Three Beans A Day

While scanning the internet for helpful information today I stumbled upon an article on Health.com called 7 Frosty Treats Under 75 Calories. This list gave me pause, because some of the items listed were half of a diet ice cream sandwich, and 3 spoonfuls of ice cream. Really? Also, sugared frozen grapes! How about no sugar on the grapes, but more grapes please! Does anyone else find this odd?

Breakfast was eaten in the car, I am ashamed to say. A breakfast burrito prepared by Mr. Greens. We shared. sharing is caringThis monster had eggs, sharp white cheddar, and pinto beans.

Beans part I

Last night I didn’t prepare very well for today, so I didn’t make a lunch. (I never have enough time in the mornings, thus eating in the car.) Luckily I have an emergency burrito for these kinds of situations. Also I found out that my work cafeteria was serving shrimp stuffed baked potatoes for lunch today, and they looked glorious, but I’m glad I went to the gym and had my second burrito of the day. Highlights of the menu include boudin and muffulettaBeans Part II

After this treat I had 2 kiwis."won't sell an apple to a kiwi"

At some point in the day I had almonds and a Clif bar.Love these almonds

Dinner was a simple affair. I was craving red sauce, broccoli, and garbanzo beans or lentils, so I whipped up a casserole of sorts. My creation turned out pretty well.036

Ingredients:

  • one can of tomato sauce
  • one head of broccoli
  • one can of chickpeas
  • a stalk of green onion, chopped
  • 1/4 cup of mozzarella

It was pretty tasty for something that didn’t have a lot of planning.Beans Round III

I’m going to go think about renaming my blog, “BEANS, that’s all I ever eat.”
