Going into the weekend I had all my meals ready to go. Starting with Thursday night, I made a typical hippie bowl. If I had to choose a combination of ingredients to eat forevermore it would probably be these: quinoa, carrots, corn, seitan, avocado I recently got a question about the ratio of grain to veg to protein in my “hippie bowl” type meals. In all honesty, I don’t consciously compose them with a specific ratio in mind, but if I had to guess I’d say it is pretty much 1:1:1. Sometimes… Read more >

I think there’s a misconception about how I eat. For every new recipe I create and share with you guys, there are five others I don’t show because they look like this… Oatmeal with melty peanut butter, cinnamon, and raisins.

Have you ever had Eggs Benedict? Don’t worry, there’s no hollandaise to be found in this post. Truthfully, I don’t even know what’s in hollandaise sauce, but I think there’s butter and some other artery clogging stuff. Not for me. I’ll tell you what IS for me though. Bread. If I had to limit myself to one food for the rest of time it would probably be bread. Meh. I will probably take that statement back the second I remember something else I frequently binge on. But for now let’s just go with it. … Read more >
