Dinner tonight was another awesome spelt wrap! I think this was my favourite wrap combo yet!! I think Eric was getting annoyed because I kept repeating how good it was. LOL
Contents:
- Homemade Organic Spelt Wrap
- Sweet potato (leftovers from the perogies)
- 1/2 avocado
- 1.5 red pepper, sauteed
- 1 slice Tofurkey
- 1/2 Tbsp. Kraft Light Balsamic Vinagrette
- Black pepper
The combo of sweet pepper and avocado was OUT OF THIS WORLD good. I’ve never had them together before and I will certainly be pairing this awesome duo again!
A sweet dessert:
I was still quite hungry after dinner so I had 3/4 cup of Spelt cereal, a banana, and soy milk. I also had one of my delicious Glo Banana Bars:
So so so good!!! Better than the Banana Bread Larabar in my opinion. :D
Afternoon snacks included:
- handful raw almonds
- 1.5 servings of Amy Organic Crackers
- 1/2 Larabar (the other hald from this morning)

If you can believe it I am STILL working on the office! I have so much left to do.
Here are the before pictures:
How did it get this bad!?
Somewhere along the line of Oh She Glows, moving in, and Glo Bakery this office was struck by a tornado!
With TLC’s What Not To Wear on- Friday nights at 9pm EST baby!
I truly believe that a neat and tidy space…is a productive and peaceful space. So it is time to organize with a capital O! Who is with me!? lol.
Stay tuned tomorrow for progress pictures :) And what I am doing to organize and make our office (we share this space- I am beside the TV and Eric is at the desk closest to the door).
I will also be giving a recap of my Crap Free Week….what changes did I see? Was I able to do it??
Rumour on the street has it that cutie pie Katie is holding an awesome Jocolat giveaway! Go now…hurry!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Have a great night everyone! Can’t wait to read your contest comments! :)
I love your green monsters and all your healthy living tips!
I have definitely started thinking a lot more about my body in terms of what it can rather than how it looks. As you’ve said, of course one of the reasons we work out is to look good but lately I’ve been realizing that’s just one of MANY reasons I/we workout and eat right. For me, that’s definitely a new way of approaching my body and its health.
Great Contest! Your wrap looks great :)
I love your blog, it has inspired me to prepare more homemade foods (hummus & wraps I have tried so far)
Lara bars and Peanut butter are still on my list to try!
Your creativity is contagious!
Jen
I love Oh She Glows! You are FULL of amazing ideas and I tried my first-ever green smoothie because of you :) You have a gift for blogging that shows in each and every one of your posts. I know that there are only wonderful opportunities in your future.
I also am loving the crap-free posts – so inspiring!
Thanks for the awesome giveaway – I will definitely link back to you on my next post!
Your Glo banana bars are also FABULOUS :) Have a great night!
I love Oh She Glows! It is actually the first food blog I stumbled across a mere 10 days ago. Since then, I have made major changes in my diet. Up until 10 days ago, I counted calories, counted points and watched everything I ate. I often consumed processed foods that were low in calories and fat, but not filling or healthy. I was then binge eating at night. Since coming across this blog, I have been eating whole, natural foods. I made my own spelt wraps and have attempted to eat as naturally as possible. I have been inspired to not only stop counting and start eating until I am satisfied, but I also started my own blog to inspire people like you have inspired me! Thank you so much for everything :)
I love your views on body image and I love your green smoothies even more! I recently started creating some of my own and I think I could drink them three times a day! Your blog is amazing..thank you!
Wow, that wrap does look delicious. Honestly, I think it’s the avocado that makes any wrap/sandwich better in everyway!
exciting!! I would love that vid. Seriously, your website is a joy to read every day. And I am NOT just saying that for the JM video :D You are so inspiring..and your continuous reminders to be patient, love myself, be at peace, and enjoy life and love do not go unnoticed every day. And of course you intro’d me to sketchie..who I LOVE :D
Such a great giveaway! I told you before and I will stick by it that I love your blog for the simple fact I feel like I’m listening to a good friend chat over lunch with me. You say what you feel, are honest and a beautiful person inside and out!!!!
