Here comes all what I ate Wednesday. I hope this week will turn out better/healthier than last week ;)
8:20 - For breakfast I had almost the same as last week, some porridge with 4 almonds in it, a chopped banana, some blueberries and cinnamon on top. I always try to make my first meal of the day a good one to keep the blood sugar high as long as possible.
I also had a big glass of water to take my prenatal vitamins and a can of herbal pregnancy tea.
12:20 - At lunch time I had a whole grain toastie with honey and plum marmalade. As kind of dessert I had a third of a water melon. Yum!
And of course I had a big glass of water again :)
15:20 - Coffee time!! Had my cup of coffee with one small tea spoon brown sugar and a sip soy milk. Besides I had three rice cakes thinly covered with chocolate.
And my water...
17:30 - In the late afternoon I was starving! We were out at a shopping center and I had a bread roll with fishcake, lettuce and remoulade sauce from Nordsee.
These are always tasty, but I still was hungry afterwards. :/
19:30 - Finally got my dinner at home, which was 5 potato snack thingies filled with herb cream cheese and some cucumber, tomatoes and my water!
Over the day I drank a can of 0,75 liters of tea and more than 1,5 liters of water!
Hope you enjoyed this What I ate Wednesday and if you like, leave your link to your WIAW´s below in the comments and I'll be stopping by :)

I must admit that I haven´t been eating as good during pregnancy than before. :( This fact makes me feel kind of sad, because I want the best for my little baby obviously.. but unfortunately I am much more hungry and cannot hold back myself or control me very good. :/
So I thought I would start the What I ate Wednesday again and have at least one - or even some more - good food days throughout the week! :)
8:30am - For breakfast this morning I´ve had porridge with light soy milk, 4 almonds, a chopped banana, filets of orange and sprinkled over some cinnamon.
Also had a big glass of water to take my prenatal vitamins and prepared a can of herbal tea. Normally this would be some kind of a fruit tea but for now it is a special mixed pregnancy tea containing 7 herbs.
12:45pm - For lunch I had some leftover pasta. It´s a mixture of arrabiata and bolognese sauce, because I like it spiced up! :)
I am also having a big glass of water besides.
3:00pm - Coffee break! I am having a treat of three rice cakes covered with dark chocolate and a cup of black coffee.
And again a glass of water...
6:15pm - We had dinner at subway today and I ate 2 half subs with chicken fajita and chipotle southwest sauce. The only difference was the bread, one is on parmesan-oregano and one on honey oats.
In terms of toppings/salad I never leave anything out, it´s always two slices of cheese, lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, olives, jalapeños, onions, parmesan, salt & pepper. I also had a coke zero with it and half a raspberry-cheesecake cookie as kind of a dessert.
8:30pm - Treat time! I am having a Mars ice cream right now! Yum!!!
Spread over the whole day I also drank 1,5 litres of water. I hope you liked this post although today didn´t really turn out as a super healthy day ;) Please feel free to leave your comments or links to your WIAW´s below. Have a nice and relaxing evening!

And again I am coming up with a food post! I hope you enjoy - this time I had a super yummy lasagne with spinach and salmon!
If you want to try this you just need to follow my recipe here:
- cut 2 onions into small cubes
- heat 1 table spoon of vegetable oil in a pan
- add onions together with 400gr. of spinach (unfrozen is fine) and let steam for 5 minutes
- in the meantime cut 160gr. of fresh smoked salmon slices into small squares
- then add 300ml of vegetable brooth into the pan
- open and add a tin of chunky tomatoes (400gr.) and the salmon into the pan
- add salt, pepper and thyme
- pre-heat the oven to 200°degrees celsius
- prepare 400gr. of low fat cream cheese (buko/philadelphia) in a bowl and stirr together with 1 table spoon dill, a pinch salt & pepper, 1 tea spoon of lemon juice and a bit muscat
- now start shifting into a gratin dish (21x32cm) start with spinach mass, then lasagne sheets (you´ll need 12 in total) and then the cheese mass. repeat 3 times.
- add low fat grating cheese as much as you like (I had 150gr.)
- put it in the oven for 25 minutes
It´s a little bit time consuming but it is so worth it! Spinach has a lot of good vitamins and minerals, also the salmon contains folate and omega-3 oils which are good for your heart and organs!
Did you like my recipe? Let me know if you want to try out! ;)

Here is my what I ate Wednesday!
Today I would like to share a recipe of a really easy and delicious broccoli soup.
The cooking is so simple and goes really quick. Here it goes for 2 persons as a dish or as a starter for 4 persons:
Put 500gr of broccoli in a pot, also deep-frozen broccoli is fine!
Add 300ml of freshly brewed vegetable broth and let it cook for 8mins.
To flavor use salt, white pepper and a bit of muscat.
Now puree everything to a fine soup with an immersion blender and finally stirr in 4 table spoons of crème fraîche. Et voilá!
As you can see I added some coûtons to my soup, as a change I would probably choose a whole grain roll for the next time and/or replace half the broccoli with spinach!
This dish is super healthy as broccoli and spinach contain a lot of calcium, iron and B-vitamins! Hope you enjoy experimenting, bon apétit! :)
