Hummus, Tomatoes & Carrots Oh My...

I promised myself when I started eating healthy I would branch out & try new things & I did just that this week. I picked up some Spinach & Feta Hummus the other day along with some Pita bread(I read somewhere you out Hummus on it). Well I did just that & I gotta say there really is no taste to it. I am not going to throw it away cause its still fairly full I am going to look for some recipes to see if any call for hummus to see what else I can do with it if any of you have any ideas let me know. I also picked up some cherry tomatoes & some baby carrots. As a kid I liked tomatoes but as an adult I couldn't stand them but they I decided to give them a try again. I picked up some cherry ones since they are so small you can be done with them fairly quickly. I put them in with a salad I had the other night & I have to say it tasted pretty good. While we are on the topic of salad I know vinaigrette's are better for you then the other dressing but I just can't eat them I don't know if its because I feel like I am eating grease or something but my dressing of choice at this time is Thousand Island.


Of course along with eating healthy you have to drink good stuff. I am loving the Crystal Light to go packets alot I use them even when I am at home too. Earlier this week I came across some drinks that are organic they were only $ 1.00 at the time so I figured why the heck not The company is called Honest Beverages. Now what I am about to say may or may not make sense but I hope it does these drinks aren't nasty but they aren't the best thing I have ever tasted I feel like they are missing some taste. The bottle says a tad sweet I don't know if that does it any justice because I don't really taste anything sweet maybe its just my taste buds or something. I am not going to say I will never drink them again but I may try some of the other flavors they have.

I have only been doing this healthy eating for about a week & a half which probably isn't long enough to see any changes but there is one place I notice a difference. Its in my sleeping I notice I sleep better at night more soundly and longer I don't wake up & have a hard time going back to sleep & when I get up I am not yawning & wanting to crawl back into bed only after a few hours of being up. I guess eating healthy, popping some vitamins & having breakfast does help doesn't it.
