A Stop At Whole Foods + Loaded Salads

I’m a day late this week on sharing recent meals but better late than never!

I went to Whole Foods the other afternoon for a few things.

I bought organic Honeycrisp apples, a few bottles of 365 light organic ranch dressing, a bag of shredded brussels sprouts, plus a few things from the frozen section:

Organic White Quinoa – I could make this myself on the stove with dry quinoa but I haven’t been so maybe this will motivate me to eat quinoa more often.

Organic Shoestring Cut Fries – I love these french fries with salads, with a veggie burger, or on the side of roasted veggies with hummus – the bag is cut open because I heated up some fries right away when I got home!

Riced Cauliflower Stuffing – I think I bought a version of this at Trader Joe’s last year.

I made the below salad for lunch with the following ingredients:

Shredded brussels sprouts cooked with a little olive oil, chopped onion, and everything but the bagel seasoning from Trader Joe’s.
Chickpeas
Quinoa
Tomatoes
Cucumber
Romaine
Avocado

There was no need for dressing on this salad because the brussels sprouts combination had so much flavor. It was really good!

Talk about a loaded salad bowl. Here’s a list of everything in the below salad:

Romaine
Roasted Tomatoes
Roasted Sweet Potatoes
Dr. Praeger’s Veggie Burger
Chickpeas
Cucumber
Onion
Feta Cheese
Hummus

A few days ago while shopping at Trader Joe’s, I bought the Garden Vegetable Hash as something a little different to work with to make dinner.

For this particular dinner, I cooked the garden vegetable hash in a little olive oil and added chickpeas before combining it with roasted sweet potatoes, hummus, and feta cheese. I’m in a major humus and feta cheese phase right now!
