Five Things Friday 5.16.2014

After two big weekends with the mini marathon Brian’s graduation celebration, this weekend is actually pretty low-key.

I’ve got a couple of crafty things I’ll be working on tonight and tomorrow, some fun blog stuff to set up and other fun/productive things that I need to knock off my to-do list.

Should be a great weekend!

Now for some Five Things Friday 🙂

Five Things I Ate:

  • This is what my mom and I call “summer drink.”  It’s just sparking water with lime, and maybe a splash of cranberry.  It’s so refreshing and the perfect thing to have after dinner in the evening 🙂  I had it twice this week!

  • An overloaded baked sweet potato.  Brian and I had TONS of leftovers from his graduation party fajita bar, so I loaded up a sweet potato with fajita veggies, black beans, salsa, tomato, guacamole, and lettuce and it made the most amazing dinner.

  • I didn’t make a frittata for breakfast this week, so my breakfasts were different almost every single day!  One day I had 2 hardboiled eggs, half a sweet potato, and strawberries and blueberries topped with homemade pecan butter.

  • I mixed this black bean dip with tuna and veggies to make a tuna salad and I also ate it on it’s own with raw veggies…so yummy!Clean and Simple Black Bean Dip via Treble in the Kitchen

  • The new Marsh in downtown Indianapolis.  It is laid out very well, the staff is extremely helpful and welcoming, and when Brian and I visited we knew just about every other shopper in the store! The best part? When they didn’t have some items I was looking for (tempeh and organic, free-range chicken), they took down the items and told me they would order them so they would start carrying them!  How awesome is that?

  3. Thanks for the share Tara 🙂 and I saw the Buzzfeed article… so cool! I definitely don’t have that problem haha. Loving all your eats (as per usual). I haven’t brought back too many beans/legumes since Whole 30 as I’m a bit nervous and feeling like “if it aint broke why fix it” but seeing your yummy dip and other bean dishes make me miss them. Have a great weekend! xo

    • I was a bit nervous at first, so I just paid attention to how I felt and I really still feel great eating the beans/legumes. I think that different things work for different people, so just do what feels right! Happy weekend!
