Protein Bagels
It’s Sunday. What does that mean? Baking adventure! I cooked so much today. I felt compelled in my soul to just whip one thing up and then the next and then the next! We had these protein bagels, then for a snack protein banana sorbet, and for lunch there was hearty vegetable soup with lentil…
Maca Cherry Berry Raw Cacao Smoothie
After a few days of cabin fever, we’ve settled back into the normal routine here in the DMV. It’s February, a week after the blizzard, and the snow is almost completely melted. The sun was shining today, and my package filled with Terrasoul Superfood goodies arrived in the mail! I did a lot of…
Vegan Carrot Cake Smoothie
Happy Blizzard 2016 from the DC metro area! It’s snowing at a rate of 2-3 inches of snow PER HOUR…and it hasn’t stopped since yesterday (Friday) at 1pm. We’re all bundled up inside our apartment enjoying the down time and excuse to be homebodies. Last night we set up the hookah in our living room…
Pre-Thanksgiving Kitchadi Detox
It’s been a long and exciting week. On Monday, out of nowhere, we ended up taking in an abandoned kitten. We’ve wanted a pet for a long time, and were waiting for the right time. But there is usually never a perfectly right time…sometimes the universe decides to put something in your path. It took…
Humpday Green Goddess Smoothie
In order to start my day right I made an ultra-green smoothie, it’s one of my favorites. This is definitely a treat because of the high sugar content of the fruits in the smoothie, but it’s still overall an extremely healthy breakfast.
Bistango, NYC restaurant with GF options
Mid-May Keith and I went home to Long Island to celebrate his cousin’s wedding. While we were home I was able to go with my sister, mom, and granny to my sister’s final wedding dress fitting in NYC. Her dress was gorgeous and the seamstress fixed the bra cup issue–it’s a light and float…
Sweet Spirulina Smoothie
As you can see from this post and the last, I’ve recently invested in some Matcha and Spirulina. I also bought Hemp Seeds as well. I went on a health food spree when I found out I could exchange my American Express points for cash on Amazon. It’s a pretty sweet new feature. This morning I put…
Steamed Matcha Buns
A few days ago I ordered matcha powder to use in backing and smoothies. This morning I decided to give these Steamed Matcha Buns a try–the recipe was originally posted on Rolling Scone. I adapted the recipe a little bit using my own flour blend. Keith and the roommates all tried these and confirmed that…
Gluten Free ButterAlmondMilk Waffles
I was good all week, lots of smoothies, exercising, and mindfulness. Today was a treat day. These waffles came out so light and fluffy. They were perfect and delicious and have cemented my confidence in the wonderful combination of white rice flour and tapioca flour–the same combination I use to make my big hit gluten…
