Welcome to Friday Photos, a weekly feature here on Celiac in the City — you can read how it all started by clicking HERE.
This week was a whirlwind… where did the time go?
The plan for the weekend was to jet out to Denver, home of my sweet little Valentine. (D-town is kind of a regular on CITC, in case you missed it you can read about gluten-free in Denver here or here.)
But plans changed and it left my weekend pretty wide open, so I’m going to finish up week 6 of the Couch to 5k, run around doing errands for my celiac sister’s shower (all GF of course) next weekend, and head out to the farm tonight for a Pinterest party — just me, Molly and Q. (who has also become a regular around here.)
But before I get moving — here is the week in review.
*********************************************************************************************************************
The mystery of the afternoon snack was finally solved over on Facebook.
Kohlrabi — sprinkled with a little Penzeys seasonings.
Still on a tea kick.
SPORTea — served at The Grind at UWM, Alterra, or on-the-cheap at home.
More recipe testing for Carrie’s (Ginger Lemon Girl) new slow cooker cookbook. (seriously… pre-order it)
Almond & Dried Cherry Granola alongside her Chunky Applesauce
Because of leftovers – like tasty enchiladas from Cocina DeLeon – and my trip to the market for soup, we did more warming up than actual cooking this week, which was a good thing since our week was loaded with hair cuts, dentist appointments, test driving cars and one sick husband. But I still make time for a good breakfast, no matter what.
Fried egg sandwich loaded up with spinach, on Ancient Grain from Molly’s Gluten-Free Bakery
Brown rice cakes are sometimes my vehicle for spreads I love. (like hummus, peanut butter or tuna)
Farm fresh hard boiled egg w/ roasted red pepper hummus rice cake
And sometimes there is dinner at my desk — working until 9:30 one night a week makes for some serious planning to have a hearty lunch and dinner packed.
Zesty Corn Tortilla w/ chiles, cilantro and lime from Wisconsin Soup Company
There you have it — my week. What about yours… any new recipes you tried this week that we should know about? Tell us about it! (after seeing 53 comments over on the FB discussion about kohlrabi — and a great little discussion going on this morning about eating paleo — I’m digging the comments and hoping to see more here on the blog!)
Happy day!
