A sweets cycle

Breakfast #1 – awkwardly photographed home-made trail mix of raw almonds, raisins, carob chips, cheerios, and Three Sisters cinnamon sweets. Eaten while Kyle drove me to work at 6:20. Breakfast #2 – quinoa, shredded coconut, chopped apple, goji berries and dried cranberries. Eaten between grand rounds at 10ish. I have discovered a new way to eat quinoa that makes for an amazing breakfast…allow me to share with you. First, I add soy milk to it.  I fill it to the top like I’m adding milk to a cold cereal.  Then, I microwave it for a… Read more >

AM in the PM

Check out my dinner! Vegan waffles made from scratch :)  The recipe is so hearty and delicious (and also top secret), you may or may not recall why…but I’ll get back to that later.  For now, breakfast. I suppose this could be seen as a parfait of sorts. On the bottom: pumpkin oats with 1/2 cup pumpkin puree, 1/2 cup whole rolled oats, NuNaturals liquid stevia, and Tropical Traditions shredded coconut. On the top: vanilla greek yogurt sprinkled with cinnamon.   I managed to take a picture of my snack, too.  I pretty much eat… Read more >

Three Sisters

One, two, three. We’re a special bunch. Really. At least that’s what our parents tell us. We clearly hate each other. And hate taking photos together. Aside from our narcissism and eye color, we have some other things in common, too…such as our love for good food. This is good food. So is this. This is good food in a mug. This is good food with granola, pumpkin puree, and raw oats. This is good food with chopped apples. This is good food made into a trail mix style snack with more cereal, raisins, granola,… Read more >

Hungry Hungry Kyle

Kyle is too lazy to type up a guest post.  But ask beg and you shall receive…   Here’s a recap of his evening in the kitchen, hippie-style.  So without further ado… Candle Cafe’s Seitan Skewers with Chimichurri Citrus-Herb Sauce I found two recipes online and combined them for the marinade with the following proportions: 1 cup fresh orange juice 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice (thank you bumper crop!) 1/4 cup fresh lime juice ½ cup olive oil 1 garlic clove, minced 2 ½ tbsp vegan sugar 3/4 cup chopped parsley 1 cup chopped cilantro 1… Read more >

The most wonderful time

I know you guys don’t believe me, but working on Christmas Day is not that bad.  I mean, obviously I’d prefer to spend the morning in my PJs cozied up by the fireplace, opening presents with my family.  But don’t worry, I still made sure it was a festive day at the hospital.  After all, my patients need cheer on the 25th too.  It also helps that I happen to love my job.  And in the back of my mind I know that eventually I will be higher on the totem pole and get the… Read more >
