Would love the theme of ‘What I Ate Wednesday’ to be relevant to me here in Sydney…
But it is not. However, since today was a beautiful sunny Winter Wednesday my pics may just fool you into thinking it was Summer..
Breakfast in the sun; an egg on toast with some spinach, tomato and mushroom on the side. I did the veggies in a pan with a touch of olive oil spray and some cracked black pepper. Check out how I made my egg in the microwave.. completely fuss free!
I had the day off work today, so spent it with my sister who has just returned from her travels. We decided to have a relaxing day at home, then took a nice brisk 3 km walk to get lunch.
Lunch was enjoyed at our favourite sushi joint, Tenka. I had my normal tuna and avocado roll (With ginger, wasabi and soy sauce on the side).
We picked up some delicious dried mango from the fruit shop to energise our walk back home. Can not get enough of this stuff! Would have preferred fresh, but at $5 a mango, I’ll settle for this!
Dinner was salmon, greek salad and roast veggies. Standard, once-a-week fish dinner, and always a hit at my house!
Deliciously sweet oranges and bananas, peppermint tea and Olympics on the couch to finish off the evening..
Have you been watching the Olympics?
Whats a once-a-week standard dinner @ your place?
Thanks Jenn from Peas and Crayons for hosting WIAW… Can’t wait to check out what everyone else has enjoy today!

Looks are deceiving- It totally looks like summer! Our once a week standard is burrito night.
Yum love burrito night!
Fruit is always so yummy, I haven’t been having as much lately and miss it terribly!
It is a great natural snack but can be a bit pricey these days!
My hubby and I were up late last night watching the Woman’s gymnastic and the swimming events. At least once a week, we are going to have huge salads for dinner – the protein might change from week to week – but the other components are standard.
Salads are so versatile and easy to mix up so you don’t get bored 🙂
Great pics! Holy $5 a mango, that’s crazy.
I love having oranges for dessert during the week, I think my grandma got me hooked on that.
Fish tacos are a total staple each week!
That’s the price you pay for out of season fruit where I am! Fish tacos sound good. I have never had that combo before will have to try it out 🙂 what fish do you use?
Of course I’ve been watching the Olympics! One of the guys who was my swim coach when I was little won a gold medal 😀 and the once-a-week (or more) staple for me is pasta 😀
How awesome is that!
and now i want sushi. YUM.
Mmm I can always do with food sushi!
I loved how summery it looked yesterday – crazy 😀
Delicious eats!
Cheers

It was a beautiful day!
I can’t wait to try making eggs in the microwave! Genius!
The best hidden secret!
I definitely would’ve thought by the looks of your breakfast that it was summer (Oh & if my hubs cousins didn’t live in aus. too haha). Your whole day sounds like it was absolutely wonderful. Our once a week standard is usually pizza.
Have a wonderful day girl!
Ha ha! I love homemade pizza! Delcious, easy to prepare and healthy dinner idea.
Exactly!… well except the hubs always seems to find a way to make “his” pizza unhealthy. Boys!
Dried mango is of one my favorites! Dried pineapple is just as tasty :), have you tried it?
No! Will have to give it a try.. love fresh pineapple so dried couldn’t be too bad, ay?
You totally reminded me that I should microwave my eggs more often! So quick and easy!
Been loving the Olympics! Pretty much the only thing that has been on in my apartment since they started. I already know what happened in gymnastics, but still can’t wait to watch tonight!!!
Love, love, love watching the gymnastics!! They are amazing!
I’ve been slacking on my Olympics watching lol
Just letting you know I nominated you for an award, you can check it out here, (it’s been going around lol) http://rachrachbobach.wordpress.com/2012/08/03/liebster-blog/
Yay!!! Thanks Rachel 😀
I LOVE dried mango! I think it’s my fave dried fruit.
And I’m a totaly microwaved eggs addict – like several times a week!
Yeh dried mango totally rules! Perfect sweet treat. And microwaved eggs get the tick for easiest to prepare protein!
i LOVE breakfast outside. the veggies with breakfast sound great, too. i never really thought about pairing a regular side dish with breakfast, until i had it in mexico. that might have been one of the unhealthiest foodie trips ever, but the “petite grilled vegetables” with my breakfast were adorable.
Mmmm sounds good 🙂
