Nutty Pantry Sandwich

September 27, 2011 By Heather Blackmon

.

Today has been a good food day, I’m not going to lie! It all started when I realized I didn’t have time to make lunch last night – uh, oh. We actually have a café at work, but the no-meat no-dairy selections are pretty thin. Surely, I can figure something out, I just went grocery shopping!

I started going through the pantry, pulling out ingredients that sounded good. The Wheat Germ & Cinnamon are something I had on a sandwich a while ago and it’s such a great nutty/spicy/sweet flavor, just what I needed!

This was a delicious surprise at lunch today – such a yummy, pull-things-out-of-the-pantry kind of meal! I’ll be making this one for lunch again…on purpose this time.

Dinner was at the request of Kirk – this was the Tofu Nuggets & Lulu’s Mac N Cheese from Peas and Thank You Cookbook, a new staple in the Blackmon House.

This week I used PepperJack Daiya Cheeze and added 2 fresh Jalapenos at the end – a nice spicy kick!

Dipping the Tofu Nuggets in BBQ Sauce was the perfect complement!

Hi! I’m Heather, a yoga & wellness teacher based in Colorado... Read More…

Which is more YOUR thing - camping near an alpine Which is more YOUR thing - camping near an alpine lake or shredding on a local trail? ⬇️

In both cases, we need to protect the land we enjoy on our adventures. And Leave No Trace is one program that helps with that - especially those that have a high rate of degradation through a program called Hot Spots. 

I'm excited to be partnering with @leavenotrace and @onxbackcountry to celebrate and preserve all these beautiful outdoor places. And for all of June, $10 of every onX Backcountry membership is being donated towards Leave No Trace’s Hot Spot program. A great way to get access to my favorite backcountry app AND support LNT! 

I added a link in my bio if you're interested in learning more, so you can help #ExploreandRestore!

What scares me is probably different than what scares you.

I am admittedly a timid mountain biker - but getting better every day.

I'm afraid to face plant, but still working on crow pose in yoga.

Am I the only one still (basically) living in yoga Am I the only one still (basically) living in yoga clothes?

For at least part of the day, it's just easier to put on yoga pants, sports bra, and a "zoom-appropriate" top. Or a button-up layered over my workout tank. It makes it SO much easier to squeeze in a workout when I have time.

Tell me I'm not the only one who's not going back to work clothes?!

Wait, should I look at the camera? 📸 But reall Wait, should I look at the camera? 📸

But really, keep your gaze straight ahead to keep your neck safe in bridge (or Setu Bandha Sarvangasana). It's rare that a version of this pose isn't included during cooldown in my classes.

Do you love bridge as much as I do?
