I’m relieved this week is more than halfway over because I’m exhausted with stress. I actually overslept my alarm this morning, I remember setting it before bed, but woke up 20 minutes past it to find it was off. Somehow I turned it off and don’t remember. Scary! Note to self: get to bed earlier […]
Hemp Spinach Dip
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 […]
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 […]
Orange Butternut Stew
I am a fan of pomegranates, the sweet and tarty seeds remind me of snacking by the pool on lazy summer days as a kid. Days when I was relaxed, having fun and not in a hurry because eating a raw pomegranate is a time-consuming project that the adult version of me still manages to […]
Creamy Chickpea Chowder
Today I decided to skake things up for lunch, using my lunch break to make a stock-up trip to Target. Instead of one big meal, I had a snack before and a Sun Warrior smoothie after. The snack was a Kind bar and the first time I’ve tried one – Kind Plus Cranberry Almond. Usually […]
He’s So Sweet
Okay, now I’m really ready for this week to end! I got this bright idea for dinner to try a curry spinach pate because I have quite a bit of spinach in my garden now. Cute ladybug, huh? It’s like she was waiting there for me to take the picture. :-) Anyway, I got really […]
Spicy Spinach Tortillas
I hope everyone is having a great weekend so far. Mine has been wonderful thanks to beautiful weather! Finally, right? For once I’m not whining about the weather! :-P Anyway, it’s also been a productive weekend in gardening and creating another dehydrator recipe. First, yesterday I threw together a quick taco-themed salad for lunch – […]
Cashew Dip & Spinach Apple Soup
I’m having a lazy, but productive Saturday while still recovering from chasing very active toddlers loaded with sugar and pizza and cramming myself into kiddie rides last night. Also spending time in the kitchen today to try new recipes. I got in a little shopping Costco, but found the Vita-Mix demonstration and special is over […]
