My favorite breakfast as of lately must be crunchy, cold and sweet. Counting my blessings that this cereal delivered all three things and fortunately my cravings were satisfied! But what is that little lovely on the clock plate you ask?
365 Honey Oats and Flakes Cereal with Hemp Milk and an Banana Stuffed Vanilla Cream Burrito with Cinnamon and Sunflower Seed Butter
Yes you heard me correctly, a banana stuffed vanilla cream burrito! My kind of breakfast burrito. A velvety smooth folded vanilla "tortilla" stuffed with the "veggies" of warm bananas, the "sour cream" of whipped cream and "salsa" of sunflower butter. And whats all of that without spice...cinnamon that is!
How did I forget to share this with you all? Seems like I've been dancing around the idea for a bit. Definitely an oldie but a goodie. I suppose I never posted this recipe on the blog because these use to be consumed as an dessert when I needed a sweet treat but also a protein fix. Obviously it was destined to be a part of breakfast! I've tried making them with different fruits, nut butters and my favorite..with raspberry jam and chocolate chips. So much left up to the imagination..sorta like oats! Mmmm. Recipe here!
Sunday night instead of going out for Greek or Indian we decided to try a new place out that was known for their healthy whole wheat vegetarian pizzas and roasted veggie salads...man was I excited! Beyond words, the best goat cheese pizza I've ever had and the roasted harvest salad was to die for. Sadly I brought no camera but I have leftovers to prove it and some gifts my papa surprised me with that night.
Now who has a dad that loves trying new healthy restaurants, shops at 10 pm for coconut ice cream and stocks up my supply of kabochas just because there was only three left and he knew they were going out of season. Mine! Best papa ever! And look at that pizza...drool. Second day thin crust cold pizza is probably up there with my favorite meals ever. Definitely going back!
Without being a downer there are a few things that have been bothering me that I must address. I've been feeling lately that I've gotten into a rut with my food choices and my photography. While I have been spending time with my new shop, I feel my blog and food choices have been getting a little routine. Pancakes one day...cereal the next. Shot on the counter..shot on the wood chopping block. I know its normal but for me I have the time to continue to be more creative, why settle? I kinda miss the days when my creativity was bursting as I awoke every morning rushing to the kitchen. So that being said I really want to try new styles, flavors, textures for breakfast and I'm opening it up to all of you. Everyday I learn something new on all our inspiring blogs. Have any breakfast ideas that are your all time favorite? Family breakfast recipes? Anything you'd like to see up on my blog? This includes fashion posts or daily lifestyle posts. Send me an email at sleepdreamdress@yahoo.com and I will make it! Starting next Monday its all about reader's choice..if you send it in over the weekend and I drool over the recipe, you may just see it up for breakfast the next morning. Only thing I ask is that its vegetarian :) Too fun!
Just updated my Etsy and the big giveaway is tomorrow! Off to some pilates, jean shopping and business card making. I'd love to know....do you get in routines? Are you going to participate in reader's choice week? xoxo
Positivity Note Jan 12 2010: Being called a strong young women was the best compliment I've ever received. I had a flashback of getting french fries and dipping them in chocolate shakes after dance class with my best friend...one day I hope to relive that again. The reality of my upcoming age reminds me of what the task at hand is right now...get healthy!
