Arugula Topped With Tomatoes And Avocado

This meal is easier to make than to write a post about it. Even an intro takes more time. So why are we wasting the time? Let’s get rolling Foodies!

Pita Bread Salad with Tomatoes and Cucumber (Fattoush)

Nothing like a fresh salad with an interesting twist. Bring in some crunch from the toasted pita bread and vivid colors from the tomatoes and green leaves topped with the mind-blowing taste of chopped mint and cilantro. All these beautiful elements put and assembled by the heart-healthy extra-virgin olive oil. Let’s get greening Foodies!

Home Made Thick Cut Steak

I always wanted to learn how to prepare a steak at home. And this time I was more than happy. The recipe has been inspired by the amazing book by Kenjiz Lopez ‘The Food Lab’.  This meal is not the leanest and definitely belongs to non-compliant category but what life would be without a treat once in a while, right? Remember that deprivation is the biggest risk in consistent healthy life style. Plus this meal was fortified with a huge salad, brussels sprouts and green beans. I am not saying this is an excuse to have this not the leanest cut of beef. But I also shared this with my beloved wifey so the damage to my six pack has been cut in half.

VANILLA PEANUT BUTTER CHEESECAKE

Another day, another  cheesecake variety. Always about variety. Just adding a little bit of peanut butter makes this cheesecake peanut butterish in a good way. Tastes perfect after an exhausting workout session and goes perfectly with a short, strong espresso. Let’s get desserting Foodies!

Rise And Shine Spinach Enhanced Eggs

Just the eggs. So no big deal but enhanced with fresh spinach to make it healthy and enriched with 4 slices of authentic Spanish chorizo sausage for making it taste like the real thing.

BROWNIE EXPLOSION

One of these days you have to break some of the healthy eating rules. Otherwise it would be just another diet. A diet is a flawed concept in itself. I was doing it I admit. But not any more. Life is so much better nowadays. I can not believe how many people follow diets in the classic way. Deprivation for a period of whatever but usually a month or so before they blow it all. WorkWeekFoodie is diet-agnostic. It’s about enjoying food with nutrients but sometimes I like to break all the rules. This recipe is exactly doing this. Let’s get breaking Foodies!
