Sometimes it’s hard to eat clean while working full-time! Actually, it can be hard to eat clean no matter what your work schedule or lack thereof- just check out my weekend posts for evidence of this. As we all know, it’s all about the planning, but sometimes even the best plans don’t work out.
I had to work early today and didn’t have the time or energy to pack much of anything before I left the house. After my morning call was over, I headed back to the office, and stopped in at Target on the way. How does that store manage to take so much of my money when I go in for a just few things? Ugh. I digress. #firstworldproblems
I decided that in order to prevent the need for many future trips to the big red dot store, I should buy foods that can be stored in my desk at work for more days like today (and there probably will be more than I’d like to admit!). Aside from the yogurt, I think I succeeded. I’ve included a picture of my finds, my meal, and my drawer for your viewing pleasure! lol
Next time I fail to plan ahead, I can just open my desk drawer and dig in!
What I ate: Greek yogurt with dates, almond slices and vanilla. It felt very Mediterranean. Too bad it didn’t immediately transport me to the Greek Isles.
I keep an entire jar of almonds in my desk drawer, that and some peanut butter 🙂
Ohhh, the peanut butter is a good idea! I’m gonna add that to my stash! Thanks!
I have a drawer like this, except it has bees knees peanut butter, almonds, banana chips, instant oatmeal(just in case), and a few others. I like to be stocked up since im constantly munching on something or other.
Oh- I like the idea of the banana chips and oatmeal! Thanks!
No problem!! 🙂
