Quinoa for breakfast

Shani decided to go back on the Clean Program to try and get back some much needed energy.  In theory, this is accomplished by cutting out a whole ton of foods. (As if I didn’t have a hard enough time cooking for this girl!) This means I’m basically on the Clean Program as well.  (Though […]

I’ve been making this little omelette for myself all week and thought I would share!  I opted for a no cheese version as I’m trying to be good with the start of the new year and all.  And honestly, I don’t miss it one bit.  This is a very smooth tasting omelette, if that makes […]

Comments Off on The Weekend Classic or My Eggy Claim To Fame

So yesterday for breakfast I was a little lazy, even though one of the unwritten rules of our relationship is that the weekend mornings need to be filled with the smells of eggs and bacon and whatever else I’m inclined to do. (Even when a day of rock climbing is planned, Shani needs her eggs!) […]
