Hello August
Goodbye July, Hello August!
Summer I am so done with you. Once I get past 4th of July I am officially done with Summer and specifically the Summer heat. We went on a super fun road trip to Asheville, NC. Asheville is a vegan and beer heaven in the South. There are so many great food options and breweries. We did a couple of touristy things like drive on the Blue Ridge Parkway and visit the Biltmore estate to see the Chihuly glass exhibit.
But basically all we did on the trip was eat and drink. Our last night there we ate at Plant. It was an amazing meal! I highly recommend if you are ever in the area. We had to try the cheese plate so we started with that. Eric ordered the Green Curry and I ordered Seitan Chile Con Queso. Eric’s was great and I’m not a huge fan of tofu. The Seitan Chile Con Queso that I ordered was just perfect. It’s not a great photo of it but it was a stuffed tamale and grilled romaine with breaded seitan resting on top with pickled red onion and a yummy vegan queso sauce.
What are you cooking and eating?
I have been trying to eat a little cleaner and have been tweaking my workouts. I want to get back into hiking shape before this fall. So I have been bringing my lunch to work more, eating more salads, and raw foods. What about you guys? what have you tried recently and loved? When I do go out for lunch I have been eating smarter. Smoothie bowls are my friend. I love Farm Bowl and Kale Me Crazy in Homewood for lunches.
