Today’s lunch wasn’t really a lunch at all, but more like a snack plate:
I haven’t snacked my way through lunch in quite a while!
I ate these snacks about an hour apart – first the veggies and hummus:
Then the star of the show – avocado wraps, which was just sliced avocado wrapped in organic turkey slices:
SO good and simple.
And third was Greek yogurt, raspberries, and granola:
What you don’t see is the cup of coffee that I snuck down to the café here at work to grab before my 11:00 meeting. Thusly, I broke up 2 cups of coffee/day rule. Damn. Well, there’s always tomorrow!
But really, that was last week’s goal. I’m still carrying it over and trying to make it a habit, but I have two new boot camp goals for this week:
- Foam rolling after each workout
- Drink 3 of these
dirtyjugs full of water every day
The first one’s going to be a toughie. Tina, you might not see as many check marks from me this week, but I’m gonna try my hardest! 
What you also don’t see in my snack plate is my larabar that I saved to eat on the way from the office and to the gym before training a few clients tonight, which brings me too…
LARABAR Giveaway!
My pal, Annie, at larabar offered me to do a giveaway for a chance for one reader to win some tasty larabar snacks.
One reader will win 2 Cherry Pie and 2 Peanut Butter Cookie Larabars. If I had both cherry pie and peanut butter larabars right now, I think what I would do is take half of each, combine them, heat them up in the microwave and then put them in some greek yogurt for PBJ yogurt. But that’s just me. And I digress.
Anyway, all you have to do to enter is leave a comment below telling me what your afternoon snack was/is going to be today, and I’ll randomly pick the winner by tomorrow afternoon’s post (2 pm central time-ish.) This giveaway is open to US residents only.
Have a fab Tuesday, ya’ll!
What’s your afternoon snack today?
What’s your favorite deli meat?
I just had a delicious orange for an afternoon snack! I love the peanut butter larabars and would love to try the cherry pie – yum!
Two clementines have been my afternoon snack as of late – but Larabars would be nice!
Ohhh your snacky style lunch looks awesome – particularly the avocado/turkey roll-ups, genius!
I LOVE larabars, esp when traveling! I really like your idea of half and half with yogurt, mm!
My snack this afternoon, hmmm. I’m sort of undecided. It may be an apple with peanut butter. Or a chobani. Or some fresh pineapple and a baby belle cheese. How’s that for options??
My afternoon snack was an apple with chunky peanut butter and a handful of almonds! So good!!
Homemade carrot cake protein bars…in about 15 mins!
my typical afternoon/pre workout snack is a Cliff Mini Bar. Today I kind of had a snack day. I ate 1/2 of my lunch at 12:30, a veggie burger on a 100 call eng muffin w/ mustard then i had the other 1/2 around 2:30 as a snack. This weekend i made butternut squash mac and cheeze (http://ohsheglows.com/2011/03/10/butternut-squash-mac-n-cheeze-two-ways/).
pretty tasty for not having cheese in it i thought.
My afternoon snack was supposed to be an apple and string cheese however I completely overate at lunch and there is no way I am forcing any more food in me right now : )
Eating it right now! Mini-box of Sun-Maid raisins and a little Sweet ‘n Salty snack mix pack thingy.
My afternoon snack is a spoonful of peanut butter mixed with some cheerios! I also have a small batch of overnight oats plus strawberries for before a late night workout.
Apple cinnamon Chobani with homemade granola!
perfect post workout snack!
My afternoon snack/pre-run is usually a cliff bar but today might have to be a clementine.
i actually have a cappuccino larabar in my gym bag for after my workout today!
LOVE larabars!
My snack today actually WAS a pb cookie Larabar! Love them!
My snack today actually WAS a pb cookie Larabar. I love them!
Some dry cereal and choco chips
and I love smoked turkey slices – I like cutting them up and putting them in my salads.
My afternoon snack is actually a brownie Larabar! And an apple… I’m extra hungry today!
I’m eating my afternoon snack right now! Sort of the same as yours- Greek yogurt topped with frozen raspberries (they get all juicy as they melt throughout the day).
Well, I didn’t have a PM snack today because I thought I was going to have to get blood drawn at my doc appointment and ate my breakfast + lunch all together afterward. But I did break my fast with a banana, so that’s the snack I’ll mention.
My snack today was ants on a log! It makes me feel like a kid again, and will hopefully let me power through my workout!
I betcha it sure does, Laura!
My afternoon snack was a vanilla chobani and sunflower seeds (separate, not together!)
Grapes and chocolate!
