TGIF! And what better way to start out a Friday then a trip to the farmer’s market!
At this weeks UIC farmer’s market I bought a green bell pepper, an onion, a tomato, green beans, and bartlett pears!
I also could not pass up a cute little stand selling vegan muffins. I ended up buying a Masala Chai vegan muffin, which included a delicious mixture of Indian spices and herbs. It ended up being the PERFECT fall breakfast — it was so moist, spicy, and flavorful!
I am off to the gym, an American Dietetics Association seminar, and then some shopping downtown!
Happy Friday everyone!
