Break was pretty fun. I started it off by volunteering for one of my favorite places in Boise, Simply Cats. They did a fundraiser called Catsino and yes it is as adorable as you would imagine. It was a great event and they were able to raise more money than ever at over $34,000. It was a long night, but I got to pass out bottles of wine and hang out with this cool girl!
After that, I got to spend time with the little gremlins on my new couch!!! It's been so exciting seeing the transformation of my house from 5 years ago. I've put some hard work into it over the years, made it my own, and (hopefully) put some equity into it.
I wasn't a complete bum though because I also completed a mini tri sprint! Running still isn't my favorite with my knee but I can power through the bike and swim easily. I.just.hate.running.
And finally Easter with the fam! I took Arbor to go hang out with the other little puppies at my dad's. I will forever remember this picture because a couple hours later, she gave me a nice little Easter treat by puking all night from eating something she shouldn't have. Monday was so much fun...I'm honestly still recovering (along with my carpet).
If I'm being honest, I didn't really cook a whole lot during break, but I did try making french toast from my new cookbook Thug Kitchen, eat like you give a f*ck. It was so worth it. I've been missing french toast, and though it isn't exactly like the real thing, it comes close. And also, it's pretty funny when they tell you to "slowly whisk in the milk so that shit doesn't get all lumpy." If you're looking for a good vegan cookbook, this is the one.
Here's what you will need:
1 1/2 tsp. ground chia or flax seeds (I used chia)
2 tbsp. whole wheat flour
1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
1/2 loaf day-old sourdough bread
1 1/2 tbsp. nutritional yeast
cooking spray
1. In a pie pan mix together the ground chia seeds and flour. Slowly whisk in the milk. Let it stand for 15 minutes.
2. Whisk the batter after about 15 minutes and then slowly add the nutritional yeast and stir. Heat a griddle or heavy pan over medium heat and coat with a little cooking spray. Soak the bread slices in the batter for a couple seconds on each side and then put them on the griddle. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes a side, or until they look golden and tasty all over.
ENJOY!
