What I Eat In A Day | August 30, 2015

Today, I started the morning off with the last of my orange juice. Perks of living on my own: getting to drink straight out of the bottle! IMG_9761

While my bread was toasting, and water was brewing for my coffee I had a few sprays of my B-12 supplement and ate half of a Brazil nut as a selenium supplement. Did you know that one Brazil nut has your daily dose of selenium?! Pretty cool!

Next up in my breakfast making routine is brewing my coffee. Once I pour the hot water into my French press, I let it sit for about 5 minutes which takes lots of patience!IMG_9762 Continue reading “What I Eat In A Day | August 30, 2015”

What I Eat In A Day | August 22, 2015

For breakfast, guess what I had…? You probably guessed right, two slices of Ezekiel bread with peanut butter and jelly with a side of fruit (two peaches, and a banana). For my coffee, I added in some almond milk and a few drops of liquid stevia. I am usually a black coffee drinker, but lately I’ve been enjoying adding a little almond milk into my coffee.

An hour or two after breakfast, I went to a few thrift stores around town. I absolutely love to go thrifting on a Saturday afternoon, because you never know what you’ll find! Also, who can beat clothes for less than a dollar?!

What I’ve Been Eating This Week

I decided to expand my typical What I Eat In A Day into a What I’ve Been Eating This Week. Mostly because I just kept forgetting to take photos of my food, so I thought I’d just combine all the ones I did remember to take and put it into one post.

This past week, I started my senior year of college! I’m trying to get back into a routine and get better at packing food/snacks to take to campus to eat throughout the day. So now, onto the food!

On Saturday, my mom was in town visiting and we went to Mellow Mushroom for dinner. Did you know they have a vegan menu?!? Pretty awesome! We shared a vegan pizza that was incredible!

What I Eat In A Day | August 13, 2015

I’m back in my apartment this week, which means back to my typical breakfast! Two slices of Ezekiel bread with peanut butter and blueberry jelly. I had along side it two yummy peaches and a banana with some coffee. I’ve been sprinkling a little bit of cinnamon into my coffee grounds before brewing it to give it a little extra kick. Also, I think I’m secretly wanting it to hurry up and be fall time.

What I Eat In A Day | August 7, 2015

I was back at home, and out of my apartment for the week so today’s food was a little different than it typically is. For breakfast, I didn’t have my “usual,” but instead had two slices of (slightly burnt..oops!) Ezekiel cinnamon raisin bread drizzled with maple syrup and two bananas. I also had a cup of coffee, with some almond milk added to it.

My mom has a huge container of herbs, and the basil was growing super tall. I picked off several stems and started to dry them to make some dried basil. It’s really easy to do! All you have to do is pick some stems of an herb, then tie a string (yarn or twine works well) to the end of the stem, and then tie each stem to a coat hanger. Hang the hangers in a dark, dry closet for a few weeks and you’ll have some awesome/flavorful dried herbs! Super simple and inexpensive!
