Day 6 - All Meals


DAY 6
Breakfast: Blueberry Buckwheat Pancakes & Breakfast Homefries

Again, breakfast was more like early lunch since I got a late start on eating. Therefore, I killed the rest of the Breakfast Homefries I made yesterday and used up the rest of my Blueberry Buckwheat Pancake batter.

Since "brunch" was so hearty and filling, I only snacked on a couple bites of this Asian Pasta Salad I made with the leftover whole wheat noodles from the other day. I just threw together noodles, red cabbage, onions (of course), sliced almonds, raisins, chopped apricots, a dash of sesame oil to give it some Asian flair, seasoned rice vinegar, agave nectar, light sea salt and ground white pepper. This little recipe of mine is simple and would be good as a picnic or potluck dish!


DAY 6
Dinner: Creamy Broccoli Soup & Hoppin' John Salad

Glad the salad is finally gone because it was my least favorite of all the dishes I have made thus far. The Creamy Broccoli Soup on the other hand was magnificent! I actually made a large batch last week, and froze it in thirds. I placed one container of the soup in the fridge yesterday morning in preparation for today's dinner. This soup was creamy, yet light. I love the flavor the basil lent to the soup...very different. While the recipe called for a Sesame Seasoning, I was unable to make it since I have not stocked up on nutritional yeast yet. I cannot wait to keep thawing and eating my broccoli soup - YUM!
