Day 14: Pizza For Breakfast

Actually, breakfast is the only meal that wasn’t made up of pizza. But that would have been a good idea… Breakfast: More mediocre zucchini bread from yesterday. Maybe the remainder of this loaf will be made into bread pudding. Clearly, dessert comes after breakfast: More of the life-changing raw soft serve. The other day it [...]

Day 13: Flourless Pizza and Pie

Zucchini bread for breakfast I don’t exactly have a recipe for this. Remember that zucchini? Well, I’m still using the ever-dwindling remnants! Undoubtedly, that two dollars’ worth of zucchini was one of the best purchases I’ve ever made. Anyway, I was inspired by Smitten’s banana bread recipe, and essentially made it but used 1 1/2 [...]

Day 12: Same and Different

This morning’s breakfast looks familiar… But when you have a good thing going, why change it? Peanut butter breakfast cookies + super-charged Green Monster. The cookies were similar to yesterday, but with a few changes. I am still experimenting, but zeroing in on a variation I love. There was also a Green Monster packed up [...]

Day 11: Curry, Pickles, and Jel(lo)

(But, not together.) Breakfast: You’ve probably heard of ‘three ingredient peanut butter cookies’ that are essentially (with a few variations), 1 cup of peanut butter, 1 cup of sugar, and 1 egg. Well, I’ve been thinking about some kind of healthy variation, as I love the idea of eating peanut butter cookies for breakfast. So, [...]

Day 10: Dairy-Free Specialties + More

Today was a fun food day: A fun little breakfast The pancakes are made from this recipe at Healthy Indulgences. I won’t post the recipe, but here are the ingredients, with the changes I made: 5-6 tablespoons So Delicious coconut milk 1 large egg 1/4 cup GF oat flour 2 tablespoons coconut flour 1/4 teaspoon [...]

Days 7/8/9: Feeding a Cold

Well, there was no escaping the cold/flu, this time around. When you are sick, Vitamin Water tends to taste better than food. That is quite possibly the simplest soup ever. I cooked 1/2 cup of basmati rice. Then I added a Rapunzel bouillon cube, and 2 or so cups of water to the pan. After [...]

Day 6: Precursor to a Sick Day(s)

I wasn’t feeling too well, so my appetite was a bit random, to say the least. Here are the highlights, though. Remember that chia cereal? Well, here it is: I mixed it with water this time, and I noticed a discrepancy on the package as it says to add 4 tablespoons (1/3 cup) of liquid, [...]

Day 5: Snacks All Day

Before Spinning this morning, I started with this lovely, desperately ripe, peach: Post-workout involved a very tropical Green Monster + some graham crackers + peanut butter: Tropical Green Monster 1 1/2 cups spinach 1/2 banana 1/2 cup So Delicious coconut milk 1/4-1/2 cup orange-mango juice 1/4-1/2 cup water 1/2 cup ice cubes Blend. Drink, patting [...]

Day 4: Soup and Bread (Again)

I made graham cracker dough the night before, so first thing this morning the rolling pin hit the counter. The dough is derived from Rebecca Reilly’s recipe for graham crackers. I’ve made some changes, and will be posting at The Cinnamon Quill soon. But, I made a bunch of cookies (er, crackers), a pie crust, [...]

Day 3: Soup in Summer

Today was a typically mismatched food day, let’s take a look: After some juice and a small piece of bread (not pictured), I set out on one of my treadmill hill workouts (Set the treadmill to its highest incline, crank the speed up to 3.5-4.5, and go. For 45 minutes.). Then, for my recovery, I [...]
