I didn't see this thread going yet so thought I would start it.

I'm having bbq nachos. They are dreamy

Furmommy · March 2017

Pineapple and Apples

Honeycrisp apples... so good. I can't get enough, but now i am getting canker sores from all the acidity!

av2323 · March 2017

@wenninger2016 Honeycrisp are my favs!

heatherdubrow · March 2017

I'm at a hotel eating tortilla chips with 3 kinds of dips!

bean1818 · March 2017

Wheat thins the sun dried tomato & basil kind, yum!

jakobaby · March 2017

Ice cream sandwich!

av2323 · March 2017

@heatherdubrow You are doing it right!

Since my birthday was on Monday but we haven't had time to celebrate it yet, my Mom brought over my favorite birthday treat today. We call it a "Chocolate Lush" and it basically has a crust and layers of chocolate pudding, cream cheese, and cool whip. So not off to a healthy start.

But YUM. We had to change my kids' clothes after lunch because they were completely covered in chocolate pudding afterwards.

Jalapeno Kettle Chips... Like my life depends on it.

kschref · March 2017

Tonight we are having Samosa Pie because I'm too lazy to make individual samosas and brussels sprouts seasoned with onion soup mix because that's the only way I like them, lol. I'm also having a vega one protein shake because I was feeling dizzy. The kids are having leftover mac&cheese, mixed veggies, and applesauce.

I just had a realllllllly good burger but the fries were mediocre, pfff

PumpkinTi · March 2017

all the snacks...

jess0211 · March 2017

DH made us burgers for dinner and I added some veggies to the side with mine. It was delicious.

@kschref tell me about these Brussel sprouts!

I basically get 2 bags of Brussels sprouts and cut each sprout in half. Then I put just a little bit of oil in a pan and start to saute them. After they start to get going, I take a package of dry Lipton's Onion Soup and sprinkle it over them, add just enough water(maybe 1 cup?) to get it wet and mixed up and then I put a lid on it and let them go on a low-medium heat until most of the liquid is absorbed. There's no real recipe - just something my MIL made up, but I love it.

I had balsamic pot roast with potatoes and carrots in the crock pot all day and had totally forgot about it during my grueling evening at Girl Scouts (thank you pregnancy brain!) so when I got home it was like freakin Christmas!

slaven · March 2017

Sweet mayo cheese pringles, chicken, cheese, orange juice

bean1818 · March 2017

Today oatmeal and salad:/ what I really want is a bunch of girl scout cookies

Tourmalily · March 2017

I ate a brownie for breakfast. And then a banana, a bagel, and salad for lunch

Beth Belt · March 2017

I'm really craving a spicy Italian sandwich from subway, but I'm trying not to give in because I know you're not supposed to eat deli meat. Gah

flowerpower5838 · March 2017

I ate jimmy johns and potbellys often last pregnancy. This is going to sound doom and gloom but Listeria is everywhere so when it come to deli meat and sushi and whatnot, I think the "newer" rule of thumb is use good judgement and eat at places you trust.

Eta - I'm not a doctor obviously so only do what you are comfortable with.

heatherdubrow · March 2017

@flowerpower5838 I agree! And most cases of listeria you hear about is from produce. I ate so many jimmy johns sandwiches during both my pregnancies. But it's all about what you're comfortable with.

slaven · March 2017

I mostly hear about listeria in bagged lettuce and spinach or peanut butter. I have heard about watching for nitrates in deli meat but I feel like that's just a don't eat deli meat for every meal kind of thing.

kschref · March 2017

Making a barley/carrot pilaf today for dinner. I have been told by my 3 year old that 'pilaf' is a crazy word. Translation, he's probably not going to eat any.

heatherdubrow · March 2017

My H is making filet mignon for me, my mom, and my bff tonight. I'm making twice baked potatoes to go with it. I'm so excited!

jusmel21 · March 2017

Grapes, strawberries, oranges. Pretty much any kind of fruit. I made some chocolate covered strawberries today. They were to die for!!

SarahEmmons330 · March 2017

Baked potato with butter, sour cream, chili and cheese… I'm going to regret this later!!!

CurlyQT1721 · March 2017

I'm making bacon burgers for dinner. I've been craving one for the last 3 days!

ArtificialRed · March 2017

Homemade vegan pizza!

jess0211 · March 2017

I made spice cake for DHs bday today. Want all the cake!

Tourmalily · March 2017

I'm having turkey and stuffing! I roasted a turkey we'd had in our freezer since November. It took an entire week to thaw!!! I'm also having veggies bc veggies are important too blah blah

I made these tonight and they were awesome!

MrsBunz · March 2017

Mashed potatoes. Specifically the mashed potatoes from Popeyes. I craved them with DS, and apparently they still hit the spot.

flowerpower5838 · March 2017

I did some meal prepping yesterday so I am pretty set until we leave town Thursday night! I am really going to try and do better with my eating habits this pregnancy. I gained way too much last time and I am still holing on to 20 pounds of that weight.

Breakfasts - overnight oats and/or smoothies all prepped

Lunch - ground turkey with taco seasoning, fajita veggies, faro and salad to mix all together and also some turkey/sweet potato/spinach patties

Dinner - I have shrimp thawing for a zoodle pasta that I'll have tonight and tomorrow that's all ready to get thrown in a wok, Wednesday and Thursday we'll have a roast and side salad that I made yesterday in the crockpot.

Snacks - hardboiled eggs and apples for snacks!

@Tourmalily can we be besties?!?!?!

Knottie1448756832 · March 2017

Trying to eat more veggies. Eating a lot of pasta (gimme alllll the lasagna).

slaven · March 2017

I was suddenly craving macaroni and cheese pizza even though I've never had it. Just found a restaurant here that makes it which is surprising since we're in Korea. Guess I know where I'm going this weekend.

kschref · March 2017

@av2323 - just saw you tried the Brussels sprouts. Glad they were a hit!

Tourmalily · March 2017

@tlq0726 we can start a club! the veggies are super important club!

DuchessOfCambridge · March 2017

Today I have a hunger than cannot be fulfilled. I had a pot pie for dinner, then oreos and milk, and now I just had a salad. Really wish I had chips. I guess it's good I don't. But I'm still hungry!

ArtificialRed · March 2017

I was just hit by a crazy craving for French toast. I'm hardly immune to cravings. They happen fairly regularly. But for things I eat regularly, like chocolate or Honey Nut Cheerios. But I never eat French toast?? WHY

@DuchessOfCambridge like you, I'm super hungry today too. Off to find yet another snack, one that will hopefully distract me from French toast
