Lately In July

Happy Monday! Happy July! Here is some food for thought for the week ahead.

Breakfasts

Foodblog-7207

Good ole oatmeal! Topped with some Great Harvest blueberry buckwheat granola and almond butter – Whole Foods brand.

Foodblog-7206 

Egg, toast, cherries, banana + almond butter

Foodblog-7170

Scrambled eggs are easy to share with the baby, so I’ve been having them more often. I get 1.5 he gets .5. Served here with fruit and a slice of leftover cornbread from dinner.

Foodblog-7250

More of the same – different form! AB + Banana toast with berries and scrambles – topped with a little goat cheese on an extra hungry morning : )

Foodblog-7299

In the spirit of make-ahead meals, I made a double batch of whipped banana oatmeal and had the second serving saved in the fridge for another day. With just a little milk and some time in the microwave it heated up quite well

Foodblog-7212

Mixed with chopped cherries and the almond butter of the week.

Foodblog-7252

Yep. This breakfast is doin’ it for me!

Foodblog-7258

Lunches

Leftover chicken with veggies, cheese and corn chips on the side.

Foodblog-7173

A No Bull Burger served as a burger instead of a salad topper. Yum pickles!

Foodblog-7232

Served with salad from the garden, avocado and loads of ketchup.

Foodblog-7228

Smoked trout on a salad with goat cheese and avocado plus the last of the chips and cherries (shared with Matt)

Foodblog-7266

Pizza + salad at a mom meet up luncheon

Foodblog-124429 Foodblog-123721

Picnic lunch out – a salad from Blue Ridge Country Store (a salad bar on the downtown mall!)

Foodblog-124556

Salad with avocado, cheese, radish, and curled up ham from Great Harvest plus a plum

Foodblog-7306

Afternoon interlude

The new UVA farmer’s market at Grove Street (behind the hospital) is great! Great Harvest is there, and so are a lot of my favorite vendors.

Foodblog-172250

Dinners

Maple salmon over salad with almonds, avocado and cornbread (salmon recipe on the way!)

Foodblog-7244

Girls’ night out – ground turkey lettuce wraps, veggies and hummus and some cheese. Glad of vino!

Foodblog-192841

A crazy looking shredded chicken and roasted potato salad with herbs, mustard and a bit of Greek yogurt as binder

Foodblog-7167

Served with sautéed zucchini and radish

Foodblog-7168

Baby munchin’ on avocado, chicken and broccoli!

    Hi Kath! I don’t normally comment, but my Mother and I stopped by your store last Thursday while we were in Charlottesville and fell in love! The girl working there gave us so many delicious samples that we had a hard time deciding. We ended up getting a whole bunch of goodies, including the Cville crunch granola, which is amazing!! It was so neat finally seeing the store in person after reading about it on your blog for so long!

      July 1, 2013 at 1:17 pm

      As soon at we started solids at 6 months. As far as I know, the only foods he can’t have are fluid cow’s milk and honey. (within reason of course)

        This is really interesting since it doesn’t seem to be warned about the way milk and honey are. I hadn’t remembered being told not to give eggs, either, but we found out the hard way when our son had a reaction resulting in a skin rash at 9 months, the first time he had eggs.

        Do you give him peanut butter? My ped wants us to wait and puts PB in the same category as honey for now but my friend’s ped said she could start introducing it at 10 months. Just curious!

          My ped said it was fine, but I haven’t had any on hand to give him (he has tasted almond + sunflower)

    Hey Kath! So glad y’all are doing well! I love that you can still make time to go out with friends and have a girls night as well as continuing to eat healthy! Your a huge inspiration to me! I was wondering what kind of almond butter from whole foods that you use and also what kind of smoked trout your using to top your salad. Thanks!

    Reply
    • KathEats says

      July 1, 2013 at 1:16 pm

      It’s the 365 brand of almond butter – roasted almonds. And Trader Joe’s smoked trout

    Your food looks delicious – I love the turkey wrap idea and that ham salad looks wonderful. I am so uncreative when it comes to salads and hate eating them – so I think I need to figure out some good toppings and dressings so I can encorporate more into my diet.

    I have those same blue willow bowls..and my oatmeal looks a lot like what you had pictured…so for a minute I was like wait a minute that looks like my breakfast!

    I really like that mosaic table beneath your Banana + Almond butter toast!! Tiles are such a classic backdrop and that one is really neat because of the antiquey look.

    I feel the same way about almond butter! I’m really lovig it lately. Dare I say it…I love it more than TJs sunflower butter! (Gasp! Lol) Do you feel the same way?

    As always, delicious eats and beautiful pictures. Have a great week, Kath!

    The fried egg and toast looks so good! I should start waking up early to fix that before work. Though, last week I took everything for scrambled eggs and cooked it in the microwave. That was pretty close. And I love making a few servings of irish oats at once for the week. Such a good idea!

    YUM, as always. I’ve been doing scrambled eggs a lot for breakfast this week too, and heaping bowls of curried lentil soup;) I finally added a “how I’m working out” post, but you continue to inspire me to look at what I’m eating as well. That is just as important!

    Thinking about breakfast and the heat, when I first tried Quinoa, I think it was recommended as a porridge and I’d eat it cold, with milk on top and berries. It was such a refreshing breakfast. Looking at your pics reminded me that I’ve got to pull that oldie but goodie out and eat it again. Hopefully tonight, I’ll get some quinoa cooked! 🙂

    Hey Kath,
    I’ve been a reader for years. You give me inspiration to live healthy everyday. I’ve just recently been introduced to traditional practices of soaking, sprouting, or fermenting grains/legumes/nuts/seeds to decrease the anti-nutrient content, and the benefits of consuming dairy raw rather than pasteurized. I was wondering what your view is on these subjects? I was also wondering what kind of yogurt you use. I can’t seem to find one I love!

    Can’t wait to hear back 🙂

      I think these practices are good ones, but I don’t think they are necessary. I buy Stonyfield Greek yogurt

        Thanks for getting back to me. How come you don’t think they are necessary?

          I think the changes are negligible – a little helpful especially if you have a health reason – but just not needed for the average healthy person
