As I mentioned in my post yesterday, I am officially in 10k training mode. My runs must be more intentional now, including fewer 30-minute-just-for-fitness-run-walks. On Wednesday evening, I set out on a long run. Now, I suppose long runs are relative to the distance one is training for, but I feel a little silly calling 5.5 miles “long.” Still, having been in a 3-4 mile routine for quite a while, 5.5 miles was tougher than I’d anticipated!
As I neared the end of the run–around mile 4 or so–I began thinking about dinner. I’d planned to make a curried pork stir-fry, but with tired legs and sweat dripping off my face, all I could think about was pancakes. And eggs. And bacon. Mmm… must. run. faster…
Because I typically say no to BFD (breakfast for dinner,) Andrew was thrilled when I suggested it.
On the menu:
Eggs (hard-boiled for me, fried for Andrew)
Turkey Bacon (all natural)
Pancakes (gluten-free, dairy-free; we like Bob’s Red Mill pancake mix)
Bananas
It totally hit the spot.
Sometimes bananas and eggs upset my stomach separately, so I took a big risk eating both with this meal. Thankfully, I felt fine!
Are you a fan of BFD, or do you prefer to keep your breakfast foods in the morning?
I love to do bfd every once in awhile, reminds me of my childhood when my mom would do it cause she couldn’t think of anything else to fix. Thanks for sharing, always love your blog.
I would eat breakfast foods all day. Sometimes, I do. Haha.
