A few photos from this weekends healthy choices! Including my lovely Sangria with organic blood oranges, strawberries, and apples!

Kumquats. Definitely gives your mouth a bite!

Fresh organic salad with sliced red onions, radishes, wheat berry/lentil/pea sprouts. Drizzled with my homemade dressing.

Organic heirloom tomato basil soup. Generally I do not use heavy cream in my tomato soup; however, I had some cream left from making creme brulee. Gave it a try and it was definitely a hit!

Grilled eggplant topped with fresh chopped red peppers and green onions. Drizzled with Asian sauce. It pairs really well with sweet peanut sauce!

Living on a budget and eating healthy is possible! Ask me how!

Organic lemon garlic dressing with mustard whole grain and chardonnay.

Local native grain toast with one sunny side up egg. A side of organic spring mix with lemon garlic dressing; topped with chopped tomatoes, sliced red onion, sunflower and cress sprouts.

Chicken jalapeno spaghetti with organic tomatoes, yellow zucchini, red onions, and chopped basil. Tried something new....mixed some lentil sprouts into the cucumber pasta. The tomatoes we canned over the summer from Colusa came in handy!!!
