Summer Salad Sandwich

The lazier I am the more creative I become...

This open-faced "breakfast" sandwich has everything I love

Gluten free bread topped with wild salmon salad, chickpeas, avocado, red pepper, 

red onion, dill pickles, a poached egg, spinach, yellow mustard, and black pepper

Because hey, it's SUMMER and sometimes your mind does weird sh*t haha

Summer Salads and BBQ

My blogging friends, I am back on Vancouver Island and back to my 

healthy gluten free living. I've been gone for too long and missed everyone

 greatly. Food porn is in the works to make up for lost time. So enjoy!

Two healthy homemade salads to go with dinner

Caesar Salad with Gluten Free Croutons and Parmesan 

Light and crisp

Organic Baby Potato Salad with Red Peppers

I used Miracle Whip because it's a tad healthier than full-fat mayonnaise ;)

Pork Chops smothered in Barbecue Sauce

Everything paired together

The perfect Summer meal to have shared amongst family!

Squirrel Shaped Bread

There is always room for fun and art in the kitchen!

I made "Squirrel Bread" after seeing Squirrel Toast from the blog, 

A Whisk and Two Wands. She did a much better job on hers than mine

Even Snacking Squirrel a.k.a. "Nutters" came over to check himself out ;)

"I don't think this looks like me, Kelsey!"

I made a vague cut-out of a squirrel and then added an almond in 

his paws, a dried cranberry for an eye, and a cashew for his eyebrow

The tail was cut out from another slice of  gluten free bread and

 spread with creamy peanut butter, making it look bushy and fluffy

Let me just say I ate the tail as soon as I finished taking photos ;)

Not the most artistic work I have done but it's still cute nonetheless

Happy snacking!

Turkey Salad Sandwich

Turkey salad, egg salad, chicken or salmon 

salad...it doesn't matter what, I just love salads!

Planet Organic Market's Turkey Salad

Paired with my favorite bread: Glutino Gluten Free Multigrain Loaf

I'm obsessed

Made with wholesome ingredients

I simple topped the toast with a scoop of the turkey salad

And enjoyed eating every bite

Salmon Salad for Breakfast

There's nothing wrong with wanting to get your omega 3's in before noon

So I had Planet Organic's Wild Salmon Salad on top of gluten free 

bread for breakfast, and it was delicious! Just what my body needed :)

Question: Do you ever eat seafood for breakfast?

Eggs in a Basket

"Eggs in a Basket", "Eggs in a Bread Hole"...however you call it, call it delicious!
