Happy Monday!

Breakfast was a yummy green monster!

  • almond milk
  • TONS OF SPINACH
  • flax meal
  • half banana
  • frozen peaches, strawberries and grapes
  • ice

I had a great at-home workout before lunch. I found a Jackie Werner session on our On Demand, and my legs and arms felt like jello after her 45 minute session. I loved it!

I showered quickly then had a filling lunch.

The last of my lentil soup and some buttered toast – I used Earth Balance.

I also had some melon for dessert and dried blueberries as a snack.

Then I got busy in the kitchen and made a batch of Fudgy Chocolate Chip Cookies – man, these things are GOOD! They tasted like brownies – you can;t even tell they are vegan and made with whole wheat flour!

I ended up eating some batter and a cookie – who said you can’t have dessert before dinner?!

After I loaded up on my fair share of chocolate, I decided I needed some veggies.

I had a MorningStar vegan burger on top of a bed of lettuce, covered with avocado, red onion, hot sauce, hummus and sunflower seeds. I also had a carrot. Hit the spot!

Hope everyone had a great weekend!

    I am curious about whether a Morning Star Farm Burger is really "clean" I just saw somthing in Prevention Magazine that said that type of food was highly processed. I eat them all the time myslef and am not trying to be disagreeable I am just curious…any thoughts?

    If I could eat your fudgy cookies I would definitely eat them before dinner, for dinner, and probably after dinner too. Good thing I can't eat gluten (blessing in disguise!).

    your GM looks soo good! i'm working on a transition from having all kinds of fruit in mine to more spinach! how do you like flax meal in yours? does it blend in or just sink to the bottom?

Hello, and welcome! I’m so glad you’re here.

I started The Clean Eating Mama back in 2008 as a place to share my love of wholesome food and healthy living. Over the years, this little corner of the internet has grown and changed right along with me.

Here you’ll find simple, nourishing recipes, thoughts on clean eating and wellness, and little pieces of my everyday life. In many ways, this blog has become a personal diary of sorts. This is a place where I can share what I’m cooking, what I’m learning, what I’m loving, and where life happens to be taking me.

Healthy living doesn’t have to be perfect or complicated. For me, it’s about making choices that help us feel our best, enjoying good food, and continuing to learn and grow along the way.

So grab a cup of coffee or tea, stay awhile, and welcome to The Clean Eating Mama. Read full bio.
