Hump Day Eats...

Good Morning!  I'm so happy we are already into Thursday! After today, we are one more day closer to the weekend :-)

Alright, let's get into Wednesday eats. 

Yesterday, I started off my day with a big, hot, mug of black coffee. I love the taste of coffee, that's why I prefer it hot and straight up!

Along side my mug of coffee I had a delicious oat waffle topped with sliced banana and almond butter. I love this breakfast and look forward to it every morning. 

A few hours later, I got hungry and had a small handful of pretzel crisps. 

I also had some carrots and celery. It's Wellness Week at work, so these were all over the office. 

I made it to the gym soon afterwards and got 30 minutes of cardio in. This happened on the stair master: 

More on my workouts later...

After the gym I had a turkey and cheese sandwich using Ezekiel bread. This hit the spot since I was ravenous. I also had grapes and a banana. 

By the time dinner time came around, I was RAVENOUS!  Dinner was Trader Joe's Vera Cruz fish and salad with cilantro dressing. 

This was delicious. 

I was still hungry so this happened:

Smoothie made with berries and almond. 

And that my friends is what I ate on Wednesday. 

I am currently typing this up on the train. Starving and waiting to eat this soon:

If you are on the east coast stay warm peeps. If you're on the west coast, I hate you :-p

Peace out for now!

Restaurant Review: Bombay Sandwich Co.

Bombay Sandwich Co. is a new and healthy Indian sandwich shop that has opened in Chelsea. Ever since I heard about this place I was dying to try it! 

Not only is the food full of flavor but it's all vegetarian and full of good for you ingredients. 

When walking into Bombay Sandwich Co. you know it's a small space that has been decorated very clean, neat and simple. You walk in and you feel like you are walking into a warm, inviting place. There's something about the comforting atmosphere and the warm hearted people that make you want to stay. 

Bombay Sandwich Co. uses local ingredients and pairs them up with fragrant Indian spices. The menu offers an array of dishes such as platters, salads and bowls, all of which are gluten free. Sandwiches and wraps can also be ordered but are not gluten free.  

Last week, I ordered the Bombay Club which is potato, cucumber, onion and tomato in between THREE layers of seven grain bread. In between all the fresh veggies was a schmear of green chutney. Ah, heavenly. This was so fresh, the toasted bread added a great crunch and heartiness. The green chutney added deep, smoky flavor. 

I also ordered myself a cup of chai (black tea infused with ginger and cardamom and milk). The chai was very delicious and comforting on such a cold day. You could taste the ginger in every sip. The chai was also milky without feeling heavy and was slightly sweet.

The chai was great but then I sampled the cardamom coffee. OH MY GOOODNESS!! This is the first time I had cardamom coffee and it blew my socks off. At first, I didn't know how I would like the combination of cardamom and coffee but as soon as I took a sip I realized these flavors should have married a long time ago. We are talking a rich coffee taste paired with a sweet slightly licorice like flavor, blended with creamy milk. I could seriously have this every day. Good job Bombay Sandwich Co. 

Overall, I LOVE this place and am excited to try out more dishes. Next time, I'm going to get myself a bowl and a smoothie (I'm looking at you, Yogis Choice :-p). 

Bombay Sandwich Co... Keep dishing out these amazing, healthy and flavorful dishes!

Recipe Alert: Oat Waffles

Good Morning and Happy Hump Day!  Keep it up guys...just a few more days till the weekend :-)

So, you know those delicious waffles I've been having for breakfast most mornings? Well I wanted to share the flavor and health and give you guys the recipe...an incredibly easy recipe!

Let's get to it!

Ingredients:

1 cup of oats

1 cup of water

1/2 banana

1tsp of vanilla extract

Preparation:

Turn on your waffle maker and set to high. Blend all ingredients.  Lightly spray your waffle maker with some oil. Place batter in and cook until done. Enjoy!

Servings: 2

That's it folks. It's that easy. I LOVE these waffles. They are vegan and fiber packed.

I usually make a stack of these Sunday evening, to have for breakfast during the week. I just pop them in the toaster or toaster oven to reheat.  

You can top these waffles any way you like. My most favorite way to eat them is to quarter the waffle, add almond butter and banana :-)

Soooo delicious!!

I hope you guys make this recipe!

Hump Day...

Hey Hey People! Happy hump day. 

I hope you guys in the east coast are keeping warm and not putting yourself at risk for frost bite. Today is suppose to be a balmy 25 degrees :-p

I didn't post any food pics yesterday because I feel I've been eating the same meals everyday. Also, let's be real -why bore you!

My breakfasts have been the usual: Oat Waffle with Almond Butter and Banana 

Lunch: Lentil Shepherds Pie with Kale

For dinner, we braved the cold and went to Hoboken. 

We went to Mamoun's Falafel!

I ordered the vegetarian plate combo over salad. This came with hummus, baba ganoush and beans over salad. I ate all of this with a pita. Delish!

I'm hoping I'll be able to go check out a Curves gym today. It's right next to work and a workout is suppose to be 30 minutes. Let's see...

Hope you all are doing well!
