Basic Breakfasts

What I’m enjoying most about the summer is being around my family, close to the sun, with access to the beach. I love our shared meals, the fruit we always have in the house, my long post or pre-breakfast bike rides. Making breakfast for the family feels like less of a chore and more of a gift, dinner is more of a chore - if I’m being really real.

A $15 Produce Refresh + This Week's Food Map

I spent about $15 at the market to refresh my produce and I'll combine that with leftover produce, pantry items/staples to make meals throughout the week. Because of my teaching and coaching schedule I've been eating many, many more veggie based bowls lately. Lots of colors layered with whole grains, sauces for flavor and in the evenings mainly soups/salads and toasts with avocado or hummus.

This is a system that's been working for me and to be wholly honest I probably wouldn't be cooking in such volume for myself if I wasn't trying to keep my food costs down.

Amping Up Your Avocado Toast, Signs Of Hunger + How To Be Prepared

I'll be going out to lunch today so I wanted a breakfast that would sustain my energy and give me a boost for the long walk I plan on taking. I know my body and I know it'll be feeding time at the zoo well before 1pm, so I've got my snack bag packed so I'm not skipping and then dipping into whatever looks good to feast on at 1pm. 

Having breakfast at 7:30am and waiting 5.5 hours to eat lunch is a NO GO in my book and kinda in everyone else's. Checking in on hunger can be tricky, but building a habit out of it is how you recognize it. Here's how.

Food Uncomplicated

As I sat down to my breakfast this morning, I thought about simplicity. How we as humans seek food and life answers in others when they're really inside of us. To truly get well and live our healthiest life, we have to ask ourselves some tough questions about the choices we make every day. We gotta get real about ourselves and our food and move from there.

Miso Guac Toasts with Poached Eggs

For my fifth and final toast post of the week, I'm bringing you a delightful way to use miso. Maybe you've never used it at home but know it's a key ingredient in many Asian dishes, soups and dressings. BRING MISO INTO YOUR HOME, IT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE. I say change your life and that's dramatic, but it will certainly be more tasty. You've nothing to fear by using it ...

Horseradish Avocado Toast

I already bitched about why no one should be paying $12 for avocado toast. Now, you might want to do yourself a favor and invest in a $2.39 bottle of horseradish as it can kick up anything from your avocado toasts, to eggs, sauces, dressings and beyond. No ingredient is 1 dimensional and I want you to stop thinking that way.

Simple Salmon Toasts

Every day this week, I'm posting about toasting! It's a great no cook meal you can feel good about making at home in the midst of the holiday haze. No cook cooking helps boost that kitchen self-esteem when we're all too pooped to think about making meals or if you're not super confident in the kitchen to begin with.

Nut Butter Toast + Trimmings

The beauty of toast is that YOU CAN PUT ANYTHING YOU WANT ON IT! Eat it with good butter or olive oil and a lil salt! That reminds me of childhood! Use nut butter only! Stack your nut butter toast with toppings that'll keep you full, like flax meal (also with an omega 3 punch), bee pollen (and added sweet energy source)
