As I mentioned in a post earlier this week, one of my February goals is to nail a whole food, plant-based breakfast every day. No vegan sausage & Just Egg sandwiches this month! Just whole foods (and no sugar) for breakfast. I'm focusing on monthly goals in 2022, and my other Feb goals are strength training 3x a week and journaling every single day. Plus, I'm still on a yoga and foam rolling streak!
I made Overnight Oats from the Complement Well app this week for breakfast. These have almond milk, chia seeds, chopped dates, allulose (a natural sugar-free sweetener), and matcha powder. I topped them with a little Picky blueberry granola, raspberries, and unsweetened Kite Hill Greek yogurt.
I started a new job this week, and although I'll be mostly working from home, I'm going into the office a bit as I learn new things. On Monday, my first day, I wanted to bring a very easy lunch because I didn't know what kind of equipment they had in the break room. Fortunately, I picked up this Wicked Foods Punchin' Potatoes & Beans Chili Mac on clearance at Kroger, and that was perfect. I love the Wicked Foods line, but it's so expensive. Always fun to find things like this on sale! It was surprisingly filling with bean chili and pasta. I also packed some Rosemary Garlic Ka-pop Chips from my Vegan Strong box.
On Tuesday, my second day in the office, I went out for lunch with a co-worker (who also happens to be an old friend) at Wrapzody downtown. I noticed they had a vegan menu so I wanted to check it out. They have several vegan options (including a Beyond Burger), but I went with a classic Garden Vegan Wrap (with black beans, corn, hummus, romaine, mushrooms, and red onions) and Veggie Chips.
Congratulations on the new job! It's exciting, and great that you'll be able to work from home. I like your February goals- mine are similar. It's challenging to fit in the strength AND yoga on top of running, right? I'm liking your healthy breakfast ideas- those oats sound delicious.
