For no intentional reason, I’ve broken away from oats this past week. Brown rice + bananas + blueberries + no-grain-ola + almond milk. Not that you need a play-by-play, but here’s the deal. I made a massive amount of brown rice (in the rice cooker), but day old rice needs a little moisture. So I re-heated it in the microwave with almond milk. Then I added some frozen bloobs, which quickly thawed once they met the warm rice. Plus bananas. And finally, I topped it off with a bunch of nutty granola…. Read more >

So my latest hobby is going on long walks while listening to the Nerdist podcasts. I am in love with any guests that are funny, but bonus points go to people from The Office, Mad Men, or The League (aka the best shows on tv netflix). If they could get Tina Fey (and/or Alec Baldwin) on the show my life would be complete. I’m a nerd. In other news. I recently conducted my own almond milk-off between my all time fave Blue Diamond’s Almond Breeze and Silk’s (new) unsweetened vanilla almond milk. Silk previously… Read more >

Not meatballs. I should have made a bigger batch of these coconut macaroon things because Kyle ate half of them before I even tried one. Work food. Banana. Carrots. Macaroons. It would probably blow your mind to know how many carrots we go through in our little hippie household. I eat half a pound a day, minimum. If our fridge were bigger it would be packed with orange. As it is, we have one crisper drawer solely devoted to those two pound bags (plural). Almond milk is another thing we seem to restock at… Read more >

How about one photo for each meal? Crock-pot spiced brown rice with almond butter. In an effort to bring some variety to my oat routine (the horror!!) I made brown rice this week. The crock-pot is just as easy because I leave it to cook on low overnight and wake up to warm whole grain perfection. Kale salad with seitan. No explanation necessary. These two foods will never cease to amaze me. The Cookie Department Great Full (vegan) cookie. You would never ever know this cookie has sweet potatoes in it. It was soooo good. … Read more >

Maybe it’s because I’m a nut job myself. Or maybe it’s because I prefer things that are based on formulas and bound by rules. But whatever the reason, I have a very hard time with crazy people.* *I’m using this term in the clinical sense. I truly think psych nurses are 10% human and 90% saints. I don’t know how they do it. In case you couldn’t guess, there have been some real characters in the hospital lately. Anyway. I’m so behind in posting my work meals, I’m just gonna photo bomb you all and… Read more >
