Happy Sunday (at least I think that’s what day it is…they all blur together this time of year). We are enjoying our visit to Florida and my nieces just arrived last night so there is lots more fun to be had! ๐
Here is a collection of things I’ve been eating throughout the course of the holiday week.
BREAKFAST
Hold onto your hats because you’re going to see a lot of eggs and toast, which is not the norm for me! This was my Christmas morning brunch. Avocado toast on homemade sourdough, two eggs scrambled in butter and a sliced orange.
Toasted sourdough with almond butter and honey and two scrambled eggs with cheese.
A Dave’s Killer Bread cinnamon raisin bagel, one half with almond butter and honey, one half with butter. Two eggs scrambled in butter.
Same bagel (I ate the other half, it just wouldn’t fit on my plate for the photo) along with scrambled eggs and half a grapefruit.
And I’ve had a couple of bowls of my dad’s homemade yogurt and granola with bananas and almond butter.
LUNCH
I took a couple of weeks off from this combo but it’s back. Turkey, cheese, avocado, mayo, mustard and bread and butter pickles on wheat. I’ve decided that Publix Greenwise Bread and Butter Pickles are my favorite. They’re perfectly crisp and sweet.
PB+J. For reference, I love the Bonne Maman Four Fruits Preserves.
More turkey + avocado + bread and butter pickles.
Grilled cheese and tomato soup.
DINNER
Chili with cheese, sour cream, avocado, saltines and hot sauce.
Shrimp and grits.
Homemade pizza with an arugula side salad. My dad made all of the above dinners.
ETC
By far one of my favorite snacks of 2018.
This cake with a glass of milk the last four nights in a row.
Time to enjoy the day with my family.
Best holiday dessert that you’ve eaten?ย
What have you been eating for lunch lately?ย
You always eat so well. I wish that I could do better. I eat a lot of soup which I guess is pretty good but I love the variety I see in your posts. Did your parents have this stuff on hand or did you go to the store?
If you can find them, try the Sam’s Choice Spicy Bourbon pickle chips. Best pickles ever!! Have not found them at every Wal-Mart though. Fab with pimento cheese. Happy New Year!
Oops! Make that Spicy Maple Bourbon — souped up bread and butter pickles ?
