No, I didn’t spend the day channeling this 90s stoner flick, but I did find myself alternating between baked and raw foods all day.
After church, I made some baked tofu and a ½ a baked sweet ‘tater.

The tofu inspiration came from Cait, and I added hummus to upgrade to full hippy status. I also put balsamic vinegar and spicy mustard on the potato.
Then I made an un-baked dessert – fudge baby love.

The next baked item was lasagna for a mom in my class who just had back surgery

Meeker was really jealous that this got packed up and delivered to someone besides himself.
I also baked some beautiful pumpkin molasses cookies to send with the lasagna.

I saved half for myself to appease the husband.
And dinner was another un-baked combination that would have made Elvis proud.


A sliced banana with peanuts, mini chocolate chips, and vanilla soy milk. (Actually, I’m not sure how Elvis would have felt about soy milk, but the banana, peanut, chocolate combo…hunka, hunka burnin’ love)
It has been snowing pretty much all day, so I’m going to go flush some ice down the toilet and keep my fingers crossed for a snow day tomorrow!


yayyyyyy so glad you liked the cookies – did you eat the dough? because i am convinced that is one of the best parts of the recipe
no risk of salmonella at all!
ummm THAT CEREAL IS GENIUS! i never would have thought to throw that combo in together (peanuts!!!!) but i am loving it. when my banana/peanut/choco chip stash gets replenished, i will be sure to enjoy.
LOVE YA GIRL!
Elvis would’ve been crazy to not like your yumlicious-lookin snackie!
I love the use of mustard. I love yellow and honey mustard and have started liking spicy. I’m thinking you have the right idea putting it on your potato.
That dessert makes ME happy! Oh boy, i’ll HAVE to recreate that the second I have everything in stock!
GOOD LUCK WITH THE SNOW DAY! That’d be amazing. And i’d be so jealous! If it does snow…drink lots of hot chocolate/tea/coffee for me, watch a movie and stay in your pj’s all day
Hey Lady!
So I confess, I have about 5 Katie’s that comment on my blog regularly AND some of their names are not hyperlinked back to their blog…but since I see you on many of the blogs I comment on, I thought it’s worth a try!
Anyway, your cookies (a la Holly) and your Fudge Baby tweaks look PHENOM! Can i help you eat it? LOL
Hope you get a snowday! Those are much needed and so much fun sometimes.
Oh, and your banana/soymilk snack? I bet Elvis would have been all over that.
It looks amazing!
Those cookies look soooo good. I am a cookie enthusiast, I think I may have to give these ones a try…sounds like the best combo of flavors.
Fun concept for the post! I liked going back and forth with you. How nice of you to send over some delicious food to that mother too, I am sure she will be so excited to receive such healthful eats. Hope you got your snow day!!!
Hahah – flush some ice down the toilet?? I’ve never heard of that…is it good luck for a snowday?? You’ll have to fill me in on your secret!
Did you ever do the wearing your pajamas inside out? That was bit for me in my grade school days. But it was something like if you wore than inside out AND backwards it would jinx it and wouldn’t happen. HAHA. Kids are so weird.
Those pumpkin cookies sound AMAZING and yay for baked tofu! I have some waiting for me in my fridge
I love sp’s with hummus, great combo! Those fudge babies always call my name when you post about them. If I hadn’t down the majority of my dates covered in AB I would have made them already!
That is so sweet of you to make something for a kid’s parent! I wish I knew my kids’ families as well as you do. I guess it’s different when they’re older.
I love your fruit cereals always- just don’t know if it would fill me up for breakfast, but maybe along side some boiled eggs. I’m gonna try it.
As well as your halfed baked sweet potatoo. I’m gonna bake a bunch one day,seeing as I never think to bake it ahead of time for breakfast- and then just reheat them through the week. Lol.
um those cookies look amazing!!! what a delicious combo
banana cereal?! yessssss! I love that idea. Ive been eating apples with almond milk. But Im so gonna have to make it with some bananas and some chips and peanuts. Looks great! Those cookies look amazing too!
Holy geez! Baked or unbaked it all looks delish!
yum i love all the eats and treats you have been whipping up! arent holly’s cookies the BEST?!
