Getting back to the grind was painful today, especially since our weather is still cold, windy, and rainy. What’s up with the weather? We’re usually dry and hot this time of year and I’m actually ready for the heat. But if I can’t have it, then creamy comfort food will just have to do. You […]
Mustard Cultured Veggie Salad
It’s Thursday which means my fridge is embarrassingly empty. Seriously, it’s a sad scene. Work has been so stressful that I’ve had no motivation to go shopping after. Plus with hubby on business travel again, I have less motivation to shop and meal plan for just me. But a nearly empty fridge can be a […]
New Purse & Mushroom Hemp Gravy
I’m a sucker for purses, there’s something refreshing and uplifting about switching purses when things get heavy and stressful… or maybe that’s just me. Since going high-raw vegan, I’ve become more aware of eco-friendly products and the impact of where products are manufactured. Not only am I shopping for vegan purses now, but hopefully ones […]
Sun Dried Tomato Hemp Sauce
So no popcorn and cereal for dinner on another lonely night without hubby. But I was craving my other favorite comfort food – creamy hemp sauce. I adore creamy tomato sauces, something about the tang of the tomato mixed with a smooth and rich texture. Years ago I had a creamy tomato Alfredo-like sauce over […]
Zucchini Hemp Hummus
I am so glad this week is almost over! With so much going on at work, I felt deprived of fun time and time to get stuff done at home. Thursdays are odd food days here since I’m usually running low on fresh ingredients and/or feeling pretty burned out from the week. Simple meals are […]
Hemp Seed Alfredo
I just can’t get away from smoothies for breakfast, I’m addicted! They’re simple, nutrient dense and fast, perfect for my rushed work mornings. I keep thinking oatmeal, cereal, or something different would be nice on weekends to mix things up, but always end up going with a comforting, veggie packed smoothie. So I’ve been trying […]
Spinach Pesto & Low Carb Noodles
Yuck, another day of rain and strong wind. But there is a pro to days like this, I have an excuse to stuff my unwashed hair into a messy bun. Why bother putting effort into it when it’ll be lost seconds after stepping outside? Exactly. But today should be the last day of crappy weather […]
Balsamic Hemp Dressing
Our weather this week has still been cruel, we had a little sunshine peak through this afternoon while I was at work and the wind and clouds crept back by the drive home. Not fair! But I’m trying to make the most of the icky weather catching up with the DVR during my indoor workouts […]
Creamy Hemp Seed Casserole
Remember this show? I actually wore my hair in a mess of scrunchies like that in junior high and they looked ridiculous in my fuzzy curly hair! But I adored this show, Mayim Bialik was one my idols for being able to pull off such daring fashion – I mean a skirt made out of […]
Bananas, Kale Chips & Another Giveaway!
Today was a very quiet day at home thanks to it raining all day, we stayed in and cleaned, did laundry, watched TV, played in the kitchen and I got another load of clothes and household items together to donate. Decluttering feels so good! But the chihuahua is giving me the stink eye from being […]
