Hey y’all! Hope you’ve had a great Tuesday. Mine has been pretty good. Well, I’ve definitely been a slacker this past week on posting my eats and I hate that!
Here were the main eats over the last few days….I’m just trying to play catch-up today.
FRIDAY
Breakfast: Oats + banana slices + chia seeds…uh, I think I should’ve mixed the chia seeds into the pot before putting it into the serving dish, they were kind of all over the place and I kept getting mouthfuls of the seeds…I can definitely tell these are high in omega’s – it kind of tasted fishy to me. I think next time I try them out, I’ll put them in something…like muffins.
Oats
Lunch: Millet Salad from my savory millet experiment

Massaged Kale Salad
Dal
- 1.75 cups red lentils
- 6 cups of water (or broth)
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- salt
- Mustard Seeds
- Cumin Seeds
- Cinnamon
- Garlic Powder
- Ginger Powder
- Olive oil
I heated the olive oil over medium heat and added the cumin seeds and mustard seeds until they began to pop. Then I added the onion and sautéed until it was soft. Then I added the spices, lentils and water. I brought this to a boil and then lowered to a simmer and cooked for about 35 mins.
Dal - cooked to perfection
I just can’t get over how amazing this Dal tasted – I could eat it everyday and it seems like we have this past week. So yum!!
And I’ll leave you with this song that I found a while back and have been loving again lately Friendly Fires – Paris (Aeroplan Remix ft Au Revoir Simone)
Night y’all….
