In case you haven't heard...
WE'RE ENGAGED!
I met Jeff four years ago at Alchemy and I knew he'd be my husband after our first date. He still makes me giddy!
He is hands down the kindest, most supportive, loving, and respectful partner I could ever dream of and I'm simply ecstatic that he's mine forever. I feel like I'm on a cloud!
We truly make each other the best version of ourselves. I'll be sharing everything on wedding planning and all that jazz so stay tuned!
Breakfast
Can't get off the cereal train! I mix a few different crunchy cereals with old fashioned oats, freeze dried bananas, cinnamon, goji berries, mulberries, blueberries, flax, and walnuts. That combo though!
Lunch
I've been making these hummus pizza sort of things for lunch because they're quick to make and super satisfying. First I spread a wrap with a really thick layer of ALDI's rosemary sea salt hummus.
The I topped it with sliced kalamata olives, leftover cooked greens and shrooms, chopped broccoli, jarred sliced jalapeños, oregano, a drizzle of olive oil, and minced garlic.
I bake right it on the rack at 400F for about 10 minutes, top with arugula then devour. Delish with fresh strawberries on the side!
Snack
Leftover blueberry oatmeal bar!
Aaand some blue corn tortilla chips because they're honestly my favorite savory snack.
Dinner
This was a yummy one! Baked salmon, Trader Joe's sweet potato gnocchi (I keep it in the freezer at all times, such a delish side), and sautéed collard greens and mushrooms from our CSA.
Dessert
So Delicious ice cream bars are a staple at our house. The mocha almond fudge ones were on sale. SCORE!
Have a lovely week, pals!

CONGRATS! Wedding planning is such a personal experience and was a great lesson for me in letting go of expectations and going with the flow 😉 Having all my favorite people together, perfect weather, bottomless tacos, a Photo Booth and my man next to me was all that mattered in the end!
And oh my - your eats this week look phenomonal! I have been making a similar pizza type thing and it always satisfies. Also gotta try that salmon, gnocchi and veg combo! Those So delicious ice cream bars are the ultimate night time snack, right??
