Peanut Butter Banana Toast

Hey there pals. As you remember, we are making an effort to stick to a healthy eating plan which means having a nutritious (but tasty!) lunch every day. We've promised to fill you in when we come across a great and easy idea for lunch, since it seems like quite a few of you are into the healthy/easy/yummy idea, too! 


This one is as easy as it gets. Inspired by Carrots N' Cake's standard breakfast, behold: 

A toasted slice of multigrain bread (this is Barowsky's 12 grain), with a little (1-2 tsp.) sunflower butter and a sliced half banana. Throw some cut up fruit and veggies on the side, and this is as easy as pie but really yummy and filling. I usually eat a slice of turkey or cheese alongside for some protein! 

Yum! 

Lentil Lovin'

I mentioned before that I'd be sharing some ideas for thrifty and healthy lunches with you. Here's another simple but tasty option that can feed you for a whole week: lentils!


*I apologize in advance for the not-nice photos. Our nice camera was charging, so I snapped these with my cell phone!


You can literally adapt lentils for any taste- I love 'em with some curry spices, sriracha and crispy, chopped veggies. 

Whip up some vinaigrette and serve with a poached egg over baby greens for a light and refreshing breakfast. Seriously- try it! This breakfast makes my WHOLE day better. 

Sprinkle on some cumin, chili powder and paprika. Add in diced tomatoes, jalapeno, cilantro and tuck it in to a tortilla for a yummy and filling lunch or dinner that you can make in just a few minutes. 

Basic Lentils


Take a cup of lentils, pick through for any rocks and rinse in a fine sieve. 

Pour the lentils into the bottom of a sauce pot and cover with two inches of cold water.

Bring to a boil, cover and reduce to a simmer. Cook for about 20 minutes, or until your lentils are completely tender. 

What do you do with lentils? Are you a lentil lover like us?? 

Tiny Holidays: Thanksgiving Wrap Up

Oh, hello. Didn't see you there from the haze of our food comas. We're finally able to waddle over to Tiny Blogging HQ to update you on our Thanksgiving feast, which was quite wonderful from all accounts. We enjoyed an afternoon of food and festivity with Mike's familia, including his absolutely adorable 90 year old Nana who continues to be the life of the party.

Here she is, pulling off leopard print better than anyone I know. And here is Mike, also trying leopard but not so successful.
