WIAW #12 Breakfast All Day

by Brittany on August 8, 2012

Happy What I Ate Wednesdayfriends!!  

I can’t believe it is Wednesday already.  The week is flying by!  Not that I’m complaining…  I’m ready for the weekend!  :)

My appetite has been all over the place lately.  Some days I’m starving… others I’m not.  However, no matter how much I eat at dinner, I ALWAYS go back for a snack.  I need to break this habit and only eat when I’m really hungry.  I am a huge snacker!  My WIAW are never my full and complete ‘meals’.  I photograph what I sit down to eat, but my hand is always in the granola jar!  

Yesterday’s eats was almost like eating breakfast all day.  Whoops.  

Breakfast

I have been craving the warm, comfy goodness of oats lately. I totally dropped the ball on taking a pic, but it looked something like this.

Lunch

Heather and Laura are all the time eating their drippy eggs, and I have been wanting to try one for forever.  However, I’ll be honest… I’m a whimp!  I have made progress though…  I tried a fried egg for the first time yesterday!!  I was still a wee little drippy in the middle.  Maybe next time I’ll put my big girl britches on and go for it!

I put my fried egg on top of some millet, sauteed mushrooms and veggies, and topped with avocado and salsa.

Snack

I had to work late yesterday, so I had an unpictured STUFT Mama protein cookie dough while making dinner and talking on the phone.  Multitasking at its finest!

Dinner

Dinner was a quick one, since I had to work late!  We had eggs with turmeric and spinach, sauteed veggies, and red potatoes.  This wasn’t too breakfast-y since we had the veggies.  Anytime I have eggs, I think breakfast.

I stole some of Luy’s potatoes, and he said they weren’t happy about it.  Yes…. we play with our food.  

Snack

We had some gluten free peach cobbler last night for a snack with some vanilla ice cream.  Of course, I used my coconut milk ice cream!

I’m trying to keep semi-healthy desserts in the house this week/month, because pretty sure someone around here has a big birthday tomorrow!

What good meals have you all had recently?

Does anyone else have to eat right before bed even if they aren’t hungry?

Who else loves breakfast foods for all meals??

That picture of your hubby makes me laugh! I’m loving that he made a sad face in his potato :) You two are too cute! I’ve been loving peaches lately too – and one of my favorite recent eats was the Caramelized Onion & Grilled Peach pizza I made. So.incredibly.yummy. I’m just sad it’s gone!!

Brittany August 11, 2012 at 8:05 pm

Thanks girl! He is a mess… :) I am so making your pizza this week, but subbing GF flours!!

Oh girl have no shame, I have yet to put my “big girl pants” on either when it comes dippy eggs. I see how good it looks on everyone elses page, but I just can’t get myself to do it! Wanna make a pack that we do it tomorrow together for lunch? haha.

Ohh i alwaysss have to have a dessert before bed. My day isn’t complete otherwise.

Reply

Brittany August 11, 2012 at 8:06 pm

Okay.. so we are both doing a drippy egg this next week? You on??
Life isn’t complete w/o dessert before bed. Period.

Jessie August 12, 2012 at 2:35 am

I actually had one for dinner on Friday. Girl, we have been missing out!! You are going to love it.. I promise! I put the dippy eggs between 2 slices of bread with some tomato & cucumber.. so good. However, I did forget ketchup so it wasn’t as good as it could be!!

Katie @ Talk Less, Say More August 8, 2012 at 9:42 am

Breakfast is breakfast, lunch and dinner for me! I often do oatmeal or toast for breakfast, yogurt or toast for lunch and eggs for dinner. Breakfast at it’s finest. ;)

You are my kind of girl!

Ashley @ My Food N Fitness Diaries August 8, 2012 at 10:20 am

Breakfast is easily my favorite meal of the day, so it’s not uncommon for me to have breakfast foods for most of my day’s meals and snacks. ;) That peach cobbler looks amazing!

Reply

Brittany August 11, 2012 at 8:07 pm

Breakfast is where it’s at!! The cobbler was awesome! I’ll post the recipe soon!

Emily @ Perfection Isn't Happy August 8, 2012 at 10:25 am

Yes, I always like to eat something sweet before bed! And we had eggs for dinner last night too. They’re about to go bad, and I wanted to use them up!

Reply

Brittany August 11, 2012 at 8:08 pm

Yes, we get farm fresh eggs, and so I try to eat them fast too!

Heidi @ Idlehide August 8, 2012 at 11:03 am

b’fast is by far my favorite meal of the day. We allllmost had breakfast food for our wedding because it’s our favorite.
Love the picture of Luvy’s sad potato:)

Reply

Brittany August 11, 2012 at 8:09 pm

We actually went to a wedding where they did bfast! Such a great idea!! Lol.. he is a mess! I about spat my food out when he did that!

