RECIPE: Restaurant Style Quesadillas

Do you ever just crave a food and all you can think about is getting home to make it? Well that was me this week. I was craving a restaurant style quesadilla, but didn't want to go out to a restaurant. Quesadillas are pretty big in my family, they can be a whole meal. if you pack it full with veggies and protein. This is a quick and easy meal that will leave you full and satisfied.

Breakfast Break 3: Toast Edition

I have a love affair with toast. Honestly think I could eat it for breakfast everyday with a different topping on it. You can make it sweet with honey and butter or hearty with mustard and turkey. All around a very versatile breakfast choice. These are my two favorite ways to eat whole wheat toast in the morning (or in the afternoon as a snack.)

First up is toast with cream cheese and mashed avocado. Everyone knows how much I am in love with avocado. I could put it on anything, and when it comes to breakfast, it's a fantastic choice. Seasoned with a bit of black pepper, Himalayan pink salt, and a dash of lemon juice, this quick breakfast is full of vitamins too.

Coming in a close second is this toast topping. Hummus is one of my all time favorite snacks to have with carrots. It can always make me feel fuller longer, especially when eaten on toast. I like to have a little bit of a kick in my hummus so I will usually mix in a few sprinkles of cayenne pepper before spreading it onto my toast.

Those are my two favorite toast breakfasts/snacks. Let me know if you try these out and if you like them!

Recipe: Sweet Corn & Squash Fritters

I'm always on the hunt for vegetarian recipes that are delicious and when I found this one I was so excited to try it. Now I didn't stick exactly to the recipe. I believe in changing it up to make it your own which is exactly what I did.

Breakfast Break

You hear it all the time "Breakfast is the most important meal of the day." But most of us don't have time to make a huge breakfast that will satisfy us until lunch. I've decided to start posting about easy and quick breakfast ideas that won't take too long in the morning and will keep you satisfied.

This morning I was craving avocado (more than usual because I always want avo) so I scooped a half of an avocado into a bowl and smashed it up. For seasoning, I used 1/2 teaspoon of lemon juice, black pepper, pink Himalayan salt, garlic powder, and a ton of cayenne pepper. Then I toasted half of a bagel to spread my avocado mixture on. Of course I had to have my daily cup of coffee with unsweetened almond milk. I was so pleased with the taste and how filling it was. Plus the avocado provides a lot of essentials vitamins and nutrients that your body needs.
