Long time no lately! Which means….I have lots to share!!
First up is my Coffee + Almond baked oatmeal. Ate it the next day reheated with some chocolate peanut butter and fresh fruit on the side. I shared the rest of the bake with some hungry friends : )
Next up: eggs, toast, apples with PB, coffee.
Overnight oats with green juice on the side. A refreshing blend!
Halloween oatmeal with festive sprinkles (I told you I’m behind!) I put some Noosa pumpkin on top – delicious!
Breakfast in bed – apple cobbler swirl French toast with PB. Matt’s creation!
And a dreary morning of eggs, pear and toast with jam.
For the lunch bunch I had …
Leftover sushi with sautéed chopped Brussels. This was sooooo good the next day!
Leftover pizza – also appreciated this so much when I was starving for lunch the next day. Went back for one more slice! Salad on the side with greens, pepper, carrots and goat cheese.
My friend Jessica made these oat bars and brought them to the gym, so I had one of those as a post workout snack.
Since that filled me up a little, I had a lighter lunch of kale chips and cheese! Great combo ; )
He’s a mix of leftovers – lentils, roasted roots, greens, and a side of Eppie’s cornbread. (We always get too much when we eat there so I take the extra piece home!)
And finally, a quesadilla and a cup of homemade soup topped with parmesan.
Lots of pizza and salmon – and this is what M has to say about that!!
We went to Sal’s with Karen and got Caesar salads and the gooiest pepperoni pizza ever.
We did a simple salmon dinner the next night and used a bottled chimichurri sauce from Whole Foods. Not good – homemade is best! (Obviously…) Rice and broccoli on the side.
I had more salmon the next night at my friend Sarah’s house. She hosted a Matilda Jane party and had a DIY salad buffet.
More pizza!! We had some friends over for homemade pizza and salad. Matt’s pizza rules!
I made a big salad to go with it –
Mazen loves making his own personal pie! Spinach snuck into the crust : )
And finally – we had the Butternut, Mushroom and Kale dressing with some pork on the side. The pork was called “side meat” and was like giant bacon! A little too much fat for me, but still tasty.
Hope y’all are having a great week!!
Mattie says
lots of lovely eats!! All the pizza and greens look so good. We are planning a pizza party Friday night and I can not wait!
Kaila @healthyhelperblog! says
Awww Mazen’s thumbs up pic is so cute! All your eats look delicious as always. I love all of your tea spoons! Long thing spoons are the best!

