It’s Friday, it’s 7:42, here, in Costa Rica and I’m scrounging to put together a food fight Friday! I wasn’t going to be here this week but I just finished reading my talented and handsome husbands post and decided I can throw something together real quick before Blue Bloods starts (it’s the only English show on before bed in our air B and B).
This week has been filled with a lot of adventure, and not a lot of cooking… surprise, surprise. This is a collection of meals we’ve (I’ve) enjoyed over the last couple of weeks. Some are nothing special but others are much better than expected 😉
Why am I the last person on the planet to discover Avocado Toast? Seriously, do you know what I’m talking about? Crunchy toast and soft creamy avocado, sprinkled with sea salt and black pepper… dude, this one even had carmalized onions and chopped tomato 😋. So simple yet so frikken good.
Did y’all know that there were açai bowls in Costa Rica? Yeah, me neither but what a beautiful day it was to discover this little hidden gem. I mean, is there a person out there who doesn’t love these nutritious bowls of goodness? Didn’t think so 🙄.
(Clearing my throat) have I already discussed my budding addiction to avocado toast? It is probably a really good habit to keep me in tip top bikini wearing condition 🤦🏼♀️ C’mon, I mean look at that freshly peppered flaked creamy crunchy toast… it’s pretty beautiful just sitting there waiting to be devoured.
Did you know you could make falafel out of cauliflower? Well you can and I did, and it was delish. The cauliflower hummus I made on the other hand wasn’t that good but you win some you lose some I s’ppose.
I made @Dandays a Mexican breakfast pizza for when he got home from the gym. I know, he’s somewhat spoiled. Will you get a look at those toppings… it smelled so good coming out of the oven. Of course I had to stick to my 2 egg omelet and avocado but I could taste the pizza a little bit- through my nose of course.
This coffee was a special treat for me, not just because it’s enjoyed with that incredible view but because I quit my coffee about 6-8 months ago and really appreciate a good cup when I have it now. This was a strong, good cup. Costa Rica really does have some great coffee, just sayin 🤷🏼♀️
What we have here are some Pura-fied, Pura-approved nachos. These bad boys are made with baked zucchini chips and a bunch of other goodies. Pretty yummy if I do say so myself.
What? It’s my water to chase down all of that yummy food. Me posting this picture has nothing to do with the view.
I’m just walking into the weekend like this guy… slow and at my own pace- crab walking. I suppose this is a good place for a quote:
Surf Box was quite enlightened in that regard. I mean they did serve avocado toast and açai bowls after all 😎.
Thank you @Dandays for including me in your post. Without you I would have never put one together tonight. Thanks triple F peeps for checking me out. I’ll be making my rounds and salivating at all of your foodie posts.
Pura Vida ✌️
