Another Friday, another linkup!  Thanks to our amazing hostesses: the DC Trifecta Bloggers (Courtney from Eat Pray Run DC, Mar from Mar on the Run, and Cynthia from You Signed Up For What?!)


 This Friday's theme is Free so I decided to combine my typical Friday grocery post with the linkup. I am obsessed with grocery shopping-it is seriously the highlight of my Friday every week.  

So You can see below all that I bought but in the meantime, here are the 5 things I am most excited about to cook this week!

1. Blueberry Vans Waffles
Yall, they are gluten free! I tried the plain ones this week (as a carbloading strategy) and my body has reacted amazingly. I am OBSESSED! I plan on using them as breakfast options for carbloading (recipe coming next week) so imagine my surprise when I found blueberry flavored ones! Can't wait to try these! 

2. Eggplant
So I have never cooked an eggplant so I decided that this week I am going to be adventurous and try and make a gluten free version of eggplant parmigiana since I have a jar of tomato sauce I need to finish up. 

3. Tomatoes
I am in the process right now of roasting the tomatoes to make a creamy tomato soup. I love carbloading with grilled cheese and tomato soup!

4. Honey Almond Granola
It's also gluten free. I bought a bag last week to test how I liked it and I loved it! You can't 

5. Vega 
The blogosphere loves Vega but before I splurge on it, I decided to spend a bit and grab a sample. I am going to try it at some point this weekend. 
I also bought a bar that I ate in the car on the way home and I enjoyed it but it was a bit expensive (1.99 for a bar) so I would probably only buy them if they are on sale.
