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, [...]

That’s right, for breakfast I had sweet potato bread and it was wonderful. Yesterday, I came across the recipe over on Nicole’s blog, and just happened to have a couple of sweet potatoes waiting to be used up. What a great breakfast bread! I used whole wheat pastry flour instead of all purpose, and the [...]

After a flight cancellation and multiple delays, I finally made it back to Miami late last night. Although I had a great time playing in the snow and getting to wear a scarf and gloves, I am glad to be home.
Here is a food recap of my last couple of days in North Carolina:
Oatmeal with [...]

Hey guys! I have been missing in action for the last few days since I’m visiting family up in Chapel Hill, NC. Of course, on the day I am supposed to leave they are predicting 8 to 12 inches of snow!
Hopefully I will be able to make it back to Miami tomorrow as planned, but in [...]

First off, I want to wish everyone a very happy New Year! I spent the first day of the year hanging out, reading magazines, and watching old episodes of LOST. Talk about a lazy day! I did get to enjoy this crazy sunset though.
A cold front rolled in mid-afternoon and brought in a lot of [...]

Good morning! I hope everyone is having a great week so far.
I just have to share my newfound love for Peanut Butter & Co’s, Cinnamon Raisin Swirl peanut butter. I was thrilled to find this on the shelf at Publix over the weekend, and bought it regardless of the pretty steep price tag. [...]

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 [...]

I eat oatmeal for breakfast almost every morning. It’s healthy, easy to make, and it tastes great. I usually make simple bowls of oats that are not neccessarily blog worthy, but these dessert-like bowls are completely worth sharing.
Today’s special treat was apple-cinnamon oats. I diced up a small apple and cooked it with the oats, [...]

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 [...]

Yesterday, I found this biscuit recipe while searching for some rolls to make for my Thanksgiving dinner. I stumbled on these biscuits from VegWeb, and decided to try them out instead.
I actually didn’t read the recipe correctly and added too much milk, but they came out great that way. Since the dough was a bit [...]
