After making Kristen’s Cherry Chocolate Bomb shake yesterday, I realized that I have a new (and luckily very healthy) addiction to deal with. Today as I was getting ready to make another delicious shake, I noticed that I was out of bananas which are a crucial ingredient!
I pouted for a few minutes, and then came [...]

I am loving these new multi-grain flatbreads I picked up at Costco the other day.
The pack comes with ten large flatbreads for only $3.99!
Yesterday I used them to make this quick pizza topped with mushrooms, onions, and zucchini. For the sauce, I used a drained can of diced tomatoes and spread the tomatoes around before putting [...]

Happy Friday! Hope you are having a good one so far.
I started my day off with a chocolate-peanut butter smoothie just like this one, but I added an entire banana to it this time. So creamy and chocolaty.
Lunch was a hummus and veggie wrap.
I made the wrap with garlicky hummus, Trader Joe’s artichoke antipasto, avocado, [...]

Chocolate Peanut Butter Shake
1 cup almond milk
1 Tbs natural peanut butter
1 heaping scoop Amazing Grass Chocolate Superfood (you can also use regular cocoa powder)
stevia to taste (or your favorite sweetener)

It’s about that time again to show you what I got in my CSA box this week! Earlier today I picked up this colorful box of produce from my neighborhood coordinator, Julianne.
I love all the variety this time around.
Fresh organic berries are such a treat!
I can’t wait to try this bad boy! Has anyone ever [...]

Today I decided to experiment with my favorite banana bread recipe and try to make it as close to fat-free as I could, without sacrificing flavor or texture. I am happy to say that my experiment worked and it turned out delicious! I actually ended up making two mini banana bread loaves because I never [...]

Happy Tuesday everyone! I started the day with this lovely bowl of banana oats.
The trio of toppings: a crumbled Hermit (more on these later), sunflower seed butter, and ground flax seeds. Yum, I loved this combo today.
For lunch, I had a crazy salad which was made possible by my wonderful CSA box. This was definitely [...]
Ice Cream and Oats

Earlier in the week I saw Jessica, of How Sweet It Is, add ice cream to her morning oatmeal. First I thought, that’s an interesting idea, but not something I would ordinarily do. This morning however, I found myself with a freezer stocked with vegan ice cream and decided I would have to try it. [...]

Good morning! I hope everyone got to enjoy their extra hour this weekend. I must say that I am loving the time change so far. It is SO much easier to wake up when it’s not dark outside!
For breakfast this morning, I had a filling bowl of banana oats, topped with peanut butter, and crumbled [...]

This Monday morning I needed something extra yummy to get me going, so I made this hearty bowl of banana oats:
I usually don’t eat something this decadent for breakfast, but I was craving something sweet. The scoop of chocolate peanut butter made these oats extra special. I just love the flavor combo of bananas, chocolate, [...]
