Turns out I eat a lot. 🙂 Ha. As if that’s a surprise. Here’s my 99% complete documented eats (second helpings noted). Breakfast: fried egg + 2 slices of chocolate cherry quickbread (half of one was eaten during the cooking process) Lunch: 3 slices of GF bread toasted and topped with avocado/egg salad + carrots + grapes + strawberries I get questions if I eat fruit (because I rarely show those little snacks) and the answer is YES! Of course! I tend to eat seasonally – so lately it’s been grapes, figs, strawberries, raspberries, and… Read more >

I’ve been aggressively snacking between meals and all the nibbles are going undocumented. This bothers me because I want to have a better handle on my eats. I get frustrated because I don’t always have time to eat well so (excuses excuses) I just grab the easiest and fastest thing and shove it down my gullet between diaper changes, laundry, and all that jazz (the joys of motherhood I guess). But I want to be accountable for what I’m putting in my body. I used to take photos of everything I ate and that not… Read more >

I am bad about taking pics of my daily eats (like I used to) but I get requests for them more than the “real” recipes…so here are bunch of the quickie things I throw together on the regular. From last week… Millet with sautĂ©ed spinach, baked tofu & avocado I made the millet in the rice cooker, sautĂ©ed the spinach with sesame oil and tamari, and used Wildwood tofu. I made extras. I also re-made this salmon pasta, but in a HUUUUGE vat. Lots of veggies to use up? Throw them in! I… Read more >

Parties all around this weekend! And lots of driving to get to them all! This was the only thing I took a picture of on Thursday. Clearly it was the highlight of my eating day (the highlight in the non-food realm was Peyton Manning scoring a million points for my fantasy team). Dove dark chocolate is crazy good. My mom gave us two bars as a part of a wedding anniversary present and I had been saving them…for what I don’t know. I wasn’t expecting to love it as much as I did though. … Read more >

Quick meals these days! My philosophy: Throw something on toast or a bed of lettuce and call it a day. [The Essential Baking Co] GF toast with avocado and goat cheese. GF toast with almond butter and a fried egg. GF toast with goat cheese and smoked salmon and balsamic glaze (carrots and grapes on the side). GF toast with goat cheese and eggplant “bacon” Had this a few times…topped with fried eggs to make it extra snazzy. And now for the salads… Spinach, tomato, carrots, avocado, and (lots of) hemp seeds…. Read more >
