This week’s eats. Salad heavy and breakfast light – my hands were full!
Overnight oats blended into a Dough Boy Smoothie drizzled with Wild Squirrel and buckwheat!
Smoked salmon over a salad with avocado, carrots, and bleu cheese. This was a different kind of smoked salmon – a filet instead of the thin lox kinds. I loved it!!

Served with buttered toast and an apple with Wild Squirrel.
I lovely salad topped with a No Bull Burger, Red Hot & Blue Chip crumbles, avocado, bleu cheese, celery, peppers, and Maple Sesame Almonds.
A frozen salmon patty (Whole Foods brand) over a salad with veg and blue cheese. Orange. Whole Wheat Cinnamon Swirl bread.
Lunch at Great Harvest!! Our best sandwich toppers as a salad – plus Pesto Parmesan Swirl!
The second No Bull Burger in my pack on an arugula salad with goat cheese, carrots and torn pieces of Cville Crunch bread
With a pear! <3 pears and need to eat them more!
Cake pops at a moms group meetup!!
Amazing cappuccino foam on a walk
Tofu for dinner!
Roasted in a 400* oven for about 40 minutes on a cooling rack and served with sautéed portabella mushrooms and kale. All drizzled in a 50/50 blend of Dr. Pete’s Praline Mustard Glaze and soy sauce.
Take out sushi! Matt worked late and I failed on my planned crockpot meal. Next week!
California roll. Philly Roll. Spider Roll (love!). Tempura Sweet Potato (it was good!)
Have a great weekend!
Filet of smoked salmon, oh my! 🙂 Where does one find that? All your meals look healthy, nutritious and delish! 🙂
Whole Foods : )
That tofu looks amazing!! I made some baked tofu last night which was delicious and the first time I have ever SUCCESSFULLY made baked tofu. 🙂
I always love your salad creations! You inspire me to get more creative with my salads. I’m sure I’d get a lot less bored with them that way!
That’s my favourite way to eat tofu, nice crispy chunks! By the way, what is wild squirrel???
Delicious: http://wildsquirrelnutbutter.com/
Oh, lol! Now, it makes sense 😉
Ooh the dough boy smoothie! I’ve been craving one these days but it has been so, so cold and gross here that most of my recent breakfasts have been in veggie scramble form, and nice and hot! Your Whole Foods patties look delicious. I’ve been making my own but I’m going to look for some when I’m there tomorrow!
Just wanted to pop in and say I love this new direction of your blog. I hope you’re finding it’s a better fit for your new life as a momma! He’s adorable! Have a great weekend!
From where did you get your takeout sushi?
Lovely eats this week 🙂
Now + Zen. It was pretty average, but not too expensive
The last pear I bought had that weird gritty texture that pears sometimes get. Ick! That salad with the sandwich toppings looks amazing. That pesto-parm bread looks fantastic as well. Yum!
Everything looks great, I love this new way of blogging.
So your overnight oats were just blended after you stirred everything together the night before or in the morning before you ate? was it still as doughy and delicious?
Thanks and yep!
Ok great Thanks! Sorry so you blended at night or in the morning?
In the morn!
All that salmon looks amazing! I haven’t had any in ages and now I’m craving it!
Yes to the filet of smoked salmon! This is what I grew up with in the northwest. Thick slabs of smoked salmon is what we eat. I had never had lox until I went to college in CT. Everyone was raving about the bagels with smoked salmon served on Sundays in our dining hall and I thought “that is a bizarre combination” until I realized it was thin, barely smoked salmon LOX. I didn’t eat it for years because I thought it was weird but I eventually came to love it. Both are delicious in their own ways though I will always love a hearty chunk of smoked salmon.
M is my fave blog baby! Sooooo cute. Shhhh.
sweet potato sushi sounds amazing. I bet it was 🙂 And I love cake pops!
Your smoked salmon salad looks just like one I had earlier in the week, except my salad also had red peppers, sunflower seeds and the bleu cheese was smoked. Later in the week had the same salad with apricot white stilton instead. If you haven’t had that cheese, you should seek it out. So good!.
