I'M ALIVE AND HAVE A NEW BLOG ›
I’ve been dreading this moment for months. I wanted to post sooner and had recorded a video, but it was a bit too overwhelming in a way.
The past 6 months of not blogging, I’ve been spending all of my time with my beloved boyfriend and I’ve been working. My time is much more productive now that I’m not spending all my time on my laptop.
Due to my dislike of being on a computer, I was hesitant to make a new health blog on blogger. But I finally have it mostly put together and I’m ready to reveal it to you all. I’m still working on it a lot so it’s definitely not looking entirely amazing right now but I’m really hoping to make this a fantastic blog to run and to visit! Right now I only have desserts on there heh heh.
Please follow if you’d like!It still does need a lot of work and I promise it will be much better in the near future with more foods that I love to make! You can follow by email if you’re not on blogger. I would really appreciate the follows and views! Maybe even a shout to your followers here. (:

Today’s lunch. BLTA - Whole grain, veggie bacon, spinach, tomato, and avocado. With grapes, strawberries, an orange, a kiwi, and orange carrot mango juice. So good.
Dinner tonight is quinoa pasta shells with tomato basil marinara, 1/4th of an avocado, and about half of a zucchini sauteed in Earth balance (vegan) natural spreads (out of all oils) with some spices. And we made tea but it’s hawwt.
Dessert is going to be dairy free brownies with coconut milk ice cream and dairy free chocolate sauce. And banana slices for me.
Best friend is staying over tonight so we made dinner and it’s her fault we’re making a real nice dessert haha. Yum.

My grocery shopping lately has mostly been clif/luna bars, almond milk, bananas, cereal, and… I don’t even know what. So today I decided to stock up on da goods. Lots of strawberries, juice, almond milk, bananas, cantaloupe, zucchini, spinach, bread, lots of tomatoes, grapes, frozen fruits, quinoa, pasta sauce, brownie mix, dairy free chocolate syrup, coconut milk ice cream, and possibly a few other things I can’t remember.
Half of my lunch from about 2 weeks ago. Tofurkey sandwich on whole grain with soy cheese, mustard, spinach and tomato.
Alright Friends, I have always had bad luck making pretzels. But THIS recipe, seriously, is awesome. I just made them and they are so tasty. My pretzel shaped ones turned into big pretzel shaped blobs…but the ones that I made into sticks look right. Regardless of looks, the taste is really really great!
Auntie Anne’s Pretzels: Copycat Recipe
Makes 12 Adapted from Food Network
2 cups milk
1 1/2 tablespoons (2 packets) active dry yeast
6 tablespoons brown sugar
4 tablespoons butter, melted
4 1/2 cups flour
2 teaspoons fine salt
1/3 cup baking soda
3 cups warm water
Coarse salt
8 tablespoons butter, melted in a shallow dish
Warm up the milk in the microwave or on the stove for just about one and a half minutes. It should be about 110º. If it’s too hot it will kill the yeast. You should be able to comfortably keep your finger in it. Stir in the yeast and let it sit for about 3 minutes. Add the butter and sugar. Add the flour about 1 cup at a time and the add the fine salt. Kneed for about 10 minutes with a stand mixer, or by hand. Put it in a greased bowl and cover with greased cling wrap. Let rise for 1 hour in a moist, warm place until doubled in size. Preheat the oven to 450º. Punch down dough and divide into 12 lumps (I like to divide it in half, then divide each half into three, and then divide each remaining one in half again). Roll them all out as thin as you can. Combine the warm water and baking soda in a wide bowl. Form the dough into pretzel shapes, then dip in the baking soda water. Place on a greased baking sheet and sprinkle with coarse salt. Bake for about 7-11 minutes or until browned. Dip each in the melted butter while hot. Serve with cheese sauce.
Vegan chocolate fudge brownies! This is the recipe we used and I used apple sauce instead of banana, almond milk instead of water, and added the whole bag of chocolate chips because yolo. SO GOOD. I will take a photo of em tomorrow in the light. But downed with a glass of cold almond milk, ugh so good. So I wanna share the recipe (:

Today’s lunch. Multi grain bread, strawberry jelly, maple almond butter, and strawberries!
Vegan grilled cheese tofurkey sandwich!
- Earth Balance natural spreads butter
- Daiya cheddar cheese
- Organic 12-grain Omega-3 bread (use any kind you want)
- 1/4th an avocado
- 1 tomato
- Fresh Spinach
Butter one side of both pieces of bread, add buttered side of one piece onto hot pan. Add cheese (as much as you’d like) and add tofurkey onto the cheese. As soon as the bottom is cooked, take it off and put the other piece on the pan while you add the tomato, avocado, spinach, and/or any other toppings of your choice to the piece with cheese. Add the piece of bread from the pan onto the sandwich and cut if desired. Add cheese to both sides of bread if you’d like.
This was dinner last night. Tac-o’s! (If you understand that reference, I love you and let’s be friends). Boca ‘meat’, beans, lettuce (sadly not spinach but that’s okay), tomato, avocado, Daiya vegan cheese, and salsa/hot sauce. I was going to have a 4th but I ate vegan jerky and 3 vegan cookies right before dinner, and had downed two big glasses of water by the time I’d finished all that food. And then I ate another cookie right after dinner, lol. I shouldn’t have bought those, eating that many gave me a red spot on my face.
And for breakfast this morning I had a few slices of cantaloupe, a few strawberries, vanilla soygurt, and a Snickers energy bar (posting those in a minute) because I couldn’t pull myself away from my book last night and got around 6 hours of sleep before my drivers license test (you can read about how well I did on that on my personal blog but it’s not that exciting).
Hickory smoked tofurkey sandwich on organic 12-grain omega-3 bread, with avocado, tomato, spinach, and mustard.
I got into coffee, I can get into tea (you know, that’s not iced and full of sugar).
