WIAW - On a Tuesday

Happy Wednesday to all my readers :-)
I hope you've had a great today.

Today I have chosen to share with you What-I-Ate-Tuesday! My Wednesday meals are always so similar so that is why I'm given you some insight into other days of my week. This week's Tuesday was particularly exciting because it was 'burger day'. Each holidays my daughter and I have a day where we have a fry's burger :-) They sure are tasty and great for a treat but we don't eat them regularly since they aren't exactly 'health food'.


So here is what I ate yesterday:

Breakfast --> So incredibly tasty. I really enjoy eating quinoa for breakfast.
To make quinoa porridge, simply boil quinoa in milk and a touch of vanilla. Blend with a stick blender & add desired fruit.

Lunch --> a holiday treat! Lots of added veggies too :-) I love a good veggie burger.

Dinner --> I really enjoy Asian food but my husband does not, so while he was away for dinner this evening we made the most of it and enjoyed a tasty stir-fry. 
A frozen Asian veggie mix with rice noodles. Sauce was just soy sauce, sweet chili sauce & a tablespoon peanut butter. Absolutely delicious :-)


Question of the day:
What is something that you enjoy eating that your partner doesn't? 
When do you get to eat that food?

  3. looks great! what kind of vegan/chicken is that and can i get it in the states?

    i don't know many people who don't like asian food but my husband won't eat tomatoes or mushrooms and i tell him to make something else or pick it out... he usually picks stuff out.

    1. The pattie is a brand called "Frys" - I'm not sure if it's available in the U.S or not - sorry!
      hehehe I like that theory of telling hubbie to pick it out ;-) My hubbie doesn't eat mushrooms either!

  4. We donnot longer live at home but even when we did we always cooked and prepared our own food since our food habits are very different. It is a good way to learn to take care of yourself and learn to cook! :)

  5. We pretty much eat the same things, but when he has to travel for work, I feel like I can eat whatever and not worry about it. :)

    1. Yes I can relate - most things we eat together but I do have a bit more choice when I'm not trying to please everyone!!!

  6. Quinoa is so good! Love seeing you eat it for breakfast. I feel like so many people only eat it savory, but sweet quinoa is just fantastic.

    Happy WIAW!
