Sometimes, I cook a bunch of bacon, then cook bread cubes in the leftover bacon grease, then cook brussels sprouts in more bacon grease, then call it dinner. Oops?
Hey guys! How’s your week going? After basically hibernating for the first week of January due to insanely freezing temps, I’ve resumed my usual levels of walking around and it feels surprisingly great! It’s a balmy 15°F after all – totally do-able, right? (Can you even believe I was born in Los Angeles?) Hope you’re keeping warm and braving the winter wherever you are. Here are this week’s Foodie Favorites!
I want to eat this entire pan of oatmeal cookie baked oatmeal. I love baked oatmeal, and this version looks so homey, comforting, and flavorful!
These spaghetti Bolognese garlic bread boats are basically the only thing I want to eat until it gets warm out again. Obviously the only way to make carbs better is adding more carbs. It’s science!
Indian food is one of my absolute favorite cuisines, but I usually leave the prep to the pros at our favorite Indian restaurants. However, one of my foodie resolutions this year (yes, I have multiple) is to make more “ethnic” foods, foods that I have to go out of my comfort zone to make. I had excellent success with this squash lentil curry, and I think this red dahl has to be next. It just looks so freakin’ good, right? If that’s not comfort, I don’t know what is!
These vegan banana blueberry muffins are calling my name. I love the idea of having a quick and easy healthy breakfast option in the freezer, and these muffins look fantastic! Banana-blueberry is a flavor combo that never fails in my book.
I am always on the lookout for cool new smoothie recipes for my post-workout breakfast, and I am totally intrigued by this avocado, pineapple, and banana smoothie. I’ve never tried avocado in smoothies, but how can it be bad, right?!
Hope you enjoyed this week’s Foodie Favorites! What bites are YOU loving this week? Tell me, tell me, as always! XO!
