Thanks for letting me fill your holes on this delightful Monday! Just wanted to share my thoughts on some of the items on today's menu...

Lemon Ginger Miso Soup - This broth is super nourishing - and delicious! Sip it on the go from a thermos if you're in a rush - or if you have some time you could add some rice ramen noodles for a little added fun. Who doesn't love a wet noodle?

Sweet Potato Black Bean Quinoa Burger - While this one is great on it's own, I totally recommend really gettin' saucy with it. If you haven't already swallowed that sweet creamy beet garlic mayo, I'd recommend heating that burger up in the oven (wrapped in aluminum foil, or covered in some way to keep it moist). Once it's all hot, lube it up with that mayo and drop some deliciousness on top - maybe some bread and butter pickles, pickled jalapenos, and some avo? Honestly, the sky is the limit but that is my favorite way to eat these burgers. The burger might be filling enough with all that goodness on top, so why not save the fries for breakfast tomorrow and eat them with some greens and eggs!?

Breakfast Grits - These were my favorite item on the menu this week. Maybe it was just nostalgia for my trip down south or maybe it's just that perfect mix of warm cinnamon, maple syrup and nuts. Whatever it is, these are great but they get thick real fast. Usually, that's a good thing, but if it's too thick getting it in your mouth and swallowing can be a challenge. When you heat this baby up, try adding some milk or water to thin it out a bit.

Would love to hear your feedback on this week's food. Please let me know what you liked and what you didn't. Also, I am taking requests for upcoming menus!!
