Quick and easy breakfasts are hard to come by in my house this week. I may just have to break down and go to the grocery store.
This morning, I hurriedly threw together an overly ripe banana (perfect for the freezer!) with some PB and sweet potato butter on an Ezekiel wrap.
Then there was coffee. 🙂
I sometimes start drinking my coffee while I’m putting my make up on in the bathroom before breakfast. However, I would never take a cup of anything in a public restroom. I often set my thermos on the floor outside the restroom when I’m making a trip to fill up my water bottle and visit the ladies’ room at work. But yet, I have no qualms with drinking coffee in my bathroom at home. Is that strange?
I made my lunch just before bed last night, which explains the dark lighting. With the cupboard practically bare, I’m getting extremely creative to find a good lunch. This was so easy, simple, and delicious!
Besides an orange I also made a rice bowl.
I ate most of my rice bowl by spooning it onto roasted seaweed snacks from TJ’s. Some people hate the taste of seaweed (like Brad), but I personally love it! It’s wonderfully salty. 🙂
I made my rice bowl using:
1/2 cup brown rice
1/2 cup frozen shelled edamame
1/3 cup egg white
handful of spinach (~1 loosley packed cup)
big splash of soy sauce (~2-3 Tbsp.)
small splash of toasted seasame oil (~1/2-1 tsp.)
I cooked my brown rice in 1 cup of water in my Pampered Chef microwaveable bowl for 10 minutes total, stirring at the half way point. I also microwaved the edamame for about 1 minute. Then I microwaved the egg white in a ramekin. Last, I threw everything together along with the sesame oil and the soy sauce, and tossed it together. When I microwaved it for a minute at work, the spinach wilted.
So delcious and easy in a pinch!
My schedule is full of meetings today, which have actually been very interesting. Interesting meetings are definitely hard to come by.
I have busy but fun evening planned. Looks like Rascal is going to be home alone again tonight, poor thing.
