I'm a bit of a habitual eater...

I haven't posted in a while in fear that the meals I eat are so similar they won't appeal to my readers.  In the past few weeks I've continued to take pics of my meals with the intention of posting as soon as I found time, but when I sat down to make the post realized that all of the meals are so similar!  (I was also deterred because of the quality of the pics- they're all taken from my phone and definitely do not meet my creative standards)

As mentioned before, I only cook for myself and therefore have an abundance of the same ingredients.  Instead of making one large meal and eating the same left overs day after day, I split the ingredients and make different meals with them throughout the week.  One night I may have the vegetables mixed with hummus and the next with salsa, or my wrap may be filled with egg white on Monday and turkey on Tue.  (Saturday and Sunday are usually filled with enough variety to satisfy my splurge cravings until the next weekend.)

While I enjoy the meals, I have little faith that the average person/family would be content with such similar meals.  My new goal is to find easy, healthy recipes that appeal to a variety of palates, and will satisfy day to day cravings for everyone!

A frequent favorite is to mix cooked bulgar wheat, garlic hummus, grape tomatoes, and whatever assortment of steamed veggies I have available at the time.  Pop it in the microwave and enjoy for a quick and easy lunch.
