First off, Happy 4th of July to my American family, friends, bloggers and followers. Hope you have a smashin’ day celebrating!
This past weekend was Canada Day (July 1st), so I took Friday as a vacation day and Monday was the stat holiday – 4 day weekends are the best. This meant I had a little more time to plan some meals for the family – that everyone ate!!!! Think picky toddler, vegan husband and pregnant me.
This month on Peas and Crayons it’s What I Ate Wednesday & Fitness – two of my favourite things.
Fitness goals for July:
{keep in mind I will be between 17 – 21 weeks pregnant during the month of July} yikes!
1. Run once/twice a week
2. Fitness DVD once a week (Prenatal, Jillian Michael’s)
3. In home workout from my blog (Killer Kardio, Quick Workout and pregnancy focused workout – posts to come)
I hope to work out 2-4 days per week, if my schedule permits, which it hasn’t lately 😦

What I Ate Wednesday:
(Here are a few of my latest favourites/cravings if you wish)
Salad (spinach, strawberries, blueberries, pear, yellow pepers, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds)
(cheese and egg on the left, Vegan on the right)
Top plate: Vegan sausages, roasted veggies with spice rub, mushrooms & onions all BBQ’D.
Farmer’s Market – Olive Bread
Bottom plate: BBQ chicken for me plus roasted veggies with spice rub, mushrooms and onions!
Normally, I hate onions, but this is one way I’ll eat ’em.
And for desert that night:
Vegan Strawberry shortcake!
Another delicious dinner:
Olive oil pasta with roasted veggies (with spice rub again) Vegan.
I also had salmon with this – picture not taken because I ate it that fast 🙂
And a little breakfast:
Love Grown granola, Coconut Greek Yogurt and Fresh Blueberries ! YUM!
That’s “July What I Ate Wednesday & Fitness” for ya!
The pasta with roasted veggies looks fabulous! What rub do you use?
