My Tuesday and Wednesday. For your viewing pleasure. Breakfast. Banana bread + fried egg. Decaf, decaf, decaf. Lunch. Celery, carrots, zucchini egg muffins with fresh grind peanut butter.

Cultive mix of banana & white chocolate fro-yo topped with slivered almonds, shredded coconut, blueberries, and raspberries. Dinner. Thai Peanut Zucchini Noodle Fry. Check out the squash from my coworkers’ garden! I also scored some medjool dates and oranges from her. The cherry tomatoes are from… Read more >

A few weeks ago, I had this big ’ol squash just burning a hole in my pocket (countertop?). I love how everyone seems to have the “problem” of an abundance of zucchini during the summer months…I bet google’s search for zucchini recipes is at an all time high right now. I don’t have any growing in my own garden, but Kyle’s work shop is basically a warehouse surrounded by a bunch of farm land so it’s pretty much my personal U-pick right now. Since Kyle hates zucchini (weirdo) it was especially nice of him to… Read more >

I worked nights this weekend and only got 2 hours of sleep while home during the day, so I make no promises on the clarity or content that follows… I have no idea when I made or ate this lunch bowl. I don’t even know what day it is. It had Beyond Meat southwest strips, carrots, and avocado. A really simple chop salad – if you can even call it that! I’m still loving Beyond Meat. The southwest flavor isn’t too strong (I was worried it would only be good for a Mexican themed meal,… Read more >

I love browsing the raw section of the Co-op but it’s also semi-depressing because I refuse to spend $9 on a bag of coconut macaroons that I will finish off in one sitting (why fight the truth) and could just as easily make myself.

Last weekend’s (eek, super delayed post, this is from 2 weekends ago!!) al fresco was indoors because IT. IS. SO. HOT. I pretend like I’m upset about this, but in reality, my complaints are all big fat lies. I love the sun. Summer months are the sh!t. But maybe I should back up. I actually took pics of the whole day’s eats. Well, almost. I had banana bread with two eggs for breakfast. We went to the co-op and the farmer’s market for grocery shopping, followed by a lunch date at Crepeville. I… Read more >
