I Love Fall!

Hey Guys! I am going to pretend that Sunday didn’t exist for this post and here’s why:

• I woke up at 7 this morning
• Spin Class
• Grocery Store
• Work 1-5:30
• Shopping for work clothes
• Homework

Combine all of that together and you have one tired blogger. SO, since most of my Sunday eats weren’t that amazing anyway, let’s pretend that they didn’t happen. I will, however, share the  details of the awesome dinner I made last night at this end of this post.

I started my morning off with a bowl of Brownie Oats

What’s inside:

• 1/2 cup quick oats
• 1/2  cup light vanilla soy milk
• 1/2 cup water
• 1/8 tsp cinnamon
• 1 banana, smashed
• pinch of flax

What’s on top:

• crumbled chocolate fig vitatop
• spoonful of  raw almond butter

Ahmazing!

Since I had work from 1-5:30, I packed my lunch

• Food Should Taste Good Multigrain Chips with Sabra Hummus (in the container)
• Pomegranate Chobani
• Mcintosh Apple

Three things to say about this lunch:

1. Sabra hummus is the best hummus ever
2. I love, love, LOVE Mcintosh Apples
3. I HATED the Pomegranate Chobani (you win some, you lose some)

I had a little PB filled milk chocolate pumpkin for dessert

I couldn’t resist buying two of these guys at the Apple Fest.

Dinner was leftovers from the fabulous dinner I made last night

What’s this, you ask?

Baked Cinnamon-Sugar BBQ Chicken with Apples & Sweet Potatoes

Note: I did not use a recipe. I just threw in what I thought would taste good. Feel free to make all the changes you want!

Chicken Marinade

• 1/3 cup BBQ Sauce (I used the kind we got at the Apple Festival on Saturday)
• 1/4 tsp Granulated Brown Sugar
• Cinnamon and Black Pepper, to taste

Chicken, Sweet Potato & Apples

• 4 Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts
• 1 Mcintosh Apple, thinly sliced
• 1 Large Sweet Potato, sliced
• TBSP Packed Brown Sugar
• Cinnamon, to taste

Instructions:

1. Mix marinade ingredients together, coat chicken, and let sit in fridge for at least 30 minutes
2. Preheat oven to 350° and coat baking pan with cooking spray
3. Border the edge of pan with potato and apple slices and sprinkle with cinnamon and brown sugar
4. Add chicken to the  middle, bake covered for 20 minutes, and then uncover and bake for an additional 20 minutes

Considering I didn’t use a recipe, this dish was pretty awesome! I heated up some butternut squash on the side

And of course, last night I had a bowl of pumpkin ice cream for dessert to round out my very autumnish meal.

Tonight, I had two blocks of dark chocolate for dessert.

And that is all! My Google Reader hates me right now. I will catch up on blog reading tomorrow! Hope you understand!

What is your favorite Autumn meal?

Have a great Tuesday! <3

Update: Tuesday Night (9:44) Hey Guys! I am heading to bed after a long day of class from 10-4, studying, and dinner out with Jeff. I caught up on Google Reader though! I promise to post tomorrow!!
