I’ve had more energy today which is good, cause I spent A LOT of time cooking.
Breakfast was poached eggs, potatoes, and avocado with blackberries. I got to use my cute little poach pods.
Poach Pods
Place in boiling water for 3-4 minutes
The runny yolks were great for the dry potatoes.
Yummy poached egg goodness
Lunch was dinner leftovers. It was nice to get a break from salad.
After work I had to head to New Leaf Market, the local co-op grocery store to pick up some weirdo ingredients that I couldn’t find at Publix. I always walk into New Leaf like I know what I’m doing, when in reality I usually don’t know where anything is. Especially not the coconut aminos. I had to google to figure what the heck that was. It’s basically a soy sauce substitute.

Drew got a kick out of the ingredients. “Sun dried sea salt? That’s basically evaporated sea water.”
Dinner was mango chicken with coconut cauliflower rice. Time consuming, but pretty good. The mango sauce was yummy and cauliflower rice isn’t too bad. Drew finished his plate, so it couldn’t have been that bad. He commented after dinner, “I’m still alive…”
That’s not seasoning on the cauliflower rice… it’s burnt cauliflower. Lovely mesquite flavoring.
I have enjoyed cooking from scratch. It does take more time but I enjoy the process.
So. Many. Dishes.
