A DAY IN OUR PLANT BASED LIFE | FEBRUARY 2019

In January I shared what we eat in a typical day following a plant based diet. I thought I would share what another day in February looks like for us.


BREAKFAST | February has been another month with lots of smoothies or for me a big papaya. This morning I enjoyed the simplicity and delight of just eating a papaya for breakfast. There is minimal effort and clean up which is awesome if we need to get somewhere fast.
More often though we all enjoy a smoothie. Daniel makes his with frozen blueberries and cherries, bananas, oats, spinach, and cocoa powder. Basically he has perfected it and it has become his go to smoothie on any given morning. I love my smoothie with oranges, cilantro, banana, frozen mango, and frozen blueberries. It is so tasty. Right now I love being in a habit and just eating the same kind of smoothie each day.


LUNCH | Recently at lunch time I have been into making juices for the family. We have been loving a carrot orange juice and today we tried a cotton candy juice from FullyRawKristina which was fun for a change. I also had a salad for lunch as well, just some greens with cherry tomatoes and mini bell peppers plus a celery tahini dressing. We had some leftover chili from last night so Daniel and Kennedy were set for their lunch as well.

DINNER | Tonight we had one of our favorite soups of all time - Romesco Soup from Minimalist Baker. It is delicious and really simple to put together. We had avocado toast on the side and were all satisfied at the end of the night.

There you go. Another day in our plant based life. Again it doesn't seem like much, but we just eat until we are full.

February has been pretty similar to January since we are still in the middle of winter, but I am excited to see what new things become a staple in our pantry as we get closer to the spring months. And I'm always looking forward to summer when there is an abundance of fresh fruit and warm weather. Until next time I hope you enjoyed this glimpse into a day in our plant based life!
