Happiness in a bowl

Mashed yukon gold potatoes with broccoli, carrot, avocado and cooked chicken.

I woke up hungry this morning and knew I wanted a big bowl of something.

Since my cravings for oatmeal are few and far between these days, I decided on a mashed potato bowl.

One yukon gold potato went into the steamer (cut into medium chunks) and when it was tender I took the potatoes out and mashed them with a splash of soymilk and 1 Tbsp. of Tofutti cream cheese. I also added a pinch of salt and pepper.






Then the carrots and broccoli went into the steamer. When they were tender, they joined the potatoes.




 
And because I wanted to add some protein and healthy fat, I tossed in some cooked chicken and avocado.

 
I ate it all mixed up with a extra bit of pepper.



I would definitely call this happiness in a bowl :-)

Happy Saturday everyone!

  1. Ha, I was just commenting on anothe blog that my breakfasts were pretty boring. This breakfast looks like all we need to get going in the morning. Who says breakfast has to be grains or cereal!
