another bottle of water (nothing healthy about that eat…just kept me from eating off my arm..next time I will be more prepared)
We are now back to
Lunch {1:30pm}: Delicious Crispy Hot Semi-Healthy Quesadillas with a Crystal Light Mixed Berry Drink (I will be doing a review on the Crystal Light packets this week as I got some free samples and I would like to share my thoughts. Follow me on Twitter or “Like” me on Facebook so you don’t miss out!)
Delicious Crispy Hot Semi-Healthy Quesadillas
Ingredients:
- 1 whole wheat tortilla
- frozen Banquet Spicy & Hot Chicken Tenders
- 1/8 cup cottage cheese
- mozarella shredded cheese to taste (couple of pinches for this girl)
- couple of handfuls of spinnach (torn up into smaller pieces)
How To:
- Cook 4 or 5 tenders according to instructions.
- Layer Mozzarella, then tenders, then spinnach, then cottage cheese and finally a little more mozzarella on one side of the whole wheat tortilla.
- Fold over and hold together with toothpicks.
- Place in toater oven or regular oven at 350 degrees for 5 to 10 minutes or until crispy.
- Enjoy!
Nothing can really top the lunch…but here’s what I had for the rest of the day:
Dessert {2pm}: Okay I stand corrected. I had some left over grandma dessert from Thanksgiving (See my family pictures!) My grandma made a variety of desserts, but I swiped some of her famous sugar cookies and a couple of pumpkin whoopie pies, which I had for dessert Monday with half of my Pumpkin Pie Americano I made for myself at my coffee job. Heaven.
Semi-healthy note on dessert: I try to eat my dessert with my meal when possible so that I don’t get a sugar spike and drop.
After showering and getting ready for job numero dos, I had what I like to call a forced early dinner. I know I won’t be able to have a full meal until I get home around 11 or midnight…so I opt to eat a little before work and bring snacks.
Early Din-Din {4:00pm}: Peanutbutter toasted Kashi 7 Grain waffle with granola to keep me fueled at my wings and beer job.
Snack {9pm}: Strawberry Nutrigrain Bar and 3/4 diet coke with 1/4 cherry coke combo plus the bottle of water consumed while working (plus a bite of a friend’s flatbread)

Second Dinner/Bedtime Snackaroo {11pm}: Triscuit Thin Crisps with String Cheese then BF’s grandma chocolate chip cookies and bedtime green tea
I am definitely getting into the Christmas spirit! Me and the Daddio put up the Christmas tree and decor today and watched Elf. Classic.
I will share more pics later since it is now my bedtime and I must get to sleep so I can work at my coffee catering job at 5:30am tomorrow. Yep. Early.

How early do you start decorating for Christmas?
