Lately

I’m switching my Lately posts from Saturdays to Mondays. Great way to kick off the week : ) And instead of a formal post on Saturdays I think I’ll just try to pop in with a live photo or two. I’m guessing most of you are out playing anyways.

Breakfasts

Foodblog-7141

Fa-rench toast! Made with High Five bread (love the millet seeds inside!), egg, cinnamon, vanilla, raspberries, peach and 365 Almond Butter.

Foodblog-7142

Here’s a cold bowl of overnight oats with some Blueberry Buckwheat granola from the bakery and more raspberries and almond butter.

Foodblog-7122

Did you notice iced coffee is back!? I think it was too soon. Brrrrrr! I made it cold-brew style – half a cup of grounds in a whole french press of water, on the counter overnight and then pressed and stored in the fridge for a few days. I’ll do a post on this when I master my blend for the summer soon. I did love not having to wash out the coffeepot in the AM!

Foodblog-7125

On my way out of town: yogurt, berries, granola, almond butter in the yogurt container. I think there was more yogurt in this than I realized because I was full alllllll morning!

Foodblog-7005

Pancakes with Matt! He slept in one morning and made me strawberry pancakes with Kodiak Cakes mix. Loved the little bits of berry throughout.

Foodblog-6994

You can always tell a Matt meal by the mint garnish : )

Foodblog-6992

Scrambled eggs (2) shared with Mazen. Plus toast and AB with mashed banana.

Foodblog-6990

More eggs, toast, berries. Perfect summer meal!!

Foodblog-6938Foodblog-6939

Lunches

Foodblog-6960

A big salad with peppers, carrots, bleu cheese, a No Bull Burger, dressing of honey + olive oil + salt plus Dr. Krackers on the side. Remember these? I haven’t bought them in ages and got some for quick snacks when I have friends over. Tasty and packed with unexpected fiber + protein.

Foodblog-6961

Another day I had sardine salad. A can of sardines mashed with greek yogurt (about 2 tbsp), mustard, smoked paprika and served on crackers.

Foodblog-7002

Foodblog-6996

Foodblog-6928

Avocado toast with local cheese and radish matchsticks. More on the radishes soon!

Foodblog-6930

Lunch on a rainy day. Salad with avocado, blue cheese, and a Spinach Feta roll. Dressing was olive oil and honey and salt again.

Foodblog-6945

On the side: greek yogurt with peach jam.

Foodblog-6944

Matt came home for lunch one day and I made us salads with half a No Bull Burger each, egg, veggies and cherries on the side.

Foodblog-7133

Dinners

Foodblog-6932

I took the leftovers from our Chicken + Bean Bake and morphed them into a second dish. I cooked a cup of mixed quinoa plus broccoli and sugar snap peas and mixed that with the leftover chicken bits and beans plus goat cheese and almonds. Loved it as a whole new meal!

Foodblog-6935

Foodblog-6937

I’m trying to put salmon on the menu once a week (for the nutrients and because I love it) so we had seared salmon…

Foodblog-6949

plus sautéed garden greens and radish and roasted potatoes coated in Greek yogurt, mustard and smoked paprika to make a “potato salad.”

Foodblog-4

M happens to love salmon!

Foodblog-6957Foodblog-6946

For our last featured dinner we had leftover shredded chicken breast reheated with melted cheese, lots of mashed avocado, Greek yogurt and salsa served with chips over a cabbage slaw.

Foodblog-7135

The cabbage was thinly sliced and dressed in Garlic Gold, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, salt and pepper.

Foodblog-7137

Foodblog-7138

Hope you are having some delicious summer meals too!

    I love seeing all the fresh summer fruits! Peaches and raspberries are my absolute favorites!!!

    I’ve never had strawberries inside my pancakes before and I’m not sure why because they look incredible. I’m excited for the sweet, local corn to be available. I love grilling it!

    I love the black and white plate–I need new fancy plates to take pictures with. And to eat on, because eating on fun plates is always much more fun than eating on boring plates.

    All of your food looks SO good. Especially the salmon–I’m a huge fan of any kind of fish, especially salmon. You’re making me want salmon for lunch!

    Good choice re. on the change in lately posts to Monday! Mazen’s veggie loving cuteness is just stealing the show in this series, though the mounds of avocado are running a close second. Avo. has to be one of my top ten favorite foods of all time and oh so versatile…so, so good on toast!

    Excited to read more re. those radish sticks 🙂

    My CSA farmer suggested a radish sandwich, so I tried one with cultured butter. The avocado would add something nice to that. The radishes in our box are so bitey and wonderful 🙂

      I’ve never tried radishes on a sandwich – with butter! That sounds so good. We bought a bunch of radishes at the farmers’ market last week, and they were so good we’re planning to buy more this week. Yum!

      Regular crunchy. I don’t think it’s marketed as raw, but the ingredients are just peanuts.

    It’s not quite summer here yet but I am already craving more salads.

    One thing I always wonder though, do you really just have honey and oil without any vinegar or lemon juice for the acid to balance the dressing? It seems to me that it would be very oily and sweet that way.

    We JUST got our kitchen up and running here in Hawaii, boxes unpacked and our first fabulous meal was cooked last night! It is so exciting to have a home cooked meal and stop eating out for a change. I love that you’ve switched “Lately” to today, it is a great way to start the week! I do a “Share a Little Love” about the things I loved from my previous week and I switched to Mondays too, it helps me see the small things that were great and get me pumped for a week ahead!

    Hey Kath! I’ve loved your blog for years and have always had similar preferences in foods so I’ve looked to you for eating inspiration, but I am currently 14 weeks pregnant and failing miserably at healthy living during pregnancy. I have had terrible nausea at all times of the day, and have basically been living off whole wheat pasta and whole grain saltines…do you have any advice for making healthful foods more palatable during pregnancy, or any tips on what worked for you? Did you ever just have to choke veggies down because you knew that you needed to, or did you actually enjoy the things you ate while pregnant? Thanks!

    Monday is DEFINITELY a better day for your Lately posts, good choice.

    If you’re in the throws of an iced coffee addiction (I get that way for a few weeks, then I’m over it) may I suggest The Pioneer Woman’s method? I do it on Sundays and have iced coffee all week long, and there’s only one real clean up day.

    So Ive started to eat clean, slowly but trying. Cut my portions too, and now im already done 10 pounds for the month. When I looked at your post today it dawned on me how our food choices are becoming similar. I m very happy to finally have found something that is working. Its pretty easy so far, ive stopped with the sugar habit and really just started to make wiser choices. Also I am trying to eat mindfully, and its helping:)

He doesn’t seem to really like meat…but if I put a plate of fish (especially salmon) in front of him, he goes to town!! Just the other day, he ate pasta with fish roe and literally licked the plate, lol!

      I think it can take your stomach awhile to adjust to these! Maybe start out with just a half teaspoon or so and increase bit by bit? You could also try the ground version instead of the whole seeds; maybe that’d be a bit easier on your digestion.
