Before I get to the real purpose of this post
(life changing!) I thought I would run you through the madness that usually takes place a few nights a week when I try to prepare for the next day. On Tuesday night I had class and got home at 10:00 PM, so I moved quickly. I like to prep the hubby's dinner, my breakfast and/or lunch, and get my stuff together as much as possible so I can get dragged out of bed at the latest moment possible.
First up is lunch prep:
I don't feed my hubby anything that I wouldn't theoretically feed myself. Tomorrow's lunch is
organic chicken, sweet potatoes (pre-roasted in my weekend prep), zucchini and green beans sauteed in garam masala and other random spices for an Indian-inspired stirfry.
Next I made my superfood breakfast cookie:
Superfood Breakfast Cookie:
-1/2 cup oats, 1 tbsp hemp protein powder, frozen pomegranate arils, chia seeds, and Odwalla Superfood juice all mixed up and refrigerated overnight for my morning chowing pleasure.
Gina is a genius!
Finally, I danced around the kitchen with my new love:
Um, yes. I'm delightfully awkward both in pictures and in real life! And I still have no shame.
What I'm holding is this stuff:
Trader Joe's Dark Chocolate Covered Pomegranate Seeds
I'm warning you that once you get them and try them, your life will change. I am also pretending that I don't remember where I hid these guys until next time!
Question for you: What food has changed your life lately?
The product above, chia seeds, and always almond butter!

In the past few months, broccoli slaw has rocked my world! I also just bought my first jar of cashew butter, but I'm trying to get thru my jar of almond butter first before cracking that bad boy open!
