{WIAW #32} A Chocolatey Day

July 18, 2012 by Amanda R DeWitt

Hello Friends!

Well, what can I say.  I adore chocolate.

And apparently it’s good for you.  Antioxidants and whatnot.

This WIAW {What I Ate Wednesday} (<--check out that link for what WIAW is all about to me) is a compilation of the past two days that were chocolate-filled.

{Breakfast}

 Whole wheat toast smothered in Justin’s Chocolate Hazelnut Nutbutter.  Oh my goodness that stuff is AMAZING!  Dave (the BF) said “nutbutter” sounded dirty.  He’s obviously not a foodie like us, huh? 😉

{Pre-workout}

 I had this particularly yummy bar as pre-workout fuel for my 4-miler yesterday.

{Post-workout}

Delightful post-workout smoothie that seriously tasted like cake-batter.  Vanilla protein powder + almond milk.  Yum.

{Lunch-ish}

I’ve had kind of a snacky lunch lately.  Yesterday’s lunch-ish included some beanitos and Tostitos Artisan Black Bean and Garlic with some cottage cheese for dipping.  Along with some crunch carrot chips.

{Dinner}

Grilled chicken leftover on top of baby romaine and some sweet peppers.  Topped with “italian” cheeses.

I also had my mixture of Cheribundi and flavored water.  That stuff is tart so it helps to dilute it.

{Dessert}

Cookie bar thing topped with melted chocolate and butterscotch chips.  I just might be sharing this recipe soon if you guys want. 😉

{Bedtime Snack}

A recent staple of mine: PEANUTBUTTER CHEERIOS.  Plus granola and mini chocolate chips.  Side of string cheese!

Hope you’re all having a lovely Wednesday! 🙂