And I linked back:-)
Great giveaway!!! I want it!
I love your blog because while you’re knowledgeable about lots of different things, you’re very normal and not condescending…oh, and you post amazing pictures!
Im posting the link back now :)
COUNT ME IN! I just started reading Jillian Michaels book “Making the Cut” I love her!!!
Your blog was one of the first ones I started to read and has honestly changed my life. You are so inspirational and gave me the motivation to change my eating habits and focus more on healthy eating vs. counting calories. THANK YOU!
I will put a link up on my blog for your contest as well :)
How cool!
In the short time i’ve been reading, I’ve learned that it is okay and a great thing to take care of myself, to make a point to be happy every day no matter what, and to enjoy everything :)
Even Green Monsters – which I am *hoping* to try soon :)
I like that you are an all encompassing healthy living blogger…body mind and soul!
I love your blog, not only because you are always open and honest, but also because you share multiple facets of your life and how you keep a good, healthy balance. You are such an inspiration to us all!
I love how creative you are, always trying to make your own versions of things that cost a lot of money to purchase at the store. You are proving it’s possible to save money AND eat healthfully. Your blog is great!
great giveaway, you’ve had good things to say about it :)
i love your healthy lifestyle, you’ve got it all goin’ on, and i smile reading everyday!
I love how you incorporate so many different topics into your blog—health, beauty, fashion, food, etc. I really enjoy reading it everyday!!
I’ve been inspired by so many posts… Great recipes (tortillas, homemade larabars) and talking about your journey towards wellness. Keep up the great work!
I’ve been looking to buy this DVD, but it would be great to win! I love reading about all the things you bake…now I just need to get in the kitchen and try them!
just decided i need to get this dvd after the ab challenge i ran on my blog, it works!
i’m learning all kinds of yummy food ideas from you and that will help me get healthier
i love workout dvd’s but i only have 2 beginner yoga ones and am looking for a more full-body one like jillians!!
from oh she glows i have learned a LOT. first off, i love the green monster smoothies and have become a lot less intimidated to make them since i see them here so much :D also, i’ve learned ways to calm my anxiety through your tips and tricks such as looking back at old photos (i love yours from your honeymoon!), and lastly it’s helped me learn that being ‘skinny’ like you are means being happy and healthy.. not restrictive and regimented!
I have got to try those spelt wraps! You keep flashing all of these delicious photos, I must work them into the menu.
Oh She Glows has impacted my life through posts about fitness, health, fashion, and just having an overall healthy and happy attitude towards life. You have demonstrated how to get through life’s tough times (freshman 15, injuries, etc.) while still maintaining a healthy lifestyle and positive outlook. Thanks Angela!
I just love What Not To Wear…good luck with all of your new ventures!

Your blog inspires me to eat healthy and nourish my body with GOOD food ;] thank you!
I’ve also linked back!! thanks for the awesome giveaway!!!!
Love the blog! You have helped me with the tips to stop over eating/bingeing. Thank you!
YAY for JM!! :)
Your blog is something to look forward to every day – for funny stories, beautiful quotes, model-esque photos and most of all clean eating and exercise inspiration.
Amazing! :)
I really like how you talk about other interests like fashion, or other areas of your life, like remodeling or finances. It shows there’s so much more to a food/healthy living blogger than food. I also think I like reading about “married life” from younger bloggers who have husbands and seeing how it compares to my “living in sin for now” (I call it that with love :-) ) relationship. I hope that makes sense…
I really enjoy hearing about your approach to healthy eating. And I would have never thought about adding veggies to a smoothie! Awesome site!
Oh She Glows has helped me keep in touch (even if its not directly) with one of my best friends!
Not only that, I love seeing a glimpse of your life even when i’m overseas!
You’ve got so many good ideas for baking & cooking – two of my favourite things to do!
