I thinned our baby beets and cleared much of the purslane, but grabbed some choice clusters to pack into our tacos later.

So this salad would not be Whole30 compliant if I were not adapting it for vegetarian. Legumes are off the list for Whole30 if you’re a meat-eater, but I use legumes a little bit, and since peanuts are a legume, they are technically off the menu. That said, I have peanut powder which is super […]
Every Sunday is prep day at home, and every Sunday we make a big soup that will carry us through the week. Most of the time, it is what we call “Lasagne” soup. Whole30 restricts grains and dairy, so basically Lasagne soup is really just Tomato vegetable soup, but hey: whatever. We use thinly sliced […]
My mood today is much improved. I’m starting to feel more like my regular self – still a little tired, but not too much. I think this is day 6. I’m so glad I had opportunity to go visit with Eve in her new apartment today. It’s so cute! I truly wish we had more […]

Unloaded “Baked” Potato
Round two, Day 4? I don’t even know, tbh. We’re in that weird space where we feel kind of blah. This is to be expected, as the Whole30 Timeline does predict rather accurately. The first time we did Whole30 was in January, so when I had a sniffly nose and congested head, I just chalked […]
We’re doing our second round of Vegetarian Whole30, and we’re super excited about it. Justin made a beautiful Jackfruit & Tofu Tikka Masala. He used this recipe, except he didn’t really follow it. Instead of cream, he used cashew milk, and he omitted the butter and honey, and added cubed potatoes. When we cook up […]

Feeling Juicy!
Im feeling much better today. I didn’t risk it by getting up unnecessarily early, of course; had coffee in bed and dreamed of fresh juice. I thought I’d drop into Benefit Juice Bar on my way ho me from yoga, but logistics disagreed.
Anybody who really knows me, knows how much I dislike wasting things, so when I have opportunity to use up the last bits of stuff into new things, I’m all over it. For breakfast today, we had Justin’s famous oatmeal and black coffee. Last night, though, we had an after-dinner coffee, so when Justin went […]

Mediterranean Spread
So this happened. Pita Bread (yield 8) 2T active dry yeast 1/2t sugar 1C lukewarm water let proof, then mix with 310g flour 1t salt 2T olive oil (optional) knead until smooth; let rise to double, divide into eight pieces, roll flat into a circle and bake on a heated stone or cast iron at 475F […]
I’m falling way behind, folks, but I’m in for the month! I’m not going to blog the repeats that we eat because we tend to eat the same things over and over; however, this sandwich – while it is a relative staple on our lunch menu – was extraordinary and worth blogging about. Justin picks up these great rolls […]
Just about the only thing I think we really miss having is egg. As luck would have it, there is this amazing spice called Kala Namak and it tastes just like hardboiled egg yolk. Kala Namak is also called Black Salt, Indian Black Salt, or Himalayan Black Salt. You should be able to find this […]

Coffee Date with Lovey
Yeah, he’s cute and all, but there are pastries to be had. And mama ain’t foolin’. Beautiful, delicious, amazing vegan pastries. But, I’m cheap, and Wildflour is not, so I always buy their “day old” cookies, 3 for $5, which is still kind of steep, but definitely more my style. So my favorite cookie is […]
Justin, reporting in. Yesterday’s breakfast: Oatmeal with banana. Yesterday’s lunch: Leftover chickpea “egg” salad wrap with chips. By mid-afternoon Keri wasn’t feeling well and skipped dinner. I had a repeat of the Garden Wrap for my dinner. Keri still wasn’t feeling well this morning when we I had our Oatmeal again. For lunch, I had the […]

Lazy Sundays
So last night we made our breakfast beans, and we pretty much just snacked on them all day until we both were so full of beans that we had to actually remove them from our sight (put them away) so we wouldn’t continue. It was a very chill day; we were entirely domestic: cleaning the […]
We don’t have anything terribly new to report: we had leftovers all day. For breakfast we had our stand-by tofu, beans & potato burrito; for lunch we had the last of the tacos; for dinner I had the last of the spaghetti sauce (I went to a pasta-dinner fundraiser for a friend’s niece, and was […]
