Happy loooooove day! I’ve never been huge on V-Day. Just gimme some chocolate and a post-it note with a heartfelt message and I am a happy girl. Words of affirmation are my love language : ) (That book is life changing, by the way! Also this book is a fantastic read if you’re looking for love.)
I am so very thankful to have someone to celebrate with this year.
Some other things I <3:
This boy, obviously. We gave him a coconut piggy bank from St. Lucia and he…loved it ; ) (That face!)
Overnight oats. I made this with some siggi’s whole milk drinkable yogurts that they sent in the mail, and it saved the step of putting milk and yogurt in. I just poured in the bottle and oats with chia and strawberries and done.
Tropical food! Last week we had bean and rice bowls that I tropic-ed up with pineapple, plantains, avocado and lime.
Took me right back to the islands.
I am so appreciative of each of you! Thank you for doing life with me. xoxo.

How do you cook your plantains?
KathEats says
So no expert here, but I just picked one that was fairly ripe (aka getting black) and then sliced it and pan cooked it in olive oil and salt. I wanted it to be savory rather than the dessert style. They turned out pretty good, although a little dry. Maybe someone else has a good tip : )

I love that idea for tropical black bean bowls! We eat lots of beans and rice (maybe once a week?), and could certainly use ideas for “jazzing it up,” as my grandfather used to say 🙂
