ood morning peeps!
I have been getting up earlier lately and have been feeling great. If I get out of bed when I am still a little tired and could easily stay in bed longer, I actually feel better all day. Today I was up at 8:15 - pretty good for being on holidays I think!
I made a beautiful breakfast this morning - brownie batter, berry soft serve VOO.
Brownie Batter VOO (smaller batch)
- 1/4 cup quick oats
- 1/2 cup unsweetened vanilla Almond Breeze
- 1 scoop chia seeds
- 1 tsp cocoa
Mix together in a bowl and put in fridge overnight (or for a couple hours)
Berry Soft Serve
- 1 frozen banana
- 1/4 cup frozen berries
- 2 T Almond Breeze (more as need to reach consistency)
Mix in Vita-Mix or Food Processor
My breakfast yesterday was baked eggs with veggies and fresh squeezed grapefruit juice:
Lunch yesterday was a Green Monster (2 handfuls spinach, 1 cup almond breeze, 1 pack amazing grass, 1 banana, 1 T PB):
Later in the afternoon I had some yogurt with pineapple, coconut, hazelnuts, and choc. chips:
Dinner was salmon and mushroom risotto:
The risotto was SO good!! I am going to have the leftovers for lunch today.
This evening we are having some friends over for a BBQ. I am going to spend the day shopping for food, and preparing things for tonight. I will blog about it tomorrow morning.

Half Ironman? That is so impressive!! I had no idea since you haven't really mentioned hubby's training much. I'm guessing it's pretty intense to train for?
Have fun! Calgary is great, I love it there!!

And that risotto looks so so good. I never make it because it takes a while, but I love it.
My week is pretty low key:) I plan on working some more on my cookbook proposal!
