Cinnamon Crumb Cake

I ate a lot of normal food today and was able to share it with friends without them really noticing a difference. I was so worried about today and how it was going to be just because of the food. It was a challenge to find a way to season the chicken but we finally were able to try something new that I enjoyed. I look forward to more adventures tomorrow.

Breakfast – Cinnamon Crumb Cake…yum!

Lunch – Black beans, corn, avocado, cilantro, lime, salt and pepper with corn chips, cheese and salami..

Snack – Raw cherry and cashew bar, and Anjou pear.

Dinner – Chicken (rice vinegar, honey, cilantro, red pepper flakes) with broccoli and sweet potato. We first made a sauce with sesame oil, coconut aminos, cilantro, honey, salt and pepper but I realize I don’t like sesame oil. All this time I thought it was tahini.

Happy Thoughts: I can bake with the all purpose flour I made today(brown rice flour, corn starch and tapioca flour) J

Special Stuff: Emeril naturally makes a lot of gluten free and dairy free foods so check out his recipes on food network and his cookbooks!

Other Notables: Elizabeth Hasselback from the view is vegan and wrote a book. Anyone heard of it?

Changing my Routine.

I planned to run some quick errands at lunch today. I had to go to the library and post office and thought I could pick something up for lunch…HA! I tried to go to a local deli that I use to grab lunch if needed and was stuck staring at the menu because I could not get anything.

I made it back to work and just had apples, almond butter and carrots. I am going to be starving by dinner time and planned to stop at whole foods to get some stuff so I can bake tomorrow.

Whole foods is a great store but they are breaking my budget. I found the stuff for the crumb cake for tomorrow and will let you know how it goes.

MENU

Breakfast – TJ Granola (so sick of this)

Lunch – Luna White Chocolate Macadamia protein bar, carrots.

Happy Thoughts: Making Cinnamon Crumb Cake tomorrow!

Other Notables: The Allergen-Free Baker’s Handbook by Cybele Pascal….I checked this out from the library and am now going to buy it! It is amazing…easy and practical. It is not full of recipes that you will actually use.
