Top two complaints about being veg are (a) the price tag and (b) the time.* This meal cost two dollars. And that expense includes both bowls plus [un-pictured] second helpings. Balanced, whole foods based, with all the macronutrients represented. And it took 10 minutes to make. All you need is corn meal + eggs + avocado [all organic!]. Simple enough right? Jazz it up as you want afterwards, but this basic combo will do your appetite and your wallet just fine. Green Eggs & Cornmeal Ingredients: 1 1/2 cup… Read more >

I’ve come to the conclusion that it’s impossible to make crock-pot meals look appetizing. The night before photo looks like tomato and almond milk soup. Gross. The next morning photo looks like old crusty cornbread. Double gross. What it actually had was: 1 cup corn meal 2 1/2 cups water 1 cup plain almond milk 10 cherry tomatoes (I punctured them with a knife before hand) 1 tbsp grain mustard 1 tsp fresh parsley, chopped pinch salt Started at midnight…6 hours later…I was still asleep…but it was ready for Kyle. That’s why half… Read more >

After a really exhausting day, we were all ready for an early dinner. I’m talking 5 pm early. And so we made our way to Founding Farmers. This place was recommended to me by a few different people, so I was really looking forward to it. Unfortunately, I had a less than great interaction with the staff when I called ahead inquiring about the ability to accommodate our party of five (including one person in a wheelchair). Not only did they tell me they don’t take reservations (which I later found out was false –… Read more >

1. What’s the breakfast I’ll never get sick of? Oatmeal. Because no two bowls are the same. Ever. I’m in a ’smores phase at the moment thanks to these home-made marshmallows. Some of my latest combos have included peanut butter, marshmallows, cinnamon, raisins, bananas, and carob chips. Many of my co-workers (among others) think oats are too “healthy” to be good and too boring to repeat. To me, that means they aren’t thinking outside the box. 2. Why is My Cousin Vinny so amazing? Grits Think about it. It’s a savory… Read more >

Work food. I didn’t take photos of my breakfast oats because they’re monotonous and (quite frankly) snooze-inducing at this point. Can I get a virtual high five for weaning myself down to ZERO pieces of gum?! Heyooo! More on that on my FODMAPs site. Post-work food. Herbed bread twists made from scratch [vegan]. They are like little pillows of carbohydrate heaven. Brown rice & veggie quiche [vegetarian, gluten free]. A twist on this recipe. Mac ‘n Cheese [vegan]. I added in spinach because green-less meals make me sad. Do you plan dinner before… Read more >
