Lonely Sprouts

Good evening, all. Due to a particularly trying chemistry homework assignment, I don’t have much time or energy to chat tonight. However, before showing you the eats of the day, I thought I would share with you a quote I heard today from a fellow student’s presentation:

“Rather than eat my sprouts alone, It would be better for me to share a pizza with some friends.”

Amen to that.

No pizza was on the menu today, but there were some noteworthy eats nonetheless.

First up was an Ellie recipe, a Mango Lassi.

My tweaks:

-I used frozen mango instead of fresh for extra froth…and for the sake of my wallet.

-I used Greek yogurt instead of regular plain yogurt.

-I used agave nectar instead of honey.

While it made for a refreshing breakfast, this Mango Lassi was a bit of a snooze-fest. Next time, I am so adding coconut milk.

Here’s the recipe, folks: Mango Lassi

For lunch, I packed an unassembled Ginger Peanut Tofu Salad.

Tonight’s evening meal featured my beloved veggie plate trio: spaghetti squash, black beans, & roasted veg.

Alright, I am off to shrug off my chemistry woes and hop in bed.

   I spend a lot of time eating sprouts solo, and it makes me very happy indeed. But that’s not the ESSENCE of the quote, now is it? Great message

   Hope you got in a good night of sleep! Bummer that the smoothie was a bit boring- I bet the coconut milk will jazz it up. Ow- I haven’t made spaghetti squash in forever. Thank you for the reminder
