Blackened Tofu Blacked tofu on top of some kind of salad is one of my go to restaurant orders. I'm always elated when a restaurant offers tofu as one of their protein options.

I started with two almost brown bananas, too soft to be eaten by themselves. One apple that, to be honest had seen better days. … Continue reading Breakfast Smoothie