My afternoon snack was trail mix and protein balls that I make!
My classic afternoon snack is 2 low fat string cheese and either triscuits or homemade almond crackers. But today I had a BIG lunch for my birthday so no snack needed today!
I’m eating some Flatout cinnamon crisps, an apple and a 100 calorie Trader Joe’s dark chocolate bar.
omg those Flatout crisps sound delicious!
An apple and a handful of almonds. And I successfully passed up cookies at work
My snack is a delicious natural peanut butter and sliced banana on a piece of whole grain bread. Yummm!
pink lady apple with crunch time peanut butter!!! mmm
pink lady’s are my favorite!
Your Larabar/greek yogurt PB&J sounds like an awesome afternoon snack! I feel like I’ve had an afternoon of snacks rather than a real lunch too. Most recently, apple slices and pb were on my plate. The pup was drooooling
I had an apple with sunbutter!
think thin bar!
I’ve finally gotten on the larabar train this past couple of months and am in love with the cherry pie flavor
Today’s snack was an all natural string cheese with a super juicy orange.
So cool! i am loving tina’s bootcamp support. I need to participate next time. And the snack pack, ya thats totally my style lunch.
p.s.
my afternoon snack was a strawberry protein drink. A new one. Pretty good too.
I neeeed to try your healthy bites
Today’s snack was a Fiber One oats and peanut butter bar! So yum, but I love lara bars!
Today it was some grilled chicken and avocado:)
I’m a huge snack plate kind of gal. I can never decide on ONE thing for lunch…I much prefer a little of this little of that. For snack today I had carrots with peanut butter
Those turkey/avocado wraps look really good!! I’m slowing adding meat back into my diet and it looks like it may be time to add back in some deli meat
My afternoon snack today was a clif z-bar and some almonds/raisins…but I wish it were a larabar!!!!
Brandon and I are obsessed with the Boar’s Head cracked pepper turkey. It’s like $10/lb so we don’t buy it every time, but when we do it disappears in less than 3 days.
today I had my usual afternoon snack: plain greek yogurt with a chopped apple, cinnamon, and stevia. yum!
I randomly had some leftover roasted brussels sprouts from dinner the night before. I don’t know why, but I was craving them!
My afternoon snack was a “baked apple”. Apple + little water+ cinnamon covered with a papertowel and microwaved for a couple minutes. So good. If only my kids didn’t steal most of it
Raw cashews!
It’s a pleasure to find someone who can idetifny the issues so clearly
An apple, chocolate soy milk, and walnuts! =)
I would love to try the PB flavor!
My go to snack is apple and PB or yogurt and granola with berries both eats are done often
My snack was greek yogurt with protein powder and granola mixed in!
I had a ginger Lara bar
Mine was so boring..Grapes and a banana
my favorite snack is cottage cheese with a banana!
I’ve never had that combo! I like cottage cheese and peaar.
Actually, my afternoon snack was a cashew cookie larabar!
my snack today was a homemade pumpkin chocolate chip muffin & some yogurt & blueberries
My afternoon snack is almonds and an apple
Yesterday I was in a rush so my snack was a cheese stick, and a mini blueberry Larabar I had left over from a race. I’ve never thought to heat them up and put them in yogurt…. sounds pretty good!!!!
They get so yummy and melty!
I had an apple with almond butter for snack. I love Larabars, especially the cherry and apple pie. As for lunch meat, it would have to be a roasted turkey but very thinly shaved (I have lunch meat texture issues) and I have to eat it in the 1st 2 days. Go figure!
No I agree – it gets a funky taste if open for more than a couple days.
I am a big fan of Greek yogurt with blueberries, cinnamon and dash of stevia. Oh, and almost. Gotta have crunch.
I agree! The crunch is where it’s at
I had an apple with almond butter. Yum!
I have a bag of veggies (carrots, celery, cucumber) and a hardboiled egg to snack throughout the afternoon!
veggies and cottage cheese mixed with salsa…sounds weird, tastes AMAZING!
i don’t like deli meat but i love snacks! apples and peanut butter!
I have a hankering for an old fave for a snack today — fritos and cottage cheese — don’t judge
I remember you used to always eat this! Yum
I’m going to have a piece of some pumpkin protein bars that I made- recipe courtesy of Jamie Eason!
Mmm sounds tasty!
i tend to kind of graze all day, but my snacks usually include fruits and veggies, yogurt, or mini “wraps” using small whole wheat tortillas
Really when someone doesn’t be aware of then its up to other people that they will help, so here it occurs.
