Yesterday when I wasn’t feeling well I opted for a safe Peanut Butter Banana Oatmeal, it was a good comfort food on a cold day. It was even colder this morning, but I had a craving for all things fruit. It’s not like me to have a yogurt parfait during my weekend, mainly in due part to bringing these to work on a regular basis. However unlike my work parfaits I can be a little more creative, and not be restricted by rules of portability. I pureed a bunch of different frozen fruits together; in this case I used red dragon fruit, peach, mango, pineapple, and blueberries with some honey and coconut milk. I was originally going to make it into a breakfast shake, but there was enough in the pitcher that I couldn’t have finished it all. So I made it part of a yogurt parfait, a mix of vanilla greek yogurt, chopped kiwi, the dragon fruit mixture, more vanilla yogurt and topped with cherry granola, mandarin oranges and honey. It felt almost like dessert!
It was packed with plenty of healthy swag that I think it helped me get through a more eventful day off. I finally had enough energy to get my care packages finalized for shipping! 😀 You’re first Florida! :v
I found out that I might be off for Valentines Day this year. I’m not sure why but I’m already contemplating a Valentines Breakfast to make for myself, gotta spoil yourself sometimes. 😛 Last year I made a portable chocolate themed breakfast parfait with candies and the whole shebang. If I’m staying home this year I’d want to do something nice, that would put me in a good mood to a start of my weekend. I’ll have plenty of time to think about it.
