They say variety is the spice of life…
But I’m a creature of habit and I’d hate to think that makes me boring especially when I feel like my life is anything but!
With that, I do understand that we need variety in our lives – food included so I’ve been trying to change things up a bit. It may not be much but it’s a step in the right direction:
My usual lunch:
The variety:
This week’s variety of the variety (did you know that was possible?):
It may look the same but instead of banana bread, that’s zucchini bread. I tricked ya, huh? 😉
I’ve also been changing up my snacks a bit. With the weather getting warmed, I’m craving smoothies more and more:
And since Greek yogurt hasn’t been lunch quite so often but is still a constant craving, smaller yogurt bowls have been great for snack time:
They say variety is the spice of life and I’m doing my best to embrace that in every aspect of my life.
How do you “spice up” your eats?
I’m stuck in a rut with food. I wish it would warm up enough here for a smoothie! That looks awesome!
I definitely have routines…breakfast is usually the same PB toast but I change up the bread and type of nutbutter or even get crazy and add eggs to the mix! 😉
I tend to get fixated on a certain thing (eggs, wraps, cereal) but I almost ALWAYS have it a different way every time by changing up the toppings/sauces/mix ins! I’ve actually noticed over the last couple of months since starting IE that I crave a lot of variety in my meals…it keeps eating fun!
Zucchini bread is the best! I have never topped with with nut butter before, but I definitely will be the next time that I eat it.
Those blackberries look so good! I could eat that every day too.
I tend to eat a lot of the same things, so to “spice things up”, I will pick up a new-to-me product or produce item to experiment with at home. I usually blog about it–so it’s fun to research the item and write about my thoughts on it.
You totally tricked me with the bread switch up! I spice up my eats by picking up something new at the farmer’s market. My latest find was micro greens. It was fun to talk to the farmer about all the plants and the health benefits. Spice and Fun! Have a fabulous day!
Mmm banana bread smothered with PB sounds delightful!
Nice way to mix it up! Sometimes even the slightest change makes a big difference. Loved the post!
I am definitely a creature of habit and usually keep breakfast and lunches the same. I usually have a variety when I come to dinner though, especially since the weather is warmer now- more opportunity to grill!
I usually get fixated on one thing for breakfast but then try and mix up my lunches and dinners so I don’t get sick of them. But usually when I try and force variety too much I’ll wish for what I always had instead 🙂
