Breakfast: While we are in California, we are having Oats every day for breakfast. What keeps it interesting is changing up the fruit, nuts and seeds we add to the Rolled Oats each day. Today’s toppings included Strawberries, Apples, Pecans, Raisins and Chia Seeds.
Lunch: I was in the mood for a Chopped Salad and fortunately, for me, in the mood for chopping. I took some Lacinato Kale, removed the stems, rolled up the leaves and cut them in thin ribbons, chiffonade-style. Then I chopped up the stems in tiny bits. I usually put them in my green juice, but we are not juicing since we are away from home and I didn’t want to waste them. I thought they would act like chopped celery, juicy and crunchy. Added to the mix were frozen corn, cooked millet, kalamata olives, chives from my friend Mike’s garden, avocado, pecans and lemon juice.
Evening: We skipped dinner and later watched a disappointing Netflix film (not worth mentioning) with a big bowl of air-pop.
