I’m often asked what I nosh whenever away from home. Generally I’ll tote some sort of raw trail mix along with water and fruits that are easy to munch on if I’m rushing round. Sometimes I’ll pack a few simple meals to enjoy while out all day. On those days I make it a point take a proper break, maybe smell some flowers like Ferdinand The Bull. [smile]

Right! So here’s what I brought with me today.

Inside the pink thermos was a blueberry hemp smoothie, the black klean kanteen was filled to the tippy top with water. That was my salad tucked beneath the lunchbug Yes, lunchbug! [giggle]

Salad! A fun motley of flavors and textures created with simple ingredients.

Today’s mixture was cucumber, yellow bell pepper, fresh parsley, red tomato, celery, sunflower seeds, sun-dried cherries, shredded orange carrot, avocado and sweet onion lightly dressed with a raw Red Wine Vinaigrette.

So, back to the lunchbug. Inside were my utensils, the Red Wine Vinaigrette and two raw chocolate brownies. Remember this?! [googly eyes] There was also a container of mixed fruit at the very bottom of the bag that you can barely see.

Here’s a better view!

Strawberries and champagne mangoes sprinkled with hemp seeds.

Loooove hemp seeds on fruit…and soups, and smoothies, and green salads, and…and… [laugh]

But yeah, that’s some of what I ate today!
