breakfast again

You know I had to make Buckwheat + Puffed Amaranth Cereal again.  I had only been thinking about it all day + night!

I snapped a few quick photos without my tripod and man can I tell a huge difference!  The natural light in our kitchen isn’t that hot, so I have to put the shutter speed down pretty low.  I also have to widen the aperture when shooting without a tripod, which causes less of the image to be in focus.

Wide aperture + low shutter speed + shaky hands = blah

But blah is still delicious!

This bowl was similar to yesterday’s but a few toppings changed:

  • 1/4c raw amaranth [instead of 3T]
  • 1/4c soaked groats [instead of 1/3c]
  • mixed in 2T Raw Protein with the popped amaranth
  • toasted coconut

Using more amaranth, less groats + a little protein boost, helped this bowl hold me over longer.  Always a good thing!

Right now I’m chillin’ with my girl Kelsey at my favorite coffee shop, The Bean Cycle

We’re trying to be productive, but are quite hopped up on caffeine, which means 1 thing.

Chat-fest!

Iced coffee with COFFEE ICE cubes.  Genius!

Kelsey was also my lunch date.  I made a savory version of one of my most popular breakfast and cannot wait to share!

As Kelsey would say….
