Remember I said I was going to try to get to the gym this morning? Well that never happened. I put my head on my pillow, and next thing you know, I fell asleep until around 12. Oops! Well, a girl needs her rest. ;) When I woke up, I was in the mood for another fruit smoothie, so I made one, but this time I added the remaining blueberries I had one hand. BEST. SMOOTHIE. EVER. Like seriously, I don’t understand why anyone would go to Jamba Juice when you can make a smoothie that’s even better right at home! I added 1 small champagne mango (I only have one left, I’m so upset!), some pineapple chunks, 1 kiwi, handful of remaining blueberries, frozen peaches, frozen strawberries, 1/2 of a frozen banana, and 1 tbsp of ground flax. I was planning on adding almond milk, but because there was enough fresh fruit, it blended up just fine w/o it! In usual style, I ate my smoothie with a spoon and savored it for as long as I could. Smoothies are my new obsession of the moment.

For lunch, I made a simple wrap with hickory smoked tofurkey, guacamole, grainy mustard, cucumber, soy feta, roasted red pepper, and some kidney beans that I had left over from my Cocoa Coconut Chili from the other day. Believe it or not, the wrap was delicious! I wasn’t too sure about the beans at first, but they definitely were a success. I didn’t have any spinach, broccoli slaw, carrot, or red pepper on hand which is what I generally love to stuff my wraps with, but this substitution worked well. I had my wrap with some pita chips, and saved my usual apple for later.

I’m on my way to Whole Foods right now to pick up some things (mainly produce). I’ll needing some carrots especially for my baking adventure tonight… Carrot Cake Cupcakes!! Every time Jenna mentioned them on her blog, I felt like making them, so now I’m finally going to get to it! I can’t wait for dessert (and dinner!!) tonight. See you then!
