Chocolate Chip Cranberry Muffins

Today’s eats were really random… because I ate a big breakfast at midday I didn’t get hungry again until around 2:30/3pm – and I don’t think I was really even hungry, probably just exhausted from the whole “I ran 19 miles today” thing.

I ate a mango and nachos for “lunch”. Yes, I ate nachos. I just threw them together with tortilla chips, salsa and cheese in the micro. I don’t know where the idea even came from, but I’m not going to dwell on it ?

The big highlight of today’s eats is my new recipe for a small batch of chocolate Chip Cranberry Muffins. I love just making recipes up as I go along. I didn’t use any recipe, just my head movies.

Ingredients: (makes 6 muffins)

1/3c ww flour

1/3c oatmeal

1/3c egg beaters

1/3 c brown sugar

1/2c apple sauce

1/4c soy milk (use much more or less until you get the best consistency)

1/4tsp each: baking soda, salt, vanilla

1/2tsp salt

1/3c chocolate chips

1/3c cranberries

Directions: heat oven to 350 degrees. mix all ingredients except last two. once well mixed, add choc chips and cranberries. place in greased muffin pan (I sprayed with non-stick spray). Bake for 15 to 20 minutes. Makes six muffins.

I love mini-batches of baked goods! I love fresh from the oven muffins and cookies, but don’t want a ton of leftovers (cause they will end up in my belly). delight in ?

*Updated to add: Ben wasn’t feeling the muffins and said they needed frosting. I made frosting for his with cocoa powder, maple syrup and a little cream cheese. He was pleased ? and I was pleased to lick the spoon!

Ben wasn’t feeling well many of the day so we just hung out at home all day. I was fine with this because my legs wanted to rest. But, he was starting to go stir-crazy so we chose dinner out. We tried a new Sushi/Thai restaurant. I have never been to a restaurant and not liked my food to the point of not eating it, but that happened tonight. I don’t think it was the chef, I think I just purchased wrong. I got vegetable Udon with tofu. The tofu was measly and very fried and the veggies were non-existent.

I picked at my food and then purchased a cup of brown rice and stole some of Ben’s veggies. I love brown rice with soy sauce. I implied to just eat half of it, but then I remembered that I am not a saint and went at it ?

We also shared a baked sushi roll. It was one of those decadent ones with too much good stuff. I requested “no cream cheese”. I’ve never changed a sushi purchase before! It never even occurred to me, but Ben wanted this roll and cream cheese on sushi grosses me out. Bylo to výtečné!

I also want to point out that I am a camel. Some readers have asked about my water intake. I drink like an alcoholic on a downward spiral. Opravdu. Tonight I purchased a diet Coke and a water (my usual). I finished both and got refills – this is standard. Jsem velmi unavený! often times exhausted = random snacking for me, but I am brushing my teeth and closing the kitchen. hope you have a great evening!
