Did you know that people put butter in coffee? It’s a thing. I’ve never done it before, but I found myself with some leftover espresso butter (spoiler alert: recipe coming Saturday!) so I decided to give it a try, because I was out of muffins (spoiler alert: recipe coming Saturday!). Normally I drink my coffee straight up black, but I came across this buttered coffee recipe while I was doing some compound butter research and thought “what the heck, let’s do this.”
So I did. And I liked it. I love that blending the coffee with the butter (and a splash of almond milk) gives it a frothy texture – like a tasty latte in the comforts of my home. I don’t know if I will make this a habit, but it will be fun to do every once in a while.
Besides the delicious coffee it’s been a good food week. I made up a large batch of roasted veggie bowls with lemon tahini dressing for my lunches, these no bake pumpkin granola bars for my afternoon snack, and then had some girlfriends over last night for some cozy vegan enchiladas with lime cream. Delicious, healthy food makes me oh so happy.
What else made me happy this week? These things:
- Currently drooling all over these breakfast and brunch recipes: savory bacon and cheese stuffed french toast, toasty oats with coconut, raspberry breakfast bowls, spiced sugar buns, baked bagel french toast, chia pudding parfait, buttermilk waffles, coconut & quinoa pancakes, waffled cheesecake, and this brunch frittata.
- I want to buy white letter stickers and remind myself to keep going.
- The Comedy Bang Bang podcast is my new obsession. Listen to it during long, steady cardio sessions (like a 12 mile run). The laughter will give you an added challenge and some ab work.
- After reading this, I really want to host/get invited to a mixology party.
- 10 ways to boost your confidence, because we are all amazing and deserve to be confident.
Happy first Thursday of March!
