Eat Light, Be Light

Eating one step away from the sun

Day 5

Ornery. Feeling a little ornery. Last night for dinner I combined the lentil stew I made the night before with some kale and quinoa. It was tasty but….

This morning I was feeling adventurous so I made a … thing.. don’t really know what to call it. It was going to be blueberry muffins but the batter was too thick so I put it all in the cheesecake pan and made a kind of … giant dry muffin.

I combined coconut flour and teff flour with a mashed banana and some applesauce, coconut oil, maple syrup and almond milk, but I think I added too much flour to the wet mixture. It’s ok, but  I probably wouldn’t offer a piece to anyone.

And it didn’t occur to me to look in my fancy new cookbook for a recipe. Maybe next time I will think of that.

I think for lunch – or rather, midmorning snack because I am not going to make it to lunch – I will have a green smoothie.

I don’t want anything to do with lentils, that’s for sure. That batch of lentil stew is going in the freezer.

I made it to lunch and  never had that smoothie. I’ve yet to make myself a green drink!

I had the same salad I had yesterday, veggie burger on a spinach salad. I toasted some sesame seeds and added them to it – super yummy, toasted sesame seeds. Now I am heading out for the afternoon and have to pack some snacks. I think I need to spend some time making some energy bars because buying them is really expensive. They will definitely have toasted sesame seeds in them.
