I got a phone call from my brother on Thursday night. Odd, I know. Anyways he was going to be coming to through town this weekend and was asking me where I was goign to take him for breakfast. I was pretty excited and decided that I would have to make this a great breakfast since I do have a hard time giving up my, Saturday morning tradition of pancakes and having a delicious breakfast so...Hy-Vee was on the top of my list. ( we would frequently go and have Hy-Vee breakfast as a family) Then the even better news came that my cousin was coming with my brother! Yay, two of my favorite guys, to eat my favorite meal with. Can it get much better?!?!Then...the dreaded text came on Saturday morning, plans had changed they were running late and thus our breakfast date had to be postponed. I masked the pain of not seeing my family with a plate of pumpkin pancakes drenched in syrup.( Not too painful, just went on with a normal Saturday and I do love those pancakes!) However, the classic sit-down Hy-Vee meal was still on my brain. Thus my 10 our of 10 supper. That is right out of all the fancy places I could go to, I went to Hy-Vee for the unlimited Fruit and Salad bar!! It is cheaper to do the one plate but I had waited long enough and no...I did not feel like a fatty getting the unlimited rather than the one plate...its fruit and lettuce salad!
It was so amazing, fresh pineapple, strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, with some yogurt and granola it was a heaping plate of parfait. Mixed with a lettuce salad with all the fixings= perfect. Not to mention there was some pretty good people watching. I think I made the most of my half hour break. :) If your Hy-Vee has a buffet fruit and salad bar, DO IT!!! Best light/ satisfying meal away from home ever!!!!
My shopping has also started to include more fruit! You know what that means. Time to shed the winter pounds that is right spring is here. Cheaper fruit prices!!!!
