Every time I write “Waffle Wednesday” I think it sounds like “Awful Wednesday”, which I find both funny and sad for some reason. I hope it’s not really an awful day for anyone!
Last night’s movie gave me a late start this morning and I messed around on the computer for way too long before setting off on a 5 miler. Not being on a certain schedule makes me crazy. I need to just set one for myself already!
When I got back home I wanted a smoothie because it’s warm, and waffles because it’s Wednesday. So I had both!
In the blender: ice, frozen spinach (which then calls for less ice), protein powder, chia seeds and coconut milk.
I had to move this meal inside for consumption of course 
I ended up adding a dollop of almond butter to the waffles and banana. By the time I was eating it was 11am – practically lunch time! I was beyond hungry and needed staying power.
I’ve been craving bananas and this meal really satisfied every part of my taste buds and belly needs. I love that.
Oh yeah, for the peeps that asked – if you ask Ben a question for Ask a Monican he will answer on video not me (unless I decide to dress like him with a fake beard, which would be fun).

LOL, love that cartoon. I never use ice in my smoothies, I’d rather use frozen fruit. I think it is creamier and thicker that way.
I really need to start making green monsters again. It’s been way too long! I’ve never bought frozen spinach because I love spinach salads so I always have fresh!
Omgggg your smoothie looks good!! I love how you use frozen spinach too!! 🙂 Waffles are my favorite!!
That graphic is fabulous!!! And so true.
Your green monster looks delicious! And I never thought of making it with frozen spinach. I’ll have to try it!
My question for Ben- What is it like being married to the Fabulous Monica? But seriously he is awesome for picking you up from runs that is a great way to show support!
BAAA HAAAA !!! that cartoon is awesome.
great idea using frozen spinach… I like to use frozen fruit for smoothies so I don’t have to add ice 🙂
I would try to make the squirrel my pet. I love squirrels! They’re so cute!
Your green monster looks delicious! And I never thought of making it with frozen spinach. I’ll have to try it!
I celebrated Waffle Wednesday today, too! Topped mine with almond butter, sliced bananas, and sprinkled with chia seeds. Soooo good. I have it for breakfast 4 days a week practically.
Frozen spinach? You are a genius.
i’ve got two packages of frozen spinach to use up. i now know how. thanks!!
Your breakfasts always look so amazing. I am jealous.
Hahaha that cartoon is hilarious!
I love your huge goblet of green monster. I need to pick up some waffles at the g-store so I can participate in awful, I mean waffle Wednesday too. 😉
Wow. Until now, I NEVER thought to use frozen spinach in a green monster. What an awesome idea!!
