To make up for the recipe post scarcity on the blog, I wanted to share some of eats this month, both restaurant food and stuff I scavenged together at home. Some breakfasts, work lunches, quick dinners.

Before I dive in,  I want to be as real and open and authentic with y'all as I can be about this post, about where I am in my eating disorder recovery, about my eating in general. That's why I'm going to mention if I split/finished the meal or not. I don't want to pretend that I am not struggling because I undoubtedly am. Remaining focused on recovery has been extremely difficult with my internship right now. Being surrounded by people for 80% of my day is rough. Plus, there are a lot of potentially triggering conversations that stem from this diet/healthy-eating/thin-ideal society that we live in. More than anything, I think I wanted to post this for myself as a reminder

Spot the odd man out--the only picture I took with a legit camera rather than my phone: this ultra spicy turkey burger (Shared with my dearest mother and had some of those sweet potato fries and fried green beans making a background appearance on the side)

Threw together a mish mash of things in a bowl: oven fried polenta, zucchini and onions, smashed avocado, white beans and salsa

Acai and pitaya bowl topped with granola and tamarind candy

Picked up some baked goods for my coworkers one morning including this lovely almond croissant (Split it with my coworker so this is only half of the delicious pastry)

Miso glazed salmon -- TOO easy

Spanikopita + spanikopita omelette (spinach + feta) + strawberries

Cucumber, avocado, goat cheese -- classic combo

Chile pecan ice cream + mangoes

Pumpkin freezer waffle with ❤️-shaped strawberries and chocolate dusted yogurt with cacao nibs to celebrate Vday

Avocado, hummus and balsamic mushrooms on olive bread for a quick work lunch

Taking a nod from Sarah and freezing my pear Siggi's for a late night snack

Baked egg in an avocado with salsa and leftover roll and zucchini

Falafel salad + unpictured pita bread and a spicy eggplant dip (Only ate half of the salad and falafel and took home the rest)

Kale, acorn squash and horseradish cheese quesadilla on corn tortillas
