I’m a busy bee today. No time to socialize. :(
That was my DailyBooth photo today. I didn’t even have time to tweet. I’m super busy right now. Work is picking up. The conference is full steam ahead (only 58 days left!) It’s tax season (I don’t wait.) and I’m going to Wordcamp Boston this Friday.
I’m also trying to keep up with some kind of workout routine. I need it. For me. Tonight I went to yoga and it was the only hour I wasn’t doing something for someone or something else. I got to clear my head, take a breath and simply be.
Tomorrow I’m going to hit the gym at 5:30AM and then head right to work. I’m trying to get it in first thing as I don’t want to give up evening time with the family. Not to mention I lose all motivation once I get home.
So I better go. Call me crazy but I’ll be sleeping in my workout clothes. I want no excuses to bail when my alarm goes off. That reminds me I better pack my bag to. Ok, I’m out! :)

What's Cooking in my kitchen?
-
Finally my first Farro idea! I have to say, I love this stuff! It's chewy and yummy and, well, fun! I tossed it with what I could find in my pantry and it made a wonderfully satisfying lunch. Filling but not heavy, tasty and quite nutrient dense. According to NutritionData.com this [...] -
I've seen it mentioned in a few of my clean eating and healthy cook books but honestly, I never even thought of Farro as an option for me. I refuse to shop at specialty stores and I try to use only common products that I can keep in stock and purchase from a typical grocery [...] -
I've never had a tuna melt. Is that weird? I guess that's what happens when you grow up not liking mayonnaise. I never ate tuna salad or egg salad or chicken salad. Honestly, they always kind of grossed me out. Then I realized.. hey.. why does tuna salad have [...] -
I have no idea where this idea came from. I was hungry. It was lunch. I had Brussels Sprouts. That was all the catalyst I needed.:) I decided to use a slice of real bacon to add flavor and little fat that would help sauté the sprouts. I'm trying [...] -
WOW was this good. I mean seriously good. It's not vegetarian so don't start throwing stones. I'm calling it a Garden Vegetable Burger because I use the new Laughing Cow Smooth Sensations Garden Vegetable Cream Cheese Spread. It was this recipe on Allrecipes.com that inspired [...] -
I drink water 99.9% of the time but every so often it just doesn't cut it. I want something else. Something more. Something slightly sweet. Today was one of those days. I decided to make a refreshing drink based on the famous Arnold Palmer, half lemonade and half iced [...] -
The other day I made a whole chicken on the grill in pieces. It was delicious! Just a little BBQ sauce and an open flame is all I need to make The Husband happy in the dinner department. I also picked up a few ears of corn from the grocery store. They aren't in season [...] -
Let me explain so you don't think I'm making a chili recipe and just put it on pizza. I'm calling this vegetarian Chili Pizza because chili is what inspired flavors. I think I told you. Little Bean is really into, well, BEANS! We go through a can about every 2 days. Yesterday [...] -
I've confessed my inability to follow recipes here on GreenLiteBites many, many times. I don't know why it's so hard for me. I can barely follow some of my own and I wrote the darn things! I think most of my problem stems from not having all the ingredients listed and, [...] -
Leftover brown rice and leftover sauce meet in this quick lunch idea inspired by my favorite food of all time: Pizza. I swear I can turn anything into a pizza concoction. Have you seen all my pizza ideas? I've used everything from pumpkin to zucchini, polenta to wontons. Nothing is off [...] -
This isn't a recipe just an idea I had to share. I can't believe how good it was! I've never had grilled pineapple. Can you believe it? I just never really had the desire to grill it before. When you love something raw sometimes it doesn't occur to you to cook it. [...] -
I whipped this up for lunch on a whim today because, well, I have a baby who's obsessed with three things… Cheese, Beans, and Avocado. No, really. Look... It's my go to meal for him so I find myself with beans and avocado readily available. [...] -
You know that tradition 7 Layer Mexican Dip? The one with the cream cheese, guacamole, salsa, lettuce, cheese, green onion and olives? Yea. That's the one. Well I had a craving for it the other day. Well, not exactly for it as I can never make anything the way it's suppose [...] -
If you go through the archives of GreenLiteBites I have about 5 total beef recipes. Five. Compare that to the 80+ I have tagged with chicken/turkey there's a clear winner in the meat department on my blog and in my home. I don't have a beef with beef (omg The Husband [...] -
I'm a kitchen sink smoothie maker. Whatever I have on hand goes in the blender and viola! A quick breakfast or a healthy snack. Last year I posted an "Elastic Approach" to how I make smoothies but I still like to share specific combinations that worked really well. This was one [...] -
The other night it was just the kids and I home for dinner and I decided to make what I wanted to make no holds barred. Without The Husband home it's much easier for some reason. Hmmm wonder why? Ok, not here to husband bash.. really.. I'm not! I'm here [...] -
*sigh* I was really hoping to share an awesome turkey burger idea. I had grand plans for my leftover ground turkey. The results was alright but they could have been so much better. I added diced pineapple, red pepper, green pepper, oats and soy sauce to the meat and formed 2 patties. In hindsight I [...] -
I made this on a total whim yesterday having no idea if it would work. To my surprise it did AND the husband actually said he liked it... UNSOLICITED! Here's the story. I had only 4 tilapia fillets defrosted for dinner. I knew it wasn't going to be enough for us [...] -
This is a slight reboot of a recipe I posted last year simply called Sweet Potato and Black Bean Chili. Staying true to my use-what-I-have-on-hand roots I, well, used what I had on hand and made a similar dish with a spicy twist. Topping the result with avocado added a cool creaminess that [...] -
Did you hear? The Laughing Cow recently launched Smooth Sensations a line of 5 cream cheese spreads. There's Classic Cream, Classic Cream Light, Strawberries & Cream, Garden Vegetable and my favorite… Cinnamon. It's a sweet wedge of creamy goodness! Today I decided to use my new favorite flavor [...] -
Confession time, I recorded a 30 minute video making this with both kids (partally) 2 nights ago. I miss videos. I really do but they seem so much more difficult with 2 children. I'm also having technical difficulties with my video recording and audio syncing making it VERY time consuming to edit. [...] -
A couple of years ago I shared a modified version of Sloppy Joe's I made for a party. Everyone loved it but I've been wanting to try to make something similar for the family on a smaller scale and without the pre-made canned Manwich sauce. I don't particularly have any issues [...] -
Yesterday I was dreaming about a salad. Not just any salad, but a chickpea filled, cucumber, and red onion salad with a fun, tangy dressing. Unfortunately, I had no cucumber or red onion. Well, that's a lie. I had a half of cucumber but it was a mushy mess and [...] -
Dinner meals are getting harder and harder for me to share lately. I've gone back to just whipping things up without really measuring anything (this meal was going to be one of those until I realized I still had enough light to take some photos.) I've also instituted a few brainless meal nights [...] -
Three years ago I posted a video called "Makin' Hard Boiled Eggs" where I shared my system for, well... making hard boiled eggs. Genius name, I know. I'm smart like that. Anyway, since then I've gotten tons of feedback and comments thanking me but all the information is locked in a long winded 10 minute [...]

