This week is all about eating, not running so I should share some of that fun, right?!
Okay, well there was a tiny bit of running. I started the day with a little run. Yeah, my knee is a little creaky so I’m going to take the rest of the week off for rest. An ounce of prevention, right?!
Breakfast! Eggs and oatmeal. Trying to get back to some clean eating – bathing suit season is coming. Crap.
And I’ve been snacking on fruit. Because I love it.
Now I have to thank StuftMama for this plantain bread idea. She brought it to eat before the LA Marathon and shared it with me. It’s surprisingly good for only having 3 ingredients! This is very similar to the 2 ingredient pancake everyone makes so I’m thinking it would work on the stove too.
All you need is love…
and plantains and eggs.

Greta @ fueledbyfresh says
Yum! I’m always looking for new things to do with bananas to incorporate them into baking because my stomach won’t handle them by uncooked. Total bummer but I love bananas in cookies, breads, pancakes and the like! I’m excited to try this one!
Heather @ Run Eat Play says
I have never had a plantain, but I’m not really a banana fan either. I’m snacking on watermelon today. I bought a container of it yesterday and I’m sure it’ll be gone by today!!

Hummas and carrots. I also have watermelon!

Plantain bread looks fantastic! I am definitely going to try it! I got my Nature Box in yesterday, so I snacked on Sriracha Cashews yesterday. Fantastic invention!! Sweetness of the cashews goes great with the spice of sriracha!

It’s watermelon season so of course I’m snacking on some watermelon or 5 depending on if you count the whole week. And I make no apologies, watermelon is awesome.

Interesting use of plantains. I’m snacking on fig bars this morning.

THAT IS AWESOME!!! I will be trying that asap. Thanks!
Rachel @ Marathon Running Medic says
Hopefully, I will snack on fresh strawberries and bananas instead of succumbing to my PMS-driven desire for nonstop chocolate! 🙂 I’ve always been kind of scared to try plantains… I’m not sure why they aren’t bananas.
