Sautéd Kale and Avocado Salad

kale and avocado salad

You know when you feel like you want something to eat but you’re not quite that hungry?  I felt that way today, after eating a big breakfast.  It was around 2pm and I knew that if I didn’t eat then, I would be hungry by 4 and then my dinner schedule would get ALL KINDS of messed up. UGH, it’s a tough life, lol.  Anywho, I came across this recipe on Shape.com and it looks so good (and easy).  I skipped the quinoa and apple, since  I didn’t have any at home, but the combo of sauted kale and avocado is light and yet, I’m still satisfied.  Oh, and two words for you: truffle salt.

The Monday Rundown: the natural greens addition

the monday rundown

I’ve been noticing a “natural” greens trend happening for me, as of late.  Sure, they’re obviously really good for your health and body, but I’m starting to pay attention to grass-patterned accessories and beauty products as well, it’s a sickness.  Here are my faves of the moment:

1. Kale chips: I stumbled upon this super easy recipe on Refinery29 and became instantly obsessed.

2. Windowsill herb planter kit: I’ve been trying to grow something (anything, really) on my balcony for three years now…and it hasn’t been very successful.  I’m thinking an herb garden might be more up my alley.

3. Sephora + PANTONE UNIVESE glitter false eyelashes: I really love the subtle green glitter line at the base of these falsies, and, girls, they’re not just for St. Patrick’s Day.

4. Kate Spade “play the field” clutch: Good advice for dating but even cuter on a clutch…with actual grass on it.
