What I'm eating these days

Although I try to eat a varied diet, two out of three meals every weekday are fairly fixed.  Breakfast and lunch have a largely fixed format, with the sole variety introduced through the rotation of side fruits.  When I really stop to think about it, variety is in my diet almost exclusively comes in through the dinners I eat each night.  Even then, dinners are predominantly selected from a short list of go-to weeknight meals (pasta, meat w/potatoes, or beans and rice, and tacos).

These days for breakfast,

• Yogurt, preferably Chobani's passion fruit flavor, if the grocery had them stocked that w
• A buttered bagel, usually from Bruegger's (local) or even better one of a frozen stockpile brought home from Stew Leonard's
• Oatmeal, usually Market Basket's generic raisin and spice
• Fruit, usually grapes, grapefuit, or papaya.  This morning I had blackberries and a prickly pear.
• Although it's getting a bit too warm for it, a winter staple is definitely a cup of Ghiardelli's Double Chocolate Hot Chocolate, topped off with whipped cream and dusted with Penzy's pumpkin pie spice

These days for lunch,

• A sandwich, typically cheese (Swiss or Muenster, 1-2 slices) and meat (ham or chicken, sometimes Trader Joe's pastrami, 4-6 slices)
• 2-3 pieces of fruit (oranges, in winter, apples of figs in fall, peaches or watermelon in summer, today an orange and a pear)
• These days, dessert has been two Quaker's Chocolate Crunch Rice Cakes
