We ran out of eggs before the end of the week but I refuse to ruin the budget by going to the store. I gave P the last two, scrambled with spinach, just like he likes them. Luckily I had one hard boiled egg left for me. I layered the slices atop avocado toast. We both had blueberries on the side. P had an entire zucchini muffin (cut into small bite sized pieces) with his eggs and blueberries. I used the same recipe as I did here only I bumped up the coconut aminos to… Read more >

I stopped taking pics of my lunches a while back because they were soooo repetitive (avo and egg salad with some kind of carb). But then we ran out of eggs and I was forced to get a little more creative. The stars of the show were these gifts from my neighbor. She has a pomegranate tree and hooked me up with 4 red beauties. There’s something therapeutic about de-seeding them. Especially when your kiddo is napping in his crib for the first time in days. [I love chest naps but they make it… Read more >

Last I left off was my birthday dinner. The next day we went to brunch at La Boulange. Mine is the salad on the right. Odd for a breakfast choice, but the taste buds wanted it. We hung around the house until my dad got home from work, then we walked to WF to grab sandos. This is the crappy iPhone shot I got. They were out of the Sonoma chik’n salad (which uses Beyond Meat), so I went with a basic vegetarian sando with the works. Vegenaise and avo together are good stuff. … 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 >

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 >
