Woohoo! I am even more excited to post now because of how awesome by blog looks! If you missed it, the new design went live last night. You can find out who designed it and where to find her in last night’s post! I am going to have a very special celebratory giveaway at the end of the week to celebrate the new look!
Now let’s get on with WIAW, courtesy of Jenn!
I woke up, did my Insanity Fit Test (improved on every exercise!), and then refuelled with this bad boy:
I made the same hugh jass vegan pancake that I made last week but topped it with a sauce I made out of blueberries, water, Greek yogurt, and coconut sugar. YUM. Top it with coconut = double YUM.
Snack attack ensued about two hours later! Hungry like a hippo these days (thank you, Shaun T!). I made a little bowl of Greek yogurt, original Puffins, sliced banana, blueberries, and more COCONUT!
This was actually very delicious. I stayed away from Greek yogurt for a while because I thought it was playing funny games with my stomach but everything seems to be A-OK now!
My lunch inspiration came from the WIAW lady herself! Jenn is always posting pictures of her famous stuffed sweet potatoes so I thought I’d give it a try!
I baked it, sliced it in half and filled it with lettuce, black beans, Greek yogurt, salsa, cheddar, and jalepenos. Jenn, you are onto something because this hit.the.spot!
Dinner was boring but good.
I just chopped and mixed whatever I could find in my fridge: lettuce, cucumbers, olives, feta, grated carrot, and corn. I just used olive oil and white balsamic for my dressing.
There you have it. I love coconut, I am boring, and I like food that can be prepared and eaten within 10 minutes. Though I’m not a culinary superstar, I’m getting into the good habit of eating every few hours and incorporating way more veggies into my meals these days and that makes me feel great!
Do you prefer sweet potatoes or regular potatoes?
Do you have any food intolerances? Dairy, gluten, etc?

LOVE the new look of the site love!! And I’m definitely a sweet potato girl ALL THE WAY! I don’t even like regular potatoes!
I’m sensitive to too much dairy and gluten so I make sure not to have many of those!
I tried the protein pancakes they were so filling could only eat one I put fresh punkin in mine and topped with blueberries and kiwi.
I’ve been saying I need to re-design my blog for eh about 6 months now! Yours looks incredible and it looks like you may have gotten a new camera too? Did I miss that? Either way your blog and your photos look phenomenal!
Thanks, b! I didn’t get a new camera…these are all iPhone pictures. No joke. I don’t even think I edited these ones. Maybe just a colour boost?
Your site looks fantastic!
Jenn’s sweet potatoes are amazing. I wish I could have one every meal!
I don’t think I have food intolerances, but I do find if I eat too much dairy that my face breaks out.
New site is looking good! I love coconut too! I’m a lazy cook so while I’ve always thought that those sweet potatoes look amazing I’ve never actually tried one. Maybe some day………Oh, and I am lactose intolerant. Boo.
Oh my goodness you are making me drool! The food looks so good, your new blog layout looks amazing, and gosh I just love you!
Have an amazing day!
I am with you on the coconut addiction.
Love coconut too !!! so freaking good ! Your snack looks pretty “délicieux !!!”
It’s not really an intolerance but I have to eat less carbs as I have an irritable bowel syndrome : I still eat them but I’m very carefull … I avoid rice, pasta, potatoes, and as much as I can I choose the whole grain version of them
Sweet potatoes!!!
Omgggg all your meals look so delicious, especially that stuffed sweet potato. I’m drooling. I need to make that asap!!
I am obsessed with coconut! It’s not normal. haha
Sweet potaters!!!! Especially when it comes to fries…mashed sweet potatoes with coconut milk, some nut meg and salt is also fantastic…
I think if I lived my life as if I had a gluten intolerance I would be healthier…but I don’t have any official intolerances…
it has been far too long since i have had PUFFINS!!!! haha! LOVE LOVE LOVE your blog!
Coconut is good
I like sweet potatoes, but the white flesh ones, they are firmer
Your new blog design looks awesome 
Love the new look!
I think you just described me! I love coconut, I’m boring, and I like foods that can be prepared and eaten within 10 minutes. :c)
mmmm good looking breakfast chickie
i definitely prefer sweet taters!
That pancake looks decadent!
Your new blog design looks awesome! I love the colours!
I’m more of a sweet potato girl, but I still love regular potatoes too. And I’m allergic to nuts which is a major PITA (pain in the….)!
I just checked out that pancake recipe. Looks great, especially because there are no eggs! YAY! I do have a question though: Have you ever tried making the pancake with anything other than oat flour? I can’t eat anything with oats because of stomach issues, but I was thinking that quinoa flakes/flour may be substitutable here. Thoughts?
The new design looks amazing!
I’m also obsessed with coconut, I think its problematic now.
Have you tried coconut butter or flour?
You MUST!
ugh, i’m allergic to sweet potatoes. it breaks my heart. i’ve tried so many times and i just can’t eat them :*(
i love red roasted potatoes though!
easy chopped “throw in everything there is left in the fridge” salads are really in style in my life too at the moment!! i wished i had more time for cooking or even EATING! haha… stuffed sweet potatoes are fabulous… i took my inspiration from jen too!
