ABC food!

I stole this from a couple of the other blogs I read. Because I love food.

A: is for Apple, what’s your favorite variety?

This answer is totally going to get my foodie card revoked, but I don't really like apples except for the sweet, presliced, organic kind that are already bagged. Biting into a whole apple (or cutting one up) just doesn't taste the same.

B: is for Bread, regardless of nutrition, calories, or whole grains what is your favorite type to have a nice big piece of?

Something homemade with herbs in it.


C: is for Cereal what is your favorite kind currently (just one!)

I eat Kashi hot cereal (cinnamon and honey) almost every morning with half a cut-up banana and a tablespoon of natural PB in it.

D: is for Doughnuts, you might not currently be eating them but what kind do you fancy?

Original glazed from Krispy Kreme - duh!


E: is for Eggs, how would you like yours prepared?

I can't fry an egg (or bacon) to save my life. I like them fried over-medium if I'm out, but at home I either scramble them or whip 'em into a souffle.


F: is for Fat Free, what is your favorite fat free product?

Sour cream is the first thing that comes to mind. Tastes exactly the same.


G: is for Groceries, where do you purchase yours at?

Publix or Kroger depending on what we need that week. Occasionally Whole Foods if I need something that I can't find somewhere else (or really good cheese)!


H: is for Hot Beverages, what is your favorite hot drink?

Homemade spicy mochas (based on Giada DeLaurentiis' recipe)


I: is for Ice Cream, pick a favorite flavor and add a fun topping.

Peanut Butter and Chocolate from Baskin Robbins. No topping needed!


J: is for Jams or Jellies, do you eat them, and if so what kind and flavor?

I don't just eat them, I can make them! For homemade, strawberry is a big hit in our household and so is fig. I don't eat much storebought, but Josh likes apple or grape jelly for his PBJs.


K: is for Kashi, name your favorite Kashi product?

Their hot cereal, mentioned above.


L: is for Lunch, what was yours today?

Leftover pasta salad from Memorial Day, Lean Cuisine Thai Spring Rolls (200 calories and delicious), and a Special K protein shake.


M: is for microwave, what is your favorite microwave meal/snack?

I honestly don't use it for much more than heating up leftovers or frozen stuff for lunch.


N: is for nutrients, do you likes carbs, fats, or proteins best?

I find I crave a lot of protein.


O: is for oil, what kind do you like to use?

Olive or canola.


P: is for protein, how do you get yours?

Peanut butter, protein shakes, beans and lean meats



Q: is for Quaker, how do you like your oats?

In no-bake cookies.


R: is for roasting, what is your favorite thing to roast?

Veggies - any kind.


S: is for sandwich, what’s your favorite kind?

Josh makes the best sandwiches, so preferably a turkey and cheese one made by him with some sriracha!

T: is for travel, how do you handle eating while traveling?

I eat things I can't normally get where I live (like fresh seafood or Tim Horton's!)


U: is for unique, what is one of your weirdest food combos?

I love salad with blue cheese and dried cranberries with a balsamic vinagrette. I don't think it's that odd, but it makes Josh want to puke on many levels.

V: is for vitamins, what kind do you take?

I usually forget to take them, but I do try to eat healthy, so I get a lot of nutrients in my food. When I take vitamins, I get a multi without calcium in it, or I'll have kidney stone issues in a heartbeat!


W: is for wasabi, yay or nay?

Yay, in moderation



X: is for XC Foodie, why is she so awesome?

I don't know who that is, but I am sure she is a nice girl.


Y: is for youth, what food reminds you of your childhood?

My mom's homemade strawberry jam. We never bought jelly!


Z: is for zucchini, how do you prepare it?

99% of the time we roast whatever veggies we have.
