Hello Everyone! Welcome to another What I Ate Wednesday!

Thanks Jenn for hosting! This week I’m happy to be able to join the party :)

And in fact, someone else is happy to join the party too… (even if he doesn’t look it!)

This is our new kitten, Weasley. And yes, he is named for the gingers in Harry Potter ;)

So far he’s pretty shy, but hopefully he’ll warm up to us soon! I hope he’ll be useful in catching those nasty bugs.

He didn’t seem too interested in my food; hopefully you all will give me a better response!

Breakfast:

Quinoa & honey bread with crunchy almond butter and banana

I learned about this really great bakery that’s within walking distance (!) of my house. Oh, and did I mention it’s gluten free!! Bartek and I went to check it out a few days ago and it is amazing!! I’m going to do some more research and then maybe do a post about it :)

Snack:

Perfect little snack to grab for the road! Gala Apple

Lunch:

Just a simple salad: lettuce, red pepper, cucumber. Hummus and spicy mustard to top.

I’m not a huge, huge fan of lettuce. Sometimes I’ll be really feeling it, but most days not. But if I top lettuce with my mustard and hummus topping, I can hardly resist!

Snack:

Love Grown granola in Sweet Cranberry Coconut Pecan, strawberries, and Oikos Greek yogurt in plain

Dinner

Spicy Honey Mustard chicken, sweet potato fries, roast zucchini and broccoli

I’ve been obsessed with this Clubhouse spice called Indian Masala (from the website):

An aromatic blend of garam masala spices, including coriander and cumin with mild heat that can be used to create any full flavoured Indian dish.

This spice has zero heat, but it tastes really good on top of roasted veggies!

I also made spicy honey mustard chicken- all I did was add equal parts honey and mustard, plus a considerable amount of sriracha (until it was spicy enough). I roasted the chicken with the sauce on and it was great! Definitely recommend!

Dessert:

Here are two maple cookies and one of the Stash teas from my foodie penpal!

It was a delicious day!

Now off to play with the kitten! He had his shots yesterday, so he had a bit of a rough night, but he seems to be feeling better today. At least I get that impression when he hisses at me!

Any tips for how to get Weasley to like me?