Roni, just curious. On your intro you said you quit your real job (you know what I mean) and were doing the blog thing full time. Are you back to work work? Or are you back to work doing fulltime blog stuff? Just curious, I was so happy for you that you were able to make a living out of motivating all of us… hoping that it was working out, and that you are doing something you love. I have found SO MUCH motivation from your site… more than I’ve had in like, well, ever. Thank so much.
sleeping in the workout out clothes… maybe i should try that one. good idea.
Hope you had a great workout. Another hour just for you to start the day, Yah!
I love the idea of sleeping in your workout clothes!!! Whhhoooohooo!! I hope you had a good workout! Roni I bought the biggest loser game for Wii and I am lovin it!!
Hey Roni,
I live about an hour outside of Boston. Let me know if there is anything you need this weekend. I’d be happy to help :)
Roni, I work 2 jobs this time of year ( I work for a tax company in addition to my full time job) and even though I do not have children, I find it hard to get in everything I want to do. For the last two days, I have been getting up at 5 am to head to the gym. I don’t think you are crazy at all for getting up early. It is amazing how much exercising in the am energizes me for my day. And like you said, I don’t have to take time in the evening. The only downfall if there are not KettleBell classes at 5 am!
Sleeping in your work out clothes made me laugh out loud! It reminded me of a neighbor who use to have her son sleep in his school clothes for the next day so their mornings would go smoother. Hey, I say do what ever takes to stick to your routine.
Roni, I’ve read about you sleeping in your workout clothes and recently started doing it. My husband thinks it’s strange but if it wasn’t for your idea I would’ve backed out of a workout a handful of times.
Keep the ideas comin’!
Roni!

They are a food truck that specializes in healthy vegetarian fare.

Really, the only thing that got me to the gym this morning was the prospect of watching a little TV while on the elliptical machine – whatever it takes to get there. :) If you are having a meetup in Boston let me know.
I work in kendall square too- check out Hungry Mother for dinner http://www.hungrymothercambridge.com/ – Yummy!
