I have literally been living at the office hospital. And yet, somehow I have managed to churn out heaps of produce in the few hours I have been home. Seriously, our apartment is where produce comes to die (death by baking anyone?). Wanna see a few of my success stories (if you said no…well…tough sh!t). 😉 FINALLY!! (I think kale chips have been on my to-make list for a year now). It’s about damn time, Elise. Massaged with cooking spray, nooch, and salt (like, a LOT of salt), then baked at 350 for 10-15 minutes. … Read more >

What a short lived break. Having only one day off of work was such a tease. So back to the hospital I went. The usual crew of lunchables: salad with a lot of greenery, roasted carrots with cranz, Spiced Pumpkin Pie Clif bar (why does this have to be seasonal, it’s SO good), PB cookie Larabar (best flavor, definitely, best flavor), TWO apples (not baby horse ones, these are the big bad boys), dried pineapple and pears. Foggy bag much? By the way, I’m completely obsessed with roasting carrots into fries. I could easily go… Read more >

Lately I’ve been having such rando cravings, I feel like a preggo! (Don’t worry Mom…) I had frozen pizza just the other day, and yet, the following TWO days I had pizza as well. Seriously. Who am I? This is pretty odd considering pizza is not exactly a food I would typically associate with strong feelings of lust. Growing up, it was never a food I especially craved. As fun as pizza parties were, discovering I was lactose intolerant at such a young age severed any chance of forming the quintessential bond that most kids… Read more >

It’s been pretty cold lately, and with the change in weather comes several personal challenges. Comfort food. Why is it called that? It certainly doesn’t leave you feeling comforted. For all intents and purposes, it should be called UNcomfortable food, because of how it leaves you feeling. But then, who doesn’t crave warm foods during the cold months? Sure, there are healthy hot dishes, but soup gets old, and suddenly I find myself drawing a blank on the meal creating front and resorting to some stereotypical (aka less than healthy) alternatives. Because of this, the… Read more >

I woke up this morning and found that Kyle had left me a note. Obviously these vegan, gluten free, agave sweetened brownies satisfied my boy’s taste buds! Poor guy was at the office until the wee hours of the night (long after I went to bed), so when he got home he went to town on the remaining baked goods. Thanks to his note, I got a good laugh in as I headed off to work. Packed lunchables. Yes, TWO apples today. Honestly, I feel like I should bring in more, but my reputation on… Read more >
