OK, so I don’t really know how to spell that last part of the title of the posting, but you know what I mean!
For the last few weeks I have had very little appetite, even losing a few pounds. But the appetite is returning, so let me share some of my tasties with you.
Breakfast, consisting of a healthy cold cereal, topped with fresh blueberries and banana slices, with a little almond milk poured over the top. Oh my it is so delicious! The organic fig bars are my early morning treat with a cup of coffee. I wake up hungry, so a little something like two cookies gets me going until I’m just about ready to leave for work and want something more.
Can someone say “fresh basil from the little container garden.”? Tomatoes from the farmers’ market (not local), a cucumber from a garden in my hometown further south, onion, my basil 🙂 (OK, so it really belongs to God and the earth, but it is growing right here for me to pick), and a little drizzle of balsamic vinegar. Oh my ’tis scrumptious!
No, I did not eat all four at once! This particular dish is not vegan. There is potato, dried minced onion, garlic, almond milk, vegetable broth, salt & pepper, but also 2 Tbs. of low-fat cottage cheese in each. So full of flavor, that next time I will definitely be able to leave out the cheese. Just one of my favorite dishes, and even though I left out the cow’s milk and butter, I was afraid to leave out all the cheese. Next time? No need to be afraid!
