Salmon Cashew Pizza


So, I was looking at the date on my last blog, and I couldn't believe it had been that long! Bye bye October!

 Anyway, I've had this post half-done in draft form for a while and I figure I gotta force myself to finish it. This happened weeks ago mind you!

 There's nothing like spending a Friday evening together with the family (mom, dad, and I :)) making homemade pizzas and watching a movie! It's little things like this that create the fondest memories! 

Mom made a regular pizza crust for her and dad. I made a gluten free crust that seriously is the easiest crust I have ever made! It  took 10 min. tops. However, it wasn't like a traditional fluffy or crispy crust. It was slightly more rubbery, which sounds gross, but it actually fit really well with the sauce, etc. 

I went a little crazy and made a really abnormal pizza. I made a yummy sauce and then topped with: broccoli, cauliflower, stir-fried salmon, cabbage, and cashews. 



And yes, I ate that entire half of the pizza by myself...easy. :)

Pumpkin Pancakes

Image
I remember when I was younger, how it was always a special treat when my mom made pumpkin pancakes. It was probably one of the most glorious smells! We would cover  them in powdered sugar. My mom would say, "You probably don't need that much sugar." To which we would smugly reply, "But it falls off when you pick it up." Or, "it's not that  much!" Oh the days... I've always loved pumpkin pancakes, and so I knew it was time to make my own recipe, without all of the sugar. Now I think of pumpkin pancakes as a normal breakfast and not just a treat on a special occasion. I figure, it adds one more vegetable/fruit (whatever it is!) to my day! I created this recipe on a whim, and it actually turned out really good! I came up with the idea after my visit to the doctor. I've been trying to pack in as many fruits and vegetables, including in my baked goods. I figured putting pumpkin in pancakes was only reasonable...and delicious! I mad

Mock 'Cream of Broccoli Soup' w/ Quinoa

Like I mentioned earlier, I've gotten back on the green smoothie train, which I am loving! I forgot how wonderful they make me feel! These green smoothies are cold and refreshing, but I knew that when the winter came it would be harder for me to drink these everyday. But I still want the benefits from these nutrition powerhouses. So I got thinking. And I thought that there's gotta be a way to make a hot version of these smoothies, but not necessarily with the same ingredients. That was when I got the idea of soup! Now,  I know your probably thinking, "Great. Yippee. What's new?" However, this soup is not just your average, ordinary soup. It's basically a hot green smoothie without the fruit. Okay, now your probably really grossed out. But don't be, because this soup is AMAZING!!! As far as I know (keep in mind I haven't had one for a long time) it tastes like a store-bought, Campbell's can of Cream of Broccoli Soup. It's incredibly crea

Tropical Popsicle (in a bowl) no sugar

Tropical Popsicle  Yup, I'm a poet and I didn't even know it! Okay, so maybe it's not a perfect rhyme, but it sounds musical doesn't it? And so it should...this deliciously cold, icy, fruity dish will not only be music to your ears, but to every taste bud in your mouth! It's the perfect solution to a blistering hot summer day. In fact, it could be considered medicine...you don't want heatstroke....so you eat this! :) Okay, moving on. Anyway. It was SOOOO hot today here in Cambodia! My mom and I decided we wanted to get out of the house (the sun always looks so wonderful from the inside) so we hopped on our bike and rode to some furniture stores (we're in search of a couch that is American-people size). Add the fact that we're already sweating and hot from the bike ride, these stores don't keep their AC on in order to save money. Here we were searching in a hot, sticky, musty furniture store for about an hour. Then we rode home. Needle
