Foodie Friday

Hey there all you lovely people! Happy Friday!! Do you have any fun plans for the weekend? My plans include Ikea with a girlfriend, cleaning, laundry, and packing for vacation!

Having the summer off work, I have had time to try new places and spend time with more people. I wanted to share some of my recent favorite food finds.

ZEST JUICE CO.

This place is excellent! They have fresh juices, health shots, smoothies, and tasty food. My mom and I went the other day and I had a smoothie with strawberries, coconut milk, peanut butter, etc. I also had parmesan avacado toast. YUM!

Acacados, vegan parmesan, wheat toast, and greens.

CHOP 5

I have been wanting to try this place for a while now. They have build your own salads and bowls, as well as signature items.

I made a bowl with cilantro rice, peas, tomatoes, corn, edamame, chicken, and a jalepeno lime vinaigrette. My mom made a salad. I enjoyed my meal a lot and will definitely be back!

GRILLED CHICKEN LEGS

I love summer because we grill a lot. I love chicken legs and I can get a good amount for cheap.

I made a healthy marinade out of minced garlic in olive oil, lime juice, salt and pepper. Easy, but SO tasty!

SKINNY GIRL CHOCOLATE ALMONDS AND CHERRY YOGURT

This mixture is everything!! I love putting nuts in my yogurt, and when I saw the cherry flavor in my fridge I had to put something with chocolate in it. I had one pack of my skinny girl chocolate coated almonds (these are great by the way) and added them to my yogurt. Filling and delicious! I had this alongside of coffee and a lara bar!

There you have it! A few favorites from this week. What are you guys loving lately?!
