For breakfast today I had quinoa flakes made with banana. I’ve never tried them with banana before because when I tried making oatmeal with banana a couple months ago, I really didn’t like the taste.
But oh what I have been missing! Quinoa flakes with banana tastes so good! And it smells divine while cooking. [...]

Last night I had my first real meal – something soft and easy to chew: Amy’s Indian Mattar Tofu (pardon the picture – this meal is not photogenic. )
I’ve had this frozen meal once before. It’s not spicy, which is just how my tummy likes it. Last night it took me thirty minutes to [...]

A Liquid Diet
Posted by: Amanda on: July 28, 2008
Here’s what I’ve been eating on my liquid diet:
My mom went back to Fraiche and got me a pint of their soy frozen yogurt! I love my mommy.
Jello
Soy chocolate pudding – surprisingly delicious. I’ve tried this brand of soy pudding in their vanilla flavor and found it too sickly sweet. But the chocolate [...]
Vanilla Coconut Shake
Posted by: Amanda on: July 25, 2008
This morning my mommy made a smoothie for me out of my new cookbook, Ani’s Raw Food Kitchen.
This is the vanilla coconut shake on page 50.
She halved the recipe for me, since it says it makes 4 servings, and I wasn’t sure if I would like it or not.
The verdict? I liked the flavor of [...]

This was the last real breakfast I had before going to the dentist:
Oatmeal made with oats, soymilk, and ground flaxseed topped with a banana and part of a maple almond crunch granola plank
It was dee-licious! Since these granola planks are becoming so popular with food bloggers lately, I decided I just had to try [...]

The day before I had my wisdom tooth taken out, my mom and I went on a fun shopping trip to Whole Foods. That just figures, doesn’t it? We got a whole bunch of yummy things, and now I have to wait at least a week before having them!
Well, here’s some of what we [...]
Not Again

[This is a cross post from my other blog.]
On Wednesday this week I had to have yet ANOTHER wisdom tooth removed. Owww! Did we not just do this?? (I would have said “didnt” at the beginning of that sentence but apparently the apostrophe key is not working on my keyboard. Great. Time to upgrade to [...]
Happy Monday
Posted by: Amanda on: July 21, 2008
Good morning and happy Monday! It’s an especially happy Monday for me, because I don’t have to work today! My schedule got switched around this week, so I don’t have to go in till Thursday. Woohoo. I love starting a new week out this way.
This morning I got up at 6:15. My poor mommy has [...]
Raw Food Cooking
Posted by: Amanda on: July 18, 2008
I bought a new cookbook at Borders this past week: Ani’s Raw Food Kitchen by Ani Phyo. I have to say, I’m intrigued by the idea of eating more raw foods for health, energy, and mental clarity. I’ve noticed that I feel most inspired with writing ideas after I’ve eaten healthy foods. So I’m excited [...]
