Little A This

Hello from the Charlotte Dietetic Association 9th Annual Professional Day!!

I need to pay attention, but here’s breakfast!

Knowing continental breakfasts are often low in filling protein, I grabbed an Oikos on my way out the door and was able to put together a delish parfait along with some trail mix from my purse. Also brought some coffee from home! Good old Christmas blend 🙂

See you for lunch!!

this !

    your oikos looks like a work of art! I bought a HUGE bag of grapes this week — they have been so CRUNCHY and fresh – just the way I like ’em!

    Have a great day!

    Such a good idea to bring your own Greek yogurt. Honestly, I really admire you pursuing your interest in dietetics! Being in medical school, there are so many days that I wish I could do something more focused on nutrition… I’m hoping to be able to do that once I finish… til then… I’ll just read your blog! =) Have a great day!

    Wise move! I also find that continental breakfasts lack true whole grain bread products. The slices of bread are wheat, but not whole wheat. Same with bagels, muffins, etc.
    I hope you enjoyed your morning!

    I wish all the conferences I went to had so much fruit … usually it’s carbscarbscarbscarbscarbs and maybe a bowl of nasty fruit salad that’s been sitting in the fridge for days. But yeah, protein always seems to get lost.

    Yea, not much protein in sight there! What I like to do for those continental breakfasts is bring a single-serve packet of Justin’s Almond or Peanut Butter. I want to get my hands on some Barney Butter packets. Where did you get them??

    I don’t get why they don’t serve Ezekiel toast, Oikos, and MaraNatha at these things, geez! 😉

    That’s not a continental breakfast! Where’s all the sliced meat and salamis and yogurt and fruit salad and oats and cereals and lovely bread?! You do us such an injustice! It’s like people over here thinking you guys just eat waffles and pancakes for breakfast! And don’t get me started on sausages with syrup on your pancakes – how bizarre!

    You make a great point about the lack of protein at most continental breakfast layouts. Nice job on thinking to bring the yogurt, your colleagues must be jealous of your yummy breakfast! 🙂

    I need to work on more morning protien. Fixing an egg doesn’t alway happen. I can see yogurt being a good option. Plus Greek yogurt has more protien than traditional yogurt if I’m not mistaken.