On a side note, I get HUGE hunks of honey smoked salmon at Costco, it looks very similar to what is on your salad, and my 5 year old happily takes it in his lunch to eat wrapped in spinach leaves. D-E-L-I-S-H.
I just wanted to say that I absolutely love your photos! Always so vibrant, crisp and inviting. You’ve had some amazing meals this week…they all look amazing!
Thanks!
I don’t like the smoked salmon filets as much as lox! I’m always disappointed when I order something with smoked salmon and they give me filet instead of lox.
Pesto Parmesan Swirl? Please open a Great Harvest bakery around here :).
And aww, Mazen’s such a cutie.
LOVE portobello mushrooms! Totally need to try the combo! I used to think nothing could beat a crisp juicy organic apple…a ripe drippy still retaining a little bit of bite pear is so much more amazing!
The spider rolls (the saucy ones!) look so good! And the Pesto Parmesan Swirl – I don’t think I’ve ever seen a savory, swirled bread. Usually it’s cinnamon or sweets, fruit spread, etc. Fun idea!
Kath – where did you get the little stuffed vegetable basket for Mazen? I love it 🙂 and he’s getting so adorable 🙂 My little nephews would love it, I’m interested in purchasing it for them!
I bought them at IKEA, but you can also find them on Amazon here.
Oh the food! I just love the variety of things you eat 🙂
Your food is so vibrant this week! It makes it so much easier for me to eat healthfully when the food is visually appealing.
The cake pops from your moms’ group look delicious.
Baked tofu looks awesome! Do you do anything to it before you bake it at 400? Like add olive oil…or just pop it in the oven?
We do coat in olive oil but otherwise kept it simple ready for sauce
I’ve seen those whole smoked salmon fillets before! So tempted to buy one but they are so darn expensive at my grocery store! Glad to hear it was a good buy though…may have to splurge on that now!
The smoked salmon dish looks amazing and I love the design on the Cake Pops! Thank you for sharing all of these lovely dishes!!
Your salads look so delicious and healthy. Do you eat them dry or do you add dressing of some kind?
I usually just drizzle them in olive oil and some sea salt. I don’t really care for bottled salad dressings and don’t always have time to make my own, so I’ve gotten used to olive oil alone
Oh my your food pictures are amazing. Everything looks so fresh and delicious!
I don’t crave salads as much in the winters, but reading your posts always inspires me to eat them more often!
I have been on a salad kick lately myself! I love the idea of adding blue cheese. 😀
I love those No Bull burgers! They’re so good!
I’d be in trouble with that pesto parm swirl bread around! Your salad’s look delicious too! Unfortunately salads are making me gaggy lately (it happens for awhile every couple of months :/). Looking forward to spring when I enjoy them again.
do you buy the smoked salmon at the fish case?
It’s nearby….across the aisle at our store
It always pleases me when you show some love to the bosc pear – homely, but oh-so-delicious (in a earthy way, that is.)
Oh, and check out the opening sequence to Friday night’s episode of Portlandia…you’ll get a kick out of it!
Happy Sunday, Kath! 🙂
The smoked salmon fillet on salad and the apples with buttered toast looked delish and super easy to make. I’ve got some fabulous ideas for this weeks meal plan, thank you!
Hey Kath! Not sure if you or Matt are interested, but I’m having a magazine giveaway on my blog:

Hope you’ll stop by!
All of your swirl bread looks to die for!
I love all the different breads – yum!
One of our stores sells a couple different flavors of Wild Squirrel and I always eye it when I walk by lol. What flavor do you usually get?
Chocolate coconut or vanilla espresso!
LOVE that praline glaze! [If it is the one I tasted at Feast…] Also, I need to get my hands on some more of those No Bull Burgers. I don’t think I’ve found a veggie burger that tops those in my opinion.
I, too, have been having pear revelations. Why do I always forget how delicious they are?
Hey Kath!
Your web site is great and I just was thinking, maybe you have tried them? Sunshine Burgers. I was recommended them by a dietician and they are so good! Just wanted to inform in case They are one of my favorites.
