Pineapple Coconut Oatmeal with Unsweetened Carob Chips
A somewhat tropical breakfast
With some egg whites and cinnamon stirred in
The combination of oats, pineapple, coconut
, and carob is quite yummy
Now, for a little Taco Time...
Chicken Taco with Refried Pinto Beans
and Cream Cheese
Amongst lettuce and sliced tomato with pepper
Sitting atop an Ezekiel Tortilla
I started pre-cooking a few chicken breasts ahead of time to keep in
the fridge, which makes it so much easier to quickly put together a meal
By dinner, I was craving kabocha squash
So I made a big portion of Oven Roasted Vegetables and Squash
With Broccoli, Swiss Chard, Spinach, and Red Onion
Some people were curious about portion sizes; I generally
use a medium-size kabocha squash (approximately 2-3 lbs)
Question: Any special plans for Mother's Day on Sunday?

mmm pineapple coconut oatmeal sounds divine! I want to try that for sure. The wrap is also looking delicious, I'm making a turkey tonight and i can easily imagine the leftovers folded up in one of those babies! Yum!
I love pineapple oats! Everything looks delicious! No special plans...just hanging out with my boys. Although, I really couldn't ask for more!
Yum! Whenever I read your posts, I always say "i'm not a big oatmeal person BUT..." Again, this looks awesome!
Sues
kabocha! whoohoo! yummy! i miss that stuff!
I had my first kabocha squash last weekend :) Now I understand what all the hype is about :D
Yummmy! I love that pineapple is in season!
funny~I was going to eat this very oatmeal combo this morning but then changed my mind! :) growing up, I never got to celebrate special days b/c my fam was always so so busy. However, now that I'm a young adult, I try to break that 'tradition' and do something for my parents once in a while! so this weekend, we're having a PARRILLADA with Argentinean bbq and all that good stuff. :) have a beautiful week~
Your breakfast looks super tropical! I lovee pineapple but recently found I'm newly allergic to it (it's odd, I know! usually you grow out of allergies not into them :P)
This year for mother's day I'm baking my mum a batch of her favourite cookies and giving her the quote/photo book I made for her! oh and making sure she doesn't do ANY work :P
We have dinner plans for mothers day ... and we still have to go gift shopping.
LOVE that beautiful plate of veggie goodness :D
I love pineapple with coconut, especially in smoothies! It always reminds me of a pina colada!
Mmm..as if the combination of pineapple and coconut couldn't get any more delicious, you went and added carob. Oh my. I think I know what I'm having for breakfast tomorrow. :D
I wish I could be with my mom on Mother's Day :\ I'm always up at college for it, but I'll make up for it when we are reunited again :)
I never would've thought pineapple and chocolate. I bet it's good though :) And your kabocha craving... m'mmm you made something quite delicious looking!!
XOXO!
Carob and coconut are BFFs. It is known. Cherries might be really good with it too, in place of the pineapple.
My mommy and I are separated by the Atlantic Ocean. But I sent her a card!
Coconut & carob sounds amazing together! I love coconut in my oatmeal, especially the banana & coconut combo.
I honestly don't know which of those looks better! It's all delicious looking :)
Do you eat the whole baing tray of veggies in a single setting? It must be 2 kg (4 lbs) of veggies then! :O I think I'd burst. :D
Droooool. Both on that wrap and the tray of squash.
delicious eats :)
oh don't get me started on kabocha. that stuff is good.
Sadly, my lips itch when I eat pineapple but that breakfast bowl looks tasty! I actually made my mom simple oatmeal for mother's day in bed. She loves oats like I do:)
OHH MYY GAWWWWWDDD!!! This post is SO SO SO full of amazing stuff I can't stand it!! You're seriously making me DROOL girlie!! hehe I love pineapple-love coconut-and LOVE carob chips...the perfect combo!! (oh and I love oats too...who doesn't!?!) I'm totally trying this out for tomorrows brekkie though:) ps love the wrap too yumyumdiggers!
Your oatmeal inspired me to go to the grocery store RIGHT now for my breakfast tomorrow! Have a great Mother's Day!
