It’s all Greek to me…

Suprisingly, prior to this morning I hadn’t taken the plunge to try Greek yogurt!  It’s in every magazine I read, I see it on all the blogs I follow, yet I’ve never tried it.  Why is that?  Whelp, I assumed it wouldn’t be very filling or satisfying compared to eggs and veggies or oats and fruit. 

Today my friends, I took this plunge via homemade fruit-on-thee-bottom Greek yogurt.  I threw a couple strawberries and some blueberries in my blender (are you sick of hearing about my new toy yet?), and pulverized the crap out of them.

I didn’t have any granola in the house, so I brought a few shredded mini wheats and some chocolate oreos to toss on top 😀 

Fruit on the bottom.. er.. side

  

All together now

 

I liked the yogurt but I think next time I should get vanilla instead of plain.  Plain was just a little, well…  plain

PS:  breakfast #1 consisted of PB2, whole wheat bagel thin, and banana.  This was in replacement of my sante fe style eggwich which I mistakenly put ground cinnamon on instead of red pepper flakes!  UGH!  Cinnamon and red pepper flakes happen to be the only 2 jumbo size spices I buy 🙁 

PB2 banana goodness

 

Unhappy accident (as opposed to the happy accident I had last night): 

cinnamon on eggs = 🙁

 

For those of you who are wondering, I did actually try the cinnamon eggs.  Not a fan.

Hello! I’m Mary, a self-proclaimed fervent foodie and carbohydrate connoisseur. This blog is about my life—my passions, adventures, and failures—through food. I’m a bean counting CPA by trade, but my true passion is food. It is the unabashed soul of my being. The history, the culture, the taste, the experience–I am fascinated and enchanted by it all. I devote my free time almost entirely to scouting out delicious restaurants and cooking up new recipes. It makes me especially happy when I can take a recipe and “healthify” it. By this I mean turn it into something healthy and nutritious that still tastes friggin’ delicious. I love to connect with readers, restaurants, and those in public relations, so email me and let’s talk food! Google
