For breakfast I had another bowl of oats. Today's oats were topped with a half of a banana, and a sprinkling of walnuts and shredded coconut. SO good.
For lunch I packed up some carrots, dolma and an avocado and tomato salad made with the other half of my avocado from yesterday. It stayed nice and green, thanks lemon juice!!
I roasted up my brussels sprouts and cauliflower from Trader Joe's this morning and packed it up with the rest of my sesame tofu from Whole Foods for a quick dinner.
This photo is for Shen who is always confused by my food touching rules :) I decided to save my leftover veggies in one container...but I found one with a divide that happens to fit the leftovers perfectly and I thought Shen might get a kick out of it. I honestly didn't care if the veggies touched but it was really just amusing to do it this way.
I just wanted to show this pic because I think it is hilarious. My boss found a podcast demonstrating this cool effect with a fisheye lens and a ring light so we were testing it out yesterday and I love the way it looks. We all now have a ridiculous picture of us as our desktop on our giant screens at work. It is a bit scary because the shots are not the most flattering (which is why I posted this one and not that one hahaha) but I just thought I'd share. Yes, I wear glasses when I use the computer and I can't stop staring at the one brown spot in my blue eyes. :)
Anyway, hope you all enjoyed this quick post. Have a great hump day!
Yea, hump day! I don't mind if my food touches. In fact, I like to mix all my food together on my plate. Mmmm...
ReplyDeleteThat fisheye picture is freaky! Did you always have a brown spot on your blue eye? My eye color changed as I got older from dark brown to a yellowy gold. I must be a vampire. :)
On an unrelated note, I saw in your bio that you love Halloween. I'd like to see a post about what kinds of Halloween candy/treats you eat.
All the food looks great, but I'm drawn to your lunch especially...so colorful and those big chunks of avocado look so good!
ReplyDeleteI will cooking up my brussel sprouts this evening! A delicious day, for sure! Also, thank you for the idea of overnight oats with blueberries in a smoothie - I will absolutely be making one in the next few days.
ReplyDeleteI noticed no mention of a sniffle or headache - does this mean you're all better?!
Well, it's obvious why you can't have the Brussel Sprouts touching the Cauliflower. I'm not a complete idiot.
ReplyDeleteSo it's your boss who comes up with these 'Alice in Wonderland' wedding photo ideas?
Hellooooo ladies! :)
ReplyDeleteSage - I am very picky about when my food touches. A lot of the time I'll pair fruit as a side for a savory meal and that is mostly when I can't stand my food touching. I don't mind if veggies touch or fruit with other fruit. It is a case by case basis :) I've only just recently noticed the brown spot in my eye. I have no clue how long it has been there and it is just one speck in one eye. That is a great idea, I'll do a whole Halloween post sometime in October!
Rose - Thanks! Lunch was really yummy! I'm really loving avocado recently.
Ingrid - My brussels sprouts came out great. I season with only garlic and pepper. How do you season yours? Yes I'm finally feeling better, thanks! Back to the gym tomorrow ;)
Shen - LOL! Well he just started using the idea, I guess whoever made the podcast he saw came up with it? Who knows, I just think it looks hilarious!
I could live on Bobo's oat bars for the rest of my life. Seriously, soooooo good.
ReplyDeletePS - banana/coconut/walnut oats is my favorite way to eat oatmeal.