Hi
KathEats says
Howdy!
Anele @ Success Along the Weigh says
Delicious looking as always!
I had to crack up because M’s pic looked like “what has two thumbs and just got a new haircut? This guy!” 🙂
KathEats says
Haha!!
Elise says
Hi Kath! I just wanted to leave a suggestion for these lately posts…have you thought about doing them in a way so the meals work together and make sense? Like you could focus on one day “lately” or one week “lately” instead of just putting together random meals? I don’t really need to know what you ate for breakfast on Halloween since it was 20 days ago…I’d much prefer a snapshot of what you’re actually eating in a given amount of time. I think it would make more sense that way. Just a suggestion!
KathEats says
Thanks for the tip. I have thought about doing one day at a time, but then I’d miss out on sharing so many other meals. Most of the time all the meals in my Lately post are from one week, but they are usually a week or two behind real time. The only time it’s awkward is when there’s a holiday! Otherwise it’s just days like today. But I appreciate the feedback.
Steph says
I’d also love to see the what you ate in one day — I’m trying to work more on balancing what I eat within a day (so, on a day with a carb-heavy breakfast, I try to do a lunch focused on veggies/lean protein, etc) and on keeping track of snacking throughout the day. I would love to see your balance within a day (or days).
Ali says
I think it’s fine to miss sharing some meals, especially since I feel like we’ve seen a lot of these in previous posts. A lot that are posted in the Lately posts are also so similar to each other that I tend to have to scroll back and forth to because I think it’s a different photo of the same meal. That’s cool, we all eat like that (I know I eat the same things over and over when I really get into something, haha!)! I don’t think you need to feel obliged to share it all though. I agree that just one day at a time might be enough.
shaleen says
I would also appreciate seeing a day’s worth of meals and snacks, too! Seeing how you balance everything within a day would really be inspiring!
Love that thumbs-up pic of Mazen!
Lucia says
Ditto!
Ashley @ Coffee Cake and Cardio says
Pizza is seriously the best!
Kay says
How do you get your coffee so frothy?! I’m making my Christmas list and want something that puts perfect foam on top! 🙂
P.S. and can you froth almond milk the same way? That is what I use.
KathEats says
I have a milk frother from IKEA that works really well! It was $4. I’m not sure about almond milk – I use 2% and whole milk so I think the fat really helps. I am pretty sure you could get some foam out of almond milk though.
Kori says
You can! I used a cheap frother from World Market, & I was able to make a nice almond milk chai latte for my boyfriend. 🙂
Ali says
Bonjour frothers are great and can be found at pretty much any kitchen store! Mine was $4 as well! 🙂
Mom says
Love to try one of those oat bars!
Paige @ Healthy Hits the Spot says
Yum! This all looks so good. Love these posts 🙂
Ashley @ Saving Money in your Twenties says
All your pizza is making me craveeee pizza!
Rheagan @ Hardly Awesome says
Have you ever done a recipe for your homemade chimichurri? I would love to see it!
KathEats says
We have used the Cook Smarts recipe in the past – it’s great!
Emma says
I LOVE side meat! It has such a lovely savory flavor. Who’s Matilda Jane?
KathEats says
A clothing line for kiddos: https://www.matildajaneclothing.com/
Emma says
thanks!
Christy @TheMuddyApron says
I like that you put all your meals together in one post. It fills me up and gives me more than one idea for things. Happy Thursday. C.
Sagan says
Mmm! All these pictures are giving me menu planning ideas… 🙂
Erin @ Her Heartland Soul says
What yummy eats! I love breakfasts in bed!
Kate says
I really dig how much you appreciate cheese. I’m on board.
[email protected] says
Like pork belly? I’m quite the fan! Eggs as beautiful as ever! Love seeing kids enjoying making their own food. My little nephew (Mason actually!) loves making his own pizza…devours half the toppings in the process though!
Vanessa says
OK, that little thumbs up almost gave me a heart attack. Too cute!
Annie says
What kind of rice do you use/rice cooker do you have? I think it’s time i update from the boil-on-the-stove method!
KathEats says
Here’s the one I have! It cooks everything : )

Linda @ The Fitty says
Gooey pizza makes. Me think if deep dish pizza, since you can have a soup of cheese in the center, ha! So was it deep dish?
Alex @ get big, go to work says
Your breakfasts look absolutely delicious!! Reading through your “Lately” posts always has me wishing I had a seat at your breakfast table 😀
Emily says
I would LOVE to hear more about the Apple Cobbler french toast??!! Was it made with Great Harvest bread, or something I can easily replicate?
KathEats says
It was made with our apple cobbler swirl bread!
Livi @ Eat, Pray, Work It Out says
That corn bread looks great!
And I love the green juice in a wine glass- it looks so fancy!
Stephanie @ Whole Health Dork says
I agree with Mazen! Two thumbs up for pizza and salmon! And that apple cobbler French toast…looks delicious! Ingredients?
KathEats says
It’s made with our Great Harvest Apple Cobbler Swirl bread!
Paulette Clark says
Just an idea for more side meat in the future. When I was a kid, oh back about 50 years ago we ate side pork a lot. It came with the pigs my Dad brought home and butchered. Well anyway. Mom soaked it in milk( although I don’t think it needs more than dipping) and then into seasoned flour. It was also sliced not in thick pieces like pork belly is, I think. It was then fried in a little oil until it was browned. Then into the oven for a while. Until it got VERY crispy. It was one of my most favorite things to eat and still is, but I am not able to find unsalted side pork where I live. It’s all salt pork here. I did try this recipe with salt pork and it was good, but still too salty after rinsing and soaking in milk.

Matilda Jane is a local company for me – I’m in Fort Wayne! And, my friend’s advertising company does all their work – he’s amazing! How nice to see a local company getting notice so far away. 🙂
KathEats says
I think there are sales people all over, but I don’t know for sure!
