Keen-wah...

So, I moved into a new apartment this weekend and I've yet to figure out how to hook up my internet, so that's why I haven't posted lately. I'll post more about the apartment and my adventures in decorating very soon....

My new place is close to downtown and my commute is only 10 minutes, door to door. SO RAD. Because I have all of this newfound free time in the morning, I actually made my lunch today and thought I'd share a recipe for a super easy recipe using a very, very healthy food, quinoa. It's a complete protein, so it's really, really good for you and more importantly, it's impossible to screw up . . . and I could easily burn water.

1 cup Quinoa
1 can of black beans, drained
1 container of salsa
1 avocado

Prepare the quinoa on the stove like the box tells you to. Add the black beans in during the "simmer" process and toss the salsa in, once it's cool. Add avocado right before eating. Salt, pepper and you're ready to go.

Yum.

i scream...

so i discovered this stuff a few weeks ago and i can't stop buying it (and sadly eating it)! it's the best stuff ever!
it's coconut bliss ice cream... and the greatest part is that it's not that bad for you! (yay!). it's made with coconut milk and sweetened with agave syrup. and it tastes amazing... especially if you're a fan of coconut!

it's soy, dairy, & gluten free, low glycemic, vegan... and organic! check out the nutritional info.
it also comes in 10 yummy flavors. my favs are dark chocolate and then naked coconut. i still haven't tried the mint one.... so that's next i think!

anyway... if you haven't tried this amazing stuff... go out to your local natural foods store and buy some!

cheers to a yummy (as good for you as it gets) ice cream! happy friday.
