Hiya, folks! Are you staying warm? I’ve officially moved to my winter sleep wardrobe, AKA these jammies err’ night.
Breakfast
I’m on a bagel kick! I got Alvarado Street sprouted onion and poppyseed bagel in the frozen section of whole foods and I’ve been LOVING them! Each bagel has a whopping ten grams of plant protein and four grams of fiber.
In case you’re wondering, sprouting helps make the nutrients in the grains more bioavailable and makes them easier to digest!
Lunch
I made a super yummy Thai curry pumpkin soup with lentils that I’ll be sharing on Instagram soon, but I gotta say that the highlight was this salad. I came home from work starving and was craving a loaded salad.
For the dressing, I whisked together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Dijon, maple syrup, salt and pepper.
Into the bowl of mixed greens went chopped carrot, avocado, pear, sharp cheddar, and homemade croutons (toss bread cubes with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic, and dried rosemary and bake at 375F till crispy). It was seriously the best combo ever!
Dinner
My vegan lasagna for the win! We made garlic bread on the side, obviously.
Snacks
Favorite yogurt flavor alert! I also made no-bake chocolate almond bites from Cookie and Kate’s cookbook. Very tasty!
Dessert
Brownie plates with Breyer’s vanilla all the way.
Fashion Inspo
Loving this sherpa jean jacket that’s currently on sale. I have it in both colors (size medium) and Jeff has the men’s one in black!
If you’re looking for super warm down winter coat, I just splurged on this one in “army.” I don’t have one that covers my butt and I need one with these Ohio winters!
My favorite black booties are currently on sale at DSW. In cooking world, my dream Le Creuset dutch oven (on my wedding registry!) is currently 30% off!
Have the best week, friends!
I never knew that sprouting makes the nutrients in grains more bio available and digestible. Thanks for teaching me something new!
You’re welcome!
Love the recipes but disappointed to see that animal fur is still being used on clothing. ☹️
