I started out my morning yesterday by oversleeping! My body/mind is still exhausted from my crazy weekend in NYC, so I am all about letting it rest and recuperate so that I do not get run down. So, yesterday was another ‘rest’ day in the workout world.
Once I got up, I was psyched to remember that I had juice waiting for me in the fridge from Liquiteria!
Grasshopper: apple, pear, pineapple, wheatgrass & mint. YUP – this was delicious. Not too sweet, not too minty, and I could not even taste the wheatgrass. Why can’t the juices that I make taste this good?!
Along with my juice, I had 2 slices of Millet toast. One slice with cashew butter and cherry jam, one slice with homemade Maple Cinnamon Almond Butter. Honestly, this almond butter is the best thing since sliced bread.
Lunch included some leftovers from last night. I was so happy that the recipe made so many Millet Patties because they are delicious. And, perfect for leftovers. They are good hot, cold, on top of a salad, as a burger, however you want to eat them.
I served 2 millet patties over arugula with peppers, cucumber and an pom-orange poppyseed dressing.
This dressing literally took 2-minutes to make: squeeze 1 orange into a small container, add a splash of pomegranate juice, a pinch of salt and pepper, and a shake of poppyseeds. Shake up! This will last me for at least 2 days.
Also part of lunch: Wallaby Vanilla Bean yogurt with Kaia Foods Chocolate Granola.
Yum, this might be my favorite flavor yet! (Although, I got a tip that they have a maple flavor!! I will be in love once I find it, I just know it!).
My afternoon snack consisted of another New York City goodie – a raw moonpie from One Lucky Duck! Super delicious. It was so rich and chocolaty…and huge…but, I couldn’t stop at just half. 🙂 Dessert before dinner, right?!
And, dinner was one of my favorites – Ten Minute Asparagus and Brown Rice made by Kate!
Along with a salad from Lauren which was jam packed with goodies – mushrooms, peppers, carrots, onions, radishes, dried edamame (which were delicious!).
Just as delicious as it always is.
Yum! Thanks, girls for a super dinner!!
What a long, but great day!

Sometimes dessert before dinner is a MUST-DO! 🙂
