What I Ate Wednesday #23
Happy Wednesday! I hope you are having a great week! I know things are always crazy after returning to work from a holiday! Hopefully things are starting to slow down and get back to normal…so that you have plenty of time to drool over all the food pictures for our favorite day of the week! It feels like forever since I have shared my meals with you since last Wednesday I had a Recipe Redux post! Don’t fear though! I didn’t stop eating….no, I actually think I ate enough for 4 people while home for Thanksgiving! Ugh! I was going to share my Thanksgiving day eats, but I realized I only took 1 or 2 pictures the whole time I was home! That’s what happens when you are stuffing your face spending quality time with family! 
Luckily, as soon as I got back home I was on the 100% clean eating train again! To be honest, I really miss my veggies and clean meals after 24 hours of junk. Is that crazy?
Meal #1
I started out the day with a 17mile training run and then followed it up with a Pumpkin Pie Smoothie from Jolynn except I used protein powder instead of egg whites! Then I put my legs up against the wall for a bit to relax!
Meal #2
A new recipe creation (I will leave you guessing until the posting 
) with a side of greek yogurt and a sliced banana!
Meal #3
Thanksgiving inspired healthy meal….egg and egg white omelet, turkey breast, butternut squash with cinnamon and cranberries!
Meal #4
Yes, yes…ANOTHER new muffin recipe! And yes you will have to wait for this one too! (I’m such a tease, I know!) with a side of goat’s milk yogurt and sunflower seeds!
Meal #5
Thanksgiving inspired salad (I think I’m having Thanksgiving withdrawals!) butter lettuce, butternut squash, green beans, sauteed mushrooms, shredded turkey breast, cranberries, avocado, greek yogurt and dijon mustard! Was soooo good!
Meal #6
A Plate full of goodness….carnival squash with lots ‘o cinnamon, green beans, goat cheese stuffed chicken breast and my homemade cranberry ‘jelly’!
Meal #7
Before bed a delicious protein smoothie bowl! Coconut milk, casein protein, Trader Joe’s Very Berry Blend, Ricotta and of course the magic ingredient (xanthum gum)!
Even though I am still eating thanksgiving food for every meal, at least it’s a healthy version!
