  • VEGAN BBQ JACKFRUIT BOWL

    VEGAN BBQ JACKFRUIT BOWL

    This vegan recipe for an 8 Layer BBQ Jackfruit Bowl is delicious.

    I was craving something: Hearty. Filling. Healthy. Savory. Satisfying. A little sweet. A little spicy. Full of vitamins. Crammed with fiber. Oh… and it needed to be a vegan recipe.

    I was basically asking for the Holy Grail of all lunches… so I decided to create it.

    This vegan recipe for an 8 Layer BBQ Jackfruit Bowl is delicious.

    This Vegan BBQ Jackfruit Bowl is full of so much deliciousness (8 layers of deliciousness to be precise!). It is also prepared the way that I make so many of my lunches: a lot of the materials are already prepped and flavored, but there are enough modifications and homemade additions to make it special + somewhat impressive.

    Power Toast
    After posting about my morning ritual, I had reader requests asking me to elaborate on my morning meal.

    I rotate through a few different options, but this power toast is by far my favorite.

    Why?

    It’s quick. Simple. Delicious. Filling. And packed with so many benefits.

  • BROILED GRAPEFRUIT

    BROILED GRAPEFRUIT

    This is truly one of the simplest, most delicious, sweet/tart/tangy/healthy breakfast options that I can think of.  If you want to get really fancy, you can take a cue from my Sunday tradition and eat your halved fruit off of some oh-so-chic Wedgwood china.

  • INFUSED WATER

    INFUSED WATER

    I am a water snob.  I like to drink water that is refreshing and unique… I get bored {and, therefore, dehydrated} when I try to consume enough basic water.  The best way I’ve found to make myself drink water {and lots of it} is by infusing it.

    Start with bottles of water encased in glass.  You can buy these at the store or put purified water in mason jars {or other glass containers} at home.  Put combinations of fresh, organic, local {if possible!} ingredients into the glass jars and refrigerate anywhere from an hour to overnight {depending on how potent you want the infusion to be}.  My favorite water combinations {because they are light and refreshing} are mint & cucumber and lemon & mint.  I also love to put berries, citrus, and watermelon in my water.  What are your favorite combinations?
