Thanks to the magic of leftovers, this lunch took me exactly four minutes to throw together. I toasted an Oroweat Sandwich Thin, added a schmear of hummus, and plopped on a slice of leftover tofu from yesterday along with a little bit of brown rice. We are completely out of vegetables, which explains the lack [...]

Tofu Toss

I bought a package of tofu last week at the store, and then I forgot about it until I looked in the fridge wondering what to make for lunch! I only started making tofu a couple months ago, but it’s really easy! I open the package, drain the water, and cut the tofu into slabs [...]

Morning! My meals have been a little short on creativity since our kitchen supplies are running low thanks to traveling. But I did get to use a swag bag item: With my breakfast this morning! 1/3 cup oats with water, milk, one whole banana, flax, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Look at all that [...]

It was really hard to wake up this morning for some reason. But I did it and, against some of my good senses, did Level 2 and Level 3 of the 30 Day Shred. Whew. What a fabulous 36-minute workout. Loved it and it totally got me energized for the day. After a shower, it [...]

Ahh… Vacation was lovely! I enjoyed some good times, relaxed, and spent a little quality time with my current book (The Time Traveler’s Wife). Plus I took advantage of some good eats, of course. I visited a lovely restaurant, Blue Dahlia Bistro, which has a very cool mission that’s all about using organic products, considering [...]

I have so much eggplant in my fridge right now. Thanks to the persuasive powers of the guy at the farmers’ market last week, I have more than I need. I actually used some last night in my dinner, but it wasn’t that great so I didn’t post it. But today in lunch it was [...]

A quick post for a couple quick meals! Last night was an easy one before I saw a late showing of The Hangover (which was pretty darn funny, glad I saw it). An Amy’s veggie burger on an Ezekiel English muffin with spinach and hummus. These are my very favorite veggie burgers because they’re tasty, [...]

Just as Whit mentioned in a comment the other day, I hopped back on the yoga train this morning. I turned off my alarm, rolled out of bed onto the floor, and started in on Gentle Hatha #1. This is the Yoga Download class that I started with, and it’s what I would recommend to [...]

A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort. –Herb Albright 1) Awesome workout and breakfast (but you saw that already). 2) Awesome lunch. A hummus sandwich with zucchini and carrots, cherries, and a cheese stick. 3) Awesome finds at the farmers’ market: [...]

Don’t be fooled by the size of this bowl…it’s a big bowl and my dinner portion was pretty normal! This was 1/4 cup of bulgur (dry) with cooked shrimp, edamame, broccoli, corn, and sugar snap peas. Pretty darn good! I love the combo of bulgur and shrimp. But back to portion sizes for a second. [...]
