I don’t know what it is, but I love looking at pictures of food. Yep, I’m THAT girl on Instagram (Oops). Seeing what other people are consuming—whether or not they’re bloggers— is fascinating, but that might be because I’m food-obsessed. I also love food palette originality. I’m tired of recirculation of recipes that have been on Pinterest and sprinkled on loads of healthy-living blogs. I don’t want to repeat content; I want to create it.
As a college student who strives to eat cleaner, it’s important for me to generate that unique content. That’s why I’m posting 8 of my most recent meals to encourage you to eat in and make something different (it’s FREEZING right now and Ohio is no exception). You can cook too! Trust me. Here’s some inspiration to work you up.
Front image: Trader Joe’s frozen quinoa with veggies, 1 sausage link and roasted asparagus with pepper and olive oil.
Blackberry + Pepper Salad: Baby lettuce, arugula, blackberries and pepper.
Fried egg & veggie power bowl: 2 fried eggs, broccoli, zucchini squash, red pepper, red onion, pepper + onion powder (sometimes I like some extra on veggies).
Chicken + soy sauce, baked sweet potato and sauted baby spinach + white onion. This is a hearty meal to me.
I don’t care that I made this in the winter, it was AMAZING. Roasted Summer Veggies with Parm. Cheese: Zucchini squash, zucchini, sweet potato, tomatoes, onions and minced garlic (I spread it on the bottom of the pan) + parm cheese. OMG.
Egg/avocado hybrid paired with strips of pumpkin French toast, tofu strips and sauted spinach. This was a weird meal, but it was good post-run! To see how to create the egg-o-cado, check out this post.
Speaking of avocado, UGH. This meal. Co-created by my roomie. Turkey burger with butternut squash, avocado, yellow and red peppers. Don’t the peppers look like fries? Yeah. They were better, though.
Falafel bites, broccoli, tomatoes, red pepper and eggplant. THIS was also a favorite.
Bon Appétit, everybody!