I JUST started reading your blog this week and already it has inspired me so much. My grocery list has already been switched up. I’m planning on baking some of your recipes this afternoon and getting a blender so I can start to make green monsters. This is a great community for healthy living inspiration – I’m so glad I found it. Thank you and keep it up!
how has this blog changed my life…? You introduced me to kale!!! yumyumyum :)
Well…where to begin….
lets list shall we:
1) great recipes
2) awesome advice for eating healthy
3) green monsters…delicious.
4) knowing that someone else lost the weight the healthy way and that it is possible.
5) happiness when reading.
yep. those are mine. your site is very positive and its a great place to get ideas and very inspiring.
Awesome giveaway! I love your blog because it is honest, uplifting, and motivational! Keep up the great work! :)
I love this giveaway!! This blog is one of my favorites. I love that it’s not all about food or workouts. I love the different aspects of your life like the bakery and getting a new house. Your cute kitty doesn’t hurt! :)
This blog has helped me stay positive. I see how you’re dealing with so much to do and instead of being stressed, you are just truckin’ through it.
your blog has shown me that i can make some simple and healthy recipes of all the foods i love. like your spelt raps and “larabars”. so inspired!
Well I have definitely learned alot about simplicity from reading your blog. You have so much great information and tips to give out that I couldn’t just name one thing that is great about this blog. I especially love the creative steps you take to cut back on the bills such as making your own larabars!
Keep up the good work! It’s great!
Well, I haven’t been reading your blog for very long at all, but it is very inspiring and though I don’t know you very well I can tell you are a very sweet and helpful person and that is very inspiring : )
(the wrap looks very good, btw!! : ) And hope you have a GREAT weekend!!
It’s your wonderful personality that makes this blog! Always upbeat and seeing the good in everyday situations. Plus I love that you include such variety in your posts.
You are always so positive and your blog has inspired me to look on the bright side in every situation.
Your pictures have also inspired me to convince my husband that we need a Mediterranean vacation!!
Hi Angela –
I’m fairly new to reading your blog. I was getting really close to signing off from reading blogs all together – what I’ve seen lately is such a black hole of negativity. The anonimity of it, I think, is what allows people to spew so much… blech. Anyway, needless to say, your blog is the exact opposite and I love you for it. Now I visit at least twice a day and always looks forward to whatever you have to say – I love your outlook on life. Thanks! Penelope
Hmm, what I like best about your blog is the great ideas you have for making meals- I now eat almond butter, Amy’s cali veggie burgers (yum!) and I’m even thinking about making a green monster! Sketchie’s pretty cute too :)
You give me a little more bengal in my life! And I love your money saving recipes!
I linked to your contest.
i have been wanting to try that workout dvd ever since you said how sore you were from it the first time!
i have enjoyed oh she glows bc you seem so easy to relate to. you have answered questions i have asked before and it didnt take 10 years to hear back from you, you just seem to really care about your readers and others’ well being. besides that, you inspire me to listen to my body, to enjoy food even if its considered “junk” food sometimes. i love that you still cook yummy desserts and you have discussed different topics like stuff from college and binge eating, because as a college student I can relate to that.
Great giveaway! Thanks so much for the opportunity.
OhSheGlows has impacted me in many ways I think but the most is probably making my own foods instead of buying them, like hummus and tortillas! Next on the list is nut butters :)
OhSheGlows has inspired me to exercise more frequently. Hearing about your workouts makes me want to move / do more. Thanks for the inspiration!
I really love you tallying what you buy and showing pictures of what you eat– it really is motivational. I am now going to buy a blender and make my own green monsters– something I never would have done were it not for being inspired by you!!!!
I love the original recipies and smoothies! I started making my own for breakfast in the morning. I also love reading the inspirational posts and beauty reviews, they add a lot to your blog, not just this is what I ate and pictures, it makes the blog stand out from the others.
Your blog has shown me I can actually eat meals and snacks in a healthy way!
