Good morning and happy weekend!
Last night was full of school work and catching up with my sister. We’re thinking of going to visit her and Ross’ grandmother in Alabama over Memorial Day weekend and it can’t come soon enough!
Dinner was from Moe’s – I got my usual of a Big Moo (junior burrito) streaker (no tortilla) with black beans, light rice, lettuce, salsa, guacamole, black olives, light cilantro and I squeezed lime juice over it when I got home. Love this fast, easy and healthy option!
Last night was when I finally made a vegan dessert that has been on my mind for quite some time – Vegan S’mores Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars.
Yes they were truly as awesome as they sound! The recipe is really straight forward, too. Later today I’ll make a recipe page for it, but basically you just need chocolate chip cookie dough (I used my secret vegan chocolate chip cookie recipe) and top with 1/3 cup of vegan marshmallows, 1/3 cup vegan dark chocolate chips and a scant 1/4 cup of graham crackers crumbs. So good! But another instance of just because it’s vegan does not mean it’s healthy – these are vegan, but decadent and definitely occasional treats!
Breakfast today was quite healthy, too – Savory Oats!
Oats cooked with water and chia seeds (I made a big batch for Ross and I, and I took probably 1/3 cup cooked) that I added zucchini, heirloom tomatoes, spinach, Canadian bacon, garlic hummus, and hot sauce to. So good!
Off to conquer my Saturday! I have a good mix of fun, work, relaxation and activity planned.
Catch ya later!


all i can say…. yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
I want one of these soooo badly. Yum!
Your cookie bars look so delicous and the savory oats. Yum!!
Okay, all of those eats seriously made my mouth water
And I’m once again reminded that I have yet to make savory oats! Must get on that stat.
I love how you’re combining your new, non-vegan lifestyle with vegan recipes. I’m very big on NOT labeling myself, yet I love trying new things – be it vegan, raw, etc. And clearly those S’mores cookie bars need to be on that list!
Love me some savory oats…and smores.
I love anything Smores. That looks so good!
wow i totally want those savory oats…i love the combo of flavors in there!
I like calling the burrito a streaker instead of “naked” I always feel so weird asking for a naked burrito
Vegan s’mores look amazing and I see them making an appearance in my kitchen sometime soon!
