Let's start off with Tuesday's Eats:
Green Monster.-frozen pineapple
-water
-Sun Warrior Vanilla Protein
-baby spinach
With a bowl of Cereal and Chocolate Abu drizzle.
Gena's Amazing Guacamole recipe! Sans tomatoes although next time I might add them. I used the toast to scoop it up with the baby spinach. It was very messy but oh so delicious!
Rutabega Fries with ketchup for dipping and Pumpkin Seed Butter. I didn't use the nut butter for dipping, I just ate it on the side for some healthy fats. =)-baby spinach
-broccoli
-corn
-red bell pepper
-TJ's Pineapple Salsa
-Zukay Carrot Ginger Dressing

As my little brothers and I sat down to watch Moulin Rouge (LOVE THIS MOVIE, I could watch it over and over), I needed a snack. I grabbed some Newman's Own Organics Super Dark Chocolate and made...
S'mores! Actually they were mini-s'mores made with Newman's Own Organics Alphabet Cinnamon Graham Crackers, Dark Chocolate, and Dandies Vegan Marshmallows. I made a bunch of them and we gobbled them all up. Everyone thought they were delicious and I loved how the dark chocolate was smooth with no bitter taste to it. The graham crackers were also amazing, I could eat handfuls of those things! So sweet with the perfect hint of cinnamon...my kind of cracker! Oh and before you ask why my little brothers would be watching such a racy movie, they love all the singing! I was watching it on TV once and the 4 year old just came up was enthralled by the whole thing.

Super Charge-Me Cookies topped with Naturally Nutty Vanilla Almond Butter. I never thought such a small meal could fill me up (I'm such a volume eater) but this meal did!
Returning from the Farmer's Market, I snacked on this tiny Apricot. They are getting some good stuff now (tons more produce is in season) and I'm getting great deals on the stuff.
Its hard to see but there are some Snobby Joes (V'Con) under there. I wanted to eat it more as a chili and it was still just as amazing. Toppings included baby spinach, avocado, and faux-zekiel toast.
I sampled some new mints today. Its always hard for me to find good mints because they all have such gross ingredients in them. I was excited when I saw that these contained 5 real ingredients! They tasted really good too. I mean, you can't really judge mints on flavor because they all taste the same but I believe they tasted better because they are better for me.
I wanted a simple dinner tonight so I stuck with some favorites of mine. Rutabega Fries (with ketchup) and 1/2 an avocado. Yum.

Gena's guacamole = the best out there. Period.
Cute s'more treats!!
Guac + tomatoes is the best!
I still have to try your rutabega fries. Yum yum.
Yay for healthy fats :) I'm trying to have more.
I've had the cinnamon mints! Really good.
Happy Weds!
yay for rutabega fries! i never thought of making fries out of them. the swedes make cake out of rutabegas, so i imagine fries would totally rock. i love them so. your posts progressively become more awesome. love the close up of the s'mores! yayyayayay!
I can't decide what is cuter - those mini s'mores or that apricot!
I think I'm going to have to make those Super Charge Me Cookies soon. Everyone loves them so much!
Aw I'm a July baby, too! :) Plus your birthday is on my anniversary! :) And I have to say - I'm loving all this avocado action! Delish!

Ohhhh those s'mores look so good! Rockin' the eats, as usual
i love love homemade guacamole!!
rutabaga fries! i have never had a rutabaga =(
aww shelby those smores are way too cute :D
loving all the rutabega fries too!
the tiny apricot is such a cutie. and that amazing guacamole really does look amazing. i have an avocado that will be ripe soon. maybe i should make a batch of guac with it!
by the way, i have no idea why that pbu came out so thick the other day. my only secret is that i make it by the serving instead of whipping up a big batch. i just do 1 part nut butter to 1 part soy or rice milk. i do a tablespoon to a tablespoon and mix it up in a little dish. the last time i made pbu it came out really runny because i added extra soy milk. but this time i stuck to even amounts pb and rice milk, and it came out so thick! i'll have to figure out those proportions.
and ahhhh those smores sound/look delicious. too bad i can't eat one through the computer screen!
okay wow this comment is starting to get long. one more thing to say: thanks for the recipe i asked for! i still haven't made it. it seems like an intense process, haha. but i'll let you know when i do! :)
vegan s'more's you're a genius! That's so cute that you watched that movie with your bro's, they have good taste!
Everyone seems to be making these green smoothies now. They are so good and healthy! I can not get enough of them. I like mine best with Kiwi!

Ahhh! I would have died to watch Moulin Rouge with you and snack on some of those S'mores! Not only do I love that movie, but the s'mores look so wee and adorable on the alphabet graham crackers!!
You certainly had some good eats this post -- I've been rockin' the Snobby Joes and Green Monsters this week too. :)
Ooh! I have some of that chocolate in my fridge, and that looks like the perfect way to enjoy it--Moulin Rouge and all:)
You did NOT make vegan smores. You are insanely wonderful. Think we could make raw smores? Oooh...raw smores ice cream. You can't stop me!!!
Cute s'mores!

Gotta try those super-charge me cookies! Your rutabaga fries look really good--I've only ever had the almond-crusted ones I make and never plain. But dipping would make them better. :)
Have a happy 4th of July!
