I have more photos on my camera than I could possibly share. How about the staples? Pre-packed food – definitely necessary given the limited cafeteria options at 3 am. T.G.I.L. – thank goodness it’s leftovers because it made work prep come together in 5 minutes flat (Israeli couscous with raw cauliflower “rice”, cherry tomatoes, and spinach) Dessert – non-negotiable 🙂 [I ate this Kookie Karma holistic choco lot in the car on the way to work so I don’t have a photo, but it was dark, gooey, and utterly decadent – I will be buying… Read more >

So. Effing. Tasty. This was so much more simple than I thought it would be. I’m never buying granola again (yeah right), but still…I know what I like in my cereal so why wouldn’t I make it to my exact specifications? Right? My favorite things: 1. Clusters – textural variety is the most important part of cereal, oats, granola…shoot any food! 2. Crunch – none of this raw muesli bullsh!t, I want toasty! 3. Dried fruit and nuts – not one or the other, both. 4. Ratios – I like it when there are even… Read more >

I was going to try and throw down a quick recap of this “holiday” weekend, but alas, my ramblings got the best of me…it may be picture dense, but it’s not so quick. Saturday was the main event, if you will, but Friday was pretty sweet too. Kyle and I made a Costco run – always dangerous when you’re a foodie living on a student budget. Key purchases worth noting… Almond Butter (this jar is the size of my head) Sabra hummus x3 including spinach artichoke and roasted pine nut flavors plus individual mini tubs… Read more >

Just wanted to let you know what is coming your way… Any guesses? I haven’t forgotten about my alphebruary challenge…I’m just behind in recipe sharing. This “q” treat, however, is VERY worth the wait. I know everyone was wondering how those weird letters were going to be – particularly q, w, x, and z. But shockingly, these haven’t even been my biggest obstacles. There are some surprisingly letters (i, o, u – for instance) with minimal food options. Damn vowels aside, I knew from day one of this month’s adventure that my q dish was… Read more >

Work on Thursday left me mentally drained. I could hardly muster the energy to share the lentil loaf recipe (but it’s effing amazing so I found a way). Sigh. I’m still in a funk but I’ll spare you all and simply show off my packed food. When pears are on their last legs, I get worried that transport will be the kiss of death, and so instead of risking mush upon arrival, I go a different (safer) route. Chopping it up and adding it on top of oatmeal seems to be the best option. The… Read more >
