The 1 WWP Bagel that TASTES like a bagel!

Happy Friday to me and you!!! LOL. I started off my day with the best news ever ~ I WON ANOTHER COOKBOOK!!!! Yahoo ~ I love that you all help me feed my cookbook addiction. Jenn at Eating Bender hosted a giveaway for PETA's new VEGAN College Cookbook and I won! I am definitely playing Lotto and buying scratchers tonight.

So, here is the funny party. The Husband thinks I have too many cookbooks and I should trade out an old one for each new one I get. Well, can you believe he told me to actually keep this one and it isn't about steak?!? LOL. Oh and I don't have to give any others away - yahoo!

Ok, I'll get onto breakfast since I know you are all wondering about the 1 WWP bagel I had today. I am a HUGE fan of Western Alternative Bagels - they are fairly clean and you get an entire bagel for 110 calories. I have tried 3 of the 4 flavors (Sweet Wheat, Cinnamon Spice, Roasted Onion). I would LOVE to be able to find and buy the blueberry. Each flavor actually TASTES like a real bagel and not all healthy like the "lite" breads do.

This morning I toasted up my bagel and topped one half with 1 Tbsp organic crunchy pb:

And the other half with 1 Tbsp all natural juice sweetened Apricot Preserves:

Along with this I made up a quick smoothie.

1/2 c ff greek yogurt
1 c ff milk
1/4 c strawberries
1/2 small banana
ice

Yesterday when I was running errands, I stopped at Starbuck's and got a Venti Iced Tea. I was all too excited when I saw that they finally came out with an environmentally friendly container for their cold, iced beverages - check it out! I am definitely getting one of these.

  2. Oh hubby, a girl can NEVER have too many cookbooks -lol! Congrats on the win!

    I LOVE Western Alt. Bagels! I used to be able to find them in my local Giant and now they no longer carry them :( I really miss them. Guess I gotta order online. You're right, they really do taste like a regular bagel!

    Funny, saw those containers today @ Starbucks when I was getting my Mocha Light Frap. It's become an addiction now :(

  8. Janetha ~ ME too! How awesome would it be if they had ALL the bagel flavors.....

    Marissa ~ I absolutely agree - it's sort of like him collecting tools, right?! LOL. I was able to find these at Super Walmart - so maybe you could try there?

    Missy ~ Absolutely! Plus it's Friday so you earned a Starbucks all week!

    Anne ~ I agree and I LOVED how they included the straw and look like the real deal.

    Heather ~ I LOVE Starbuck's too. I used to get one daily, but, I've reeled myself in a bit :) There are a ton of healthy options. Thanks for the add, I need to make sure you are on mine too :)

    Caitlin ~ Seriously, you do! I just gave you a project for the weekend!

    Jenny ~ I found them at Super Walmart in the fridge section. I know you can order them online too. Whereever you look, check the fridge and freezer sections because they are not stored with the regular bread. Good luck!
