Do you ever find yourself eating or drinking something only to realize that 1. you don’t like it and 2. you are feeling compelled to finish it simply because you made it? That was me 5 seconds ago. It’s the afternoon and I poured myself some iced coffee. Mind you, I try not to drink…

Mango Ginger Stir Fry
If I’m looking for a quick and easy dinner idea, stir fry almost always pops into my mind. You can really save time by buying pre-cut veggies or even a pre-assembled stir fry veggie mixes at Whole Foods or Trader Joe’s. If you do, make sure to pick up a mango during your next shopping trip. The…
Thai Crunchy Cashew Salad
As a former employee, I have it on pretty good authority that Thai Chili and Lime Cashews are pretty much the pinnacle of all Trader Joe’s nut aisle offerings. They’ve been around for a long time so I don’t imagine they’ll be demoted to the dreaded discontinued list (but you never know… TJ’s is mean sometimes). Trader Joe’s crew members…
Pineapple Teriyaki Patties
There are so many wonderful paleo-friendly and gluten-free products out on the market these days that sometimes I forget how difficult it was when I first started eating gluten-free back in 2008.

Lucky for me, I had all the necessary ingredients right in my fridge. This is super easy to make and…
Asian Chop Salad
I really don’t like bulgarian split squats. Not to brag or anything… but I have some pretty impressive lower body strength. There’s nothing like a nice set of bulgarian’s to make me feel like a complete weakling. My poor booty… my poor quads… and by “poor” I obviously mean “lucky” (insert gratitude practice here) because…
Ginger Squash StirFry over Cabbage
Everyone loves a good stirfry. This one is super flavorful, but also very simple. I mean, who’s got time to slice a million different veggies?! Make a big batch and have leftovers for days! It would also make a great post-worout meal. Oh, and add rice if you’re into that sort of thing… Ginger Squash…
Vegan Nut and Herb Lettuce Wraps
All things are swell here in San Clemente. It’s looking like we have some rain headed out way tomorrow which is just fine with me. I love the sun but it’s nice to get some variety and have the air and earth all cleaned up by shower or two. I’ve been advancing in my surfing…
