Breakfast Udi’s mighty bagel with organic peanut butter and a fried egg. I had the second half of the bagel a couple hours later. Also with PB PB. I’m seriously obsessed with these bagels. They are so hearty and full of seeds and whole grains, you’d never know they are wheat and gluten free. Definitely the best GF baked good I’ve tried so far. What sets it apart though, is the fact that it actually tastes like a bagel. Not eggy bread. Not nutrient devoid buns. Not cardboard crap. Real ingredients! I can SEE the… Read more >

We had such awesome weather this weekend (status quo for Nor Cal, but still worth noting) so we really made the most of it. Lots of outdoor time! Friday morning started with Earth Butter-ed toast and a fried egg. <— yup, that’s a bite mark out of the toast For lunch I had a big salad with greens, quinoa, carrots, tomatoes, and peanuts with peanut soy dressing. Since I finished off the rest of the PB I just made the dressing in the jar. I broke up P and his girlfriend Sophie for… Read more >

I love salads. Old news right? I’m in a major salad phase. I crave big bowls of greens. I crave cookies too, so don’t think I’m a total freak. But yeah, I can’t get enough veggies lately. This Caesar was one of my more creative ones. For the most part, though, I just wing it. I get lots of questions about my salad combos, but the truth of the matter is I just throw everything from the crisper drawer into a bowl and top it with whatever proteins are leftover (tempeh, tofu, hard boiled eggs,… Read more >

Here’s a dirty little secret. I cover up one corner of toast in 99% of my photos because they have one bite taken out of them already. I don’t know why, but I always take a bite out of the bread before I put it in the toaster. What can I say…I’m special. Or I lack patience. Either way it doesn’t make for a nice photo, so I always manage to cover it up with another piece of food or crop it out of the photo entirely. My first breakfast is above (GF toast with… Read more >

Whenever I get a recipe out in real time it’s because it was so good I can’t not share it immediately. I basically dropped everything (except my son of course) to write this post. Now THIS is what I’m talking about! I rarely put much work into lunch. It’s my quickie meal of the day. I throw together whatever. Dinner is the meal I spend more time on, prepping and planning. But this was a very worthwhile exception. Sure it took a bit more work. But actually, not really. To me, the 90s were all… Read more >
