Even though I am freezing my butt off this Winter in one of the coldest towns in Sunny Queensland.
I am still trying (a little bit) to share in the fun of the Summer Staples theme for this month - maybe if I pretend hard enough then I will be able to crawl out of my snuggie...

| Breakfast today consisted of an experimental 'summer' smoothy. ~ 1 small frozen banana ~ ~ cup of blueberries ~ ~ 1/2 cup of natural yoghurt ~ ~ 1/2 scoop of chocolate protein powder ~ ~ Handful of ice ~ Am I crazy for trying to drink a freezing cold smoothy in the middle of winter? Yes, yes I am. Am I intentionally trying to catch pneumonia and freeze to death? Not intentionally but it is on the cards. |
 |
| In a vain attempt to dethaw after injecting liquid winter into my veins for breakfast I decided to try this new cool soup tube for a snack. Matched with some wakeup coffee I managed to make it through the first half of the day. |
 |
| Cue dull salad for lunch. Baby Spinach, tomato, red capsicum (bell pepper), sugarsnap beans and marinated steak with nutritional yeast. I forgot salad dressing! Woe is me! So I crunched through a boring salad for lunch. |
 |
| I am loving popcorn at the mo. Low calorie and hits the spot when I start getting hungry at the end of the work day :) |
Now get ready be witness to the most delicious and healthy lasagna I have ever tasted!
I don't know about you guys... but I LOVE LOVE LOVE lasagna!
Due to the insane amount of calories in my classic go to recipe for traditional lasagna I hardly ever make it unless I am wanting a blow out.
I think it will become a staple now I have found the skinnytaste.com zucchini version. Cheesy, delicious and pasta free! Prepping the zucchini did take a bit of work but it was so worth the wait!
We paired a portion of lasagna with steamed sugar snap beans and plenty of broccoli :)
 |
| I picked up a few skinny cow products on sale in my last grocery trip. Tonight I treated myself to a delicious summery caramel sundae! Sooo good and such a perfect (and not too unhealthy) sweet finish to my day! |
If you have recently found a staple healthy alternative to a favourite food please share it with me!
Happy WIAW :)
The lasagna sure looks delicious and so does the sundae!

DeleteSoup in a tube? That's fantastic! And it blows my mind. How was it? Was it terrible? Was it magical? Tell me more, tell me more, like did it have a car?
ReplyDeletehaha yup soup in a tube. It was pretty magical :) Tastes like tomato soup not fake tasting at all suprisingly! Worth trying it if you can find it.
DeleteSmoothies and lasagna? Sounds like a delicious day of eats. Can't wait to try that smoothie :)
ReplyDeleteIt was a pretty good smoothy but too cold for me :(
