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 [...]

Beware: even if you buy a fresh, boneless salmon fillet from the store, there could still be little bones. If you’re not careful, one of those said bones could get stuck in your throat. Thankfully, we have a lovely, local emergency room and I was in and out in probably under 20 minutes. That is [...]

This morning was just nuts. I have no idea why, but I was rushing around and could barely keep anything straight. I finally left the house for work with (hopefully) everything in tow and in one piece. I did have time for a great breakfast, though, no worries. I started with this: Which I crumbled [...]

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 [...]

It’s 3:30 and I’m just starting my blog post…should give you an idea of how busy my day has been. And it only gets crazier from here! Long post today! Are y’all ready? We’ll start with dinner last night, which was prepared and eaten quickly before heading to a baseball game. I started by cooking [...]

Well, not really, but burgers and fries always feels like a treat meal to me. My normal bean burger recipe (1/3 cup of black beans mashed with diced mushrooms, ancho chili pepper, and one tbsp. of WW flour) on a mini whole wheat bun with spinach (beneath the burger) and “guacamole” (just mashed avocado with [...]

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 [...]

It’s been quite the busy day! This morning, I had the pleasure (and the challenge) of planning a gluten-free brunch. I decided on a frittata as the main entree. Into my ovensafe pan went (in order of cooking): onions, mushrooms, zucchini, tomatoes, diced apple, olives, and spinach. I let those cook together, added two whole [...]

Since I’m going back to school in just a few weeks, I need to prep for those 5:30 dinners. Tonight was a perfect example. One of the best pizzas we’ve ever made…maybe the best? Tomato sauce, zucchini, summer squash, cherry tomatoes, mushrooms, red onion, olives, shrimp. I really do like pizza as a dinner (particularly [...]

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 [...]