Min August 8, 2012 at 11:42 am

Puhahah! Luvy sure doesn’t look happy ;) . That’s how TIm is, but I always pick at his food anyway hehe. I just can’t resist. mmm…peach cobbler…and it must be a la mode!! I’ve been seeing a lot of these cookie dough recipes in the blog world. I usually just use my protein powder to make smoothies, but this seems like a fun, delicious snack. I looked at the recipe and it says you can either eat it right away or refrigerate then eat. What do you prefer?
I can eat breakfast all day long too! PB&J for dinner taste extra satisfying and delicious when eaten later in the day. I, too, was really iffy about eating drippy eggs…my mom always told me they have to be cooked all the way. But sorry mom, you’re wrong! It’s so delicious! I’m glad you’re willing to give it a try..one step at a time ;)

Brittany August 11, 2012 at 8:10 pm

I have never refrigerated it.. it does’t make it that long! lol.. Doesn’t food always look better on their plate?? I love to share! :)

I will have to try that drippy egg…

Love this! I could eat breakfast all day, too. ;) I usually think of breakfast when I eat eggs. However, I’d honestly rather eat them for lunch!

Reply

Brittany August 11, 2012 at 8:18 pm

meeee too!!! I never have eggs for breakfast, but I think of them as a breakfast food!

Reply

Lisa August 8, 2012 at 3:58 pm

Breakfast all day is the greatest day ever! I could definitely do that daily.
I never eat eggs for breakfast and always make them for either lunch or dinner. For some reason its not a breakfast staple for me.
Haha, I get a little scared of the full drippy egg as well! Not too sure why, it just seems odd to do that.

Reply

Brittany August 11, 2012 at 8:18 pm

I do the same thing! I always have oats or a protein muffin for breakfast. I need to get some of that creamy buckwheat!

Reply

Wendy August 8, 2012 at 5:24 pm

Peach cobbler looks yummy!Bowl of cobbler, coffee and a good book you won’t hear a peek out of me.

Brittany August 11, 2012 at 8:19 pm

Cobbler is always good!

Laura @ LauraLikesDesign August 8, 2012 at 5:31 pm

I’m such a snacker too! My mom was always this way when I was growing up and I think it rubbed off on me!

Reply

Brittany August 11, 2012 at 8:19 pm

totally!! I love to snack!

Matt @ The Athlete's Plate August 8, 2012 at 7:51 pm

Breakfast = best meal ever :)

agreed!

Ashley @ Freckles and Spice August 8, 2012 at 9:43 pm

I love eating breakfast all day long. Eggs usually make more of an appearance in my lunch and dinner than in breakfast. My lunches often look very similar to yours today. Loooove egg avocado and salsa.
My evening snacks, if not ice cream, tends to look a lot like my breakfasts too – parfaits, granola, cereal, fruit, smoothies.

Reply

Brittany August 11, 2012 at 8:20 pm

So true! I think eggs are better for lunch or dinner than bfast. I think all my snacks are like my bfast!

Meg August 9, 2012 at 12:11 am

I’m jealous of you having breakfast all day ;)

And I am totally proud of you for frying an egg for the very first time :) You are amazing! I love you

Brittany August 11, 2012 at 8:20 pm

Thanks girl!!

Ellie@Fit for the Soul August 9, 2012 at 12:19 am

haha Luy’s expression and potato trick is too funny :P And omgness! You wouldn’t know how much I’d loooove to eat breakfast for every meal and many times I contemplate it! But then I’m torn between that, and veggies+egg (like your lunch!) because I crave it. And then there’s the whole aspect about getting all of my nutrients in my body so I end up eating breakfast food only in the a.m. And your cobbler looks awesome! <3

Reply

Brittany August 11, 2012 at 8:21 pm

Luvy is a mess I tell ya! I try to eat veggies at lunch and dinner even if I am having a “breakfast” type meal so that I can get in my nutrients! I’m sad the cobbler is gone. :(

lindsay August 9, 2012 at 6:53 am

Brittany August 11, 2012 at 8:22 pm

Coming your way next week! promise!

Jess August 9, 2012 at 11:21 am

breakfast all day sounds like the perfect day to me!!! And that cobbler looks so yummy! I don’t have to snack right before I go to sleep but I like to eat something light like an apple so I don’t go to bed hungry or wake up starving!

Reply

Brittany August 11, 2012 at 8:32 pm

I wish I didn’t have to snack at night! Even if I’m not hungry… I have to eat!

Heather @ Kiss My Broccoli August 11, 2012 at 1:26 am

BREAKFAST ALL DAY ERRR’ DAY!!! I’m sooooo happy for you! You’re very first (somewhat) drippy egg! Lol And I must say that is one big bowl of goodness right there! Love pairing my eggs with avocado and salsa! I had one today and couldn’t help but think of you…and Laura! ;)

I’m totally cracking up (ha, corny egg joke for ya) over that potato! Love the frowny face! Hahaha!

Reply

Brittany August 11, 2012 at 8:33 pm

Lol! I love you and your jokes! :) He is a mess isn’t he?!?! I’m so glad you thought of me when you had your egg! I feel special. I’m doing the drippy egg this week! PROMISE!
