My Cat-urdays Are Anything but Lazy These Days

Today is my adventure day.

It's true most Saturdays I spent my time indoors bored outta my flippin' gourd... but not as of late. The big guy and I have been working are proverbial asses off. It's been big crazy combination of exciting and stressful, but all in all we agreed it's been fun. And with as busy as we've been I've found that in my spare time the last thing I want to do is sit around. It just feels like a waste.

Getting Back on Track (Pun Intended) and Cashew Tofu

Just got done running my little heart out, at 4am. To be honest with how crazy busy I've been not only has my cooking kind of been put on the back burner (also pun intended), but my Urbanathlon training hasn't been going as steadily as I would have hoped either.

That's why I decided for the next few posts I'll be taking my favorite all time go-to recipes, and revamping them! These are recipes that either came from or were inspired by recipes in magazines like Men's/Women's Health, and Cooking Light. The also usually contained meat, so I'm going to remake them meatless :)

But I Only Added a Pinch Of Spice: Alu Gobi

Yay for Indian food! Alu Gobi is a cauliflower and potato dish, and I was super excited to make it for Mike and I since we both happen to like potatoes and cauliflower! And I even promised to watch the spiciness for his sake.

Not As Weird As You Think: Asian Inpired Savory Oatmeal

For me and my siblings oatmeal stirs up fawn memories from childhood, when we spent the night at Grandma's and she would make us a big bowl of oats in the morning. They were so simple, just dry oats water in a pot on the stove, but she made it so perfectly. And of course, she would always let us sneak in some brown sugar :)
