There you have it and maybe now you know me better! Answer these on your blog if you want. It was fun!
Alright people lets get down to business! I am making something super special this mornig. Something that I have been seeing in the blog world a ton.
Pumpkin OATS!OMG!!! I cant believe that I have never tried this before, thanks to my blogging friends that I stalk, you truly just changes my life!
Yippy for tryin out new things!
Yesterday I went to the Co Op to get some pumpkin puree and the girl in front of me bought the last two cans of organic pumpkin puree. They were completely out after that. I was standing in the store so upset...I wanted pumpkin oat bran and I wanted today! I knew that I wasnt going to venture out to another store and I knew that it wouldnt be the end of the world if I didnt try the new addition this week...I still have all of November to be in the Fall spirit. I looked around the store and saw the most adorable organic pumpkin. I went over to it and grabbed it. Nothing stops me from a craving, nothing!
I went home with this little guy and scrapped out the seeds and insides. I saved the seeds for some baking fun after I got done. In went my little pumpkin friend after I sprinkled it with cinnamon and I waited...I have never baked a pumpkin but I knew that it wouldnt be much different than the kabocha that I have been baking each week. One hour later and out she came. Smelling oh so good I took a little taste! Yum! I was siked! I cut it into sections and scooped out the meat. I mashed it and added some mimic cream. Oh my! The best pumpkin puree that I could think of was made.
So this morning I added the puree to my oats and man oh man it came out good. Here is what was in it!
1/3 cup of organic oat bran
1/2 cup of pumpkin
1 tbl spoon of Salba oil
3 egg whites
A splash of Unsweetened Almond milk
A splash of kiwi Pomegranate juice
1/2 a crumbled raw vegan macaroon from one lucky duck
1 packet of stevia
WOW, I know...It was to die for.
I would show you the rest of my eats for the day but to be honest....It is boring and you saw it all on Tuesday so I wont bore you. I am glad to add a little Fall into my breakfast this morning and I must say. I am going to be doing this for a while. I hope that your week is going well so far. Can you believe that it is the middle of October already and Thursday non the less? Where is my life going....
I leave you with a question!
What is your favorite Fall tradition?
