But first, here's bits & bites of the week!
-BITES-
Easy dinner on a 90 degree day.... Simple caprese with 2 hard boiled eggs.
This was another 90+ humid day where I refused to put on the oven or even the stove. This was so easy and so delish: homemade hummus, caprese with feta, cento olive oil tuna, olives, and artichokes. It was actually extremely filling. (My mom's hummus recipe: here)
This smoothie was made for breakfast last week... (strawberries, banana, ground flax, chia, water, cinnamon). Rob thought he'd be funny by sticking a bunny in it...........
Saturday morning breakfast; ezekial english muffin, avo, fresh local strawberries, and scrambled eggs. This was actually Rob's plate... min was sized down a little.
Quick caprese with feta and avo (noticing a trend of my favorite summer dish?). I am pretty sure I ate my fav Ian's fish sticks with this.
Salad from whole foods: spinach, quinioa, shredded beats, olives, sweet potato, green chickpea cake, edamame, olive oil, and lemon juice.
Another lunch: GMO free popcorn, organic cottage cheese with pineapple and blueberries.
Hope that gives you some good ideas - especially for cooking in the hot weather!
