Breakfast
Butternut Squash and Quinoa Frittata
Mmmmm, mmmm, mmmm am I loving Quinoa!! I made a big bucket of it over the weekend and have been throwing it in to just about everything all week long.
When I saw this recipe over at Anticiplate, I just knew I was gonna have to give it a go.
Quick-Quinoa Breakfast
New Quinoa recipe number two… Quinoa Porridge!
I’ve made this recipe a few times in the past but was recently reminded of it when I saw this post over at Closet Cooking (I love that site, Kevin is always trying something new).

Hi guys! Still pregnant and sick (suppose I should be grateful!) … three more weeks and I’m in the second trimester! Think a happy thought for a “Feelin’-Good-Cooking-Dani” in trimester two!! In the meantime, I thought these muffins would be great for this time of year! Enjoy!!

Batters up! Here is my first new recipe using Quinoa this month. I must say, quinoa is one of those ingredients that just has my wheels spinning… there are so many things you can do with it.
Clean and Simple Egg White “Omlette”
So this one isn’t so much a recipe as it is an idea.

As you may know, I am a big fan of “whole foods” and I think that whole eggs are a perfectly delicious and nutritious food. I love adding them to just about anything; breakfast, lunch, or dinner. But anytime I am trying to pull back on my calorie intake a bit without pulling back on flavor, I skip the yolks and stick to the whites.
Chocolate and Peanut Butter Oatmeal
Here’s another simple and d’lishes way to whip up some oatmeal for breakfast. Remember, I almost always make my oatmeal ahead of time, so all I have to do is reheat it with some yummy “add-in’s” come breakfast.
“Pear Cobbler” Oatmeal
What’s a Jersey girl to do on Christmas Eve Day when the temperature is about to reach 75 degrees here in Southern California?
Why, make a breakfast that would hit the spot in the middle of a snowstorm, of course! I mean, c’mon… how else am I gonna make it feel like Christmas??
Steel Cut Oats
Okay, so this isn’t exactly a recipe, it’s more of a strategy that I use to be sure that I have time for a nutritious breakfast.
Eggs-on-Quick Veggie Brown Rice
I just had to show you another way I like to eat the Veggie Brown Rice.
I’m telling you guys, ya throw an egg on top of just about anything and you’ve got yourself a meal. I usually have this for breakfast but it would definetely work for lunch or even a light dinner.
