Salt & Humor

It has been a while since I have had cold cereal.  Recently I tried some Kellogg’s, Fiber Plus cereal, as part of the Foodbuzz Tastemaker Program. I tried both and prefer the cinnamon oat crunch. Jason, on the other hand, loved the berry yogurt crunch.  The best part for me, is the amount of fiber [...]

Having tacos for dinner is like celebrating your Birthday or a Holiday.  Or, at least that is what it feels like in our house.  What is your favorite dinner?  ”Tacos.”  What was served at your wedding?  ”Tacos.”  What do you always eat on your Birthday?  ”Tacos.” You see, I just love tacos!  What makes taco [...]

I will start with the fish tacos.  Each time I make fish tacos, I swear it turns out different. This time we thought we would fry the tilapia.  Ehhh, I think I am over tilapia.  The last couple of times I have had it, it seems to have a weird flavor to me.  I think [...]

I haven’t met a hummus I didn’t love. Last weekend I made avocado-hummus. Those were baby avocados that I got at the local produce store near my house.  They were 4/$1, how cute is that! I let the hummus blend in the food processor for longer than usual.  It resulted in creamier hummus.  Or maybe [...]

How is it possible that Sundays seem to go by the fastest out of all days is the week!! That is what mine is doing today, anyways. I did make some tasty muffins this morning though. In the spirit of Fruit Not Fat; applesauce has replaced the butter. Banana Nut Muffins 3 ripe bananas 1/4 [...]

I don’t have any fun photos of yummy eats to share with you tonight.  I do have a giveaway though. Does that work? Eats just weren’t photo worthy enough. I had overnight oats and coffee for breakfast, leftover falafel and salad for lunch, then warmed up a bean and rice burrito at work before I left. [...]

That is what Jillian Michaels told me tonight when I made my best efforts during Yoga Meltdown! HA! That was hard to convince myself through rotating side planks!!! Can I be honest and say, “I don’t like those!!” Overall, I really liked the new workout though. Just no plank anything for me! Thanks for asking. [...]

I actually woke up early enough to make juice before work on Thursday. One of my favorite juices would be 1 lemon, 1 lime, 1 orange and 1 grapefruit.  I was lucky enough to find some meyer lemons at the store the other day.  This was my first time having one.  Loved them! This morning’s [...]

Happy Wednesday! I got my workout in tonight, so all is well. Jason got me a Polar heart rate monitor for my birthday and it came in the mail last night.   Tonight was my first chance to use it.  I programmed it with all my information and set it for exercise mode.  It seemed [...]

Best news in a while! I finally geared up and got to the gym yesterday.  I admit, it has been since before Christmas that I was last there. I enjoy my home workouts and feel I get a good workout.  I just think it’s nice to balance the two.  Since it has been about a [...]

Curry is such a vague dish.  So many kinds and so many different ways to have it.  I made veggie curry tonight and each time I make it, I swear it turns out different.  I guess part of that might depend on what kind of vegetables you have on hand or what kind of meat [...]

Skipped the coffee this morning and replaced it with some juice.  I swear, it gives you the same feeling, only better. That is really a monster carrot! They are Italian carrots-cool huh. I made oats before my workout so they would be ready after. I have really been enjoying making overnight oats (no-cook), this was [...]
