I started my Friday with a Breakfast Cookie again!
Same ingredient list as last time:
- 1/3 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 tbsp chia seeds
- 1 tbsp almond butter
- 1/8 cup almond milk
- 1/2 mashed banana
- 1 tbsp hemp seeds
- 1 tbsp vanilla spice hemp powder
- 1 tbsp raisins
Topped with 1/2 banana, and maple cinnamon almond butter!
I love cookies for breakfast. Especially super filling and satisfying ones. 🙂
Lunch was boring – a Lentil Burger with a slice of american cheese and ketchup on a sandwich thin.
Tonight, we headed to a fiesta!
I brought a Southwestern Quinoa Salad, which was delicious!
This is perfect for a summer party or a Mexican fiesta because it does have a little kick from the pepper. The recipe is from Mark Bittman and you can find it here.
I chopped up the sweet potatoes and peppers as the quinoa was cooking.
(The sweet potatoes get boiled until tender)
Once everything was cooked and chopped, I just threw it all together in a bowl. Then mixed and added some fresh veggies on top.
The dressing is a simple lime juice and olive oil.
The salad is refreshing, yet light and filling. It was perfect.
Happy Friday!
