Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups

AH Happy St. Patrick's Day everyone!!

Ok I'm turning into my mother with these cheesy internet pictures. Oh well :)

Ok so I'm super late with this post (and others which I'll hopefully be able to post later today)

But here's one that I put up on my instagram a little bit ago

They were SOOOOOOO GOOD. You should definitely give them a try.

Peanut Butter, Banana, & Jelly Challah French Toast.

Now that's a mouthful...well the name of the recipe AND this dish.

I had made some Vegan Challah bread for the first time last night and it was delicious  I'm not posting the recipe though because I still want to perfect it, it definitely could use some work.

But this I made for my roommate when I had a revelation and wanted to get rid of the challah because I couldn't stop eating!

So this is what I whipped up (My roommates love me :D)

Mean Green Smoothie...with PB

So on instagram (mine is lekiss_renee if you would like to follow) I joined into eatworkoutrepeat and watch_me_shrink 's makeithappenmarch photo challenge.

And today's first post is in celebration of National Peanut Butter Lover's Day!

I had something exciting planned but I have been running late all day (which I of course am now...I have work in an hour and haven't showered.)

But quickly I'll share what I made!

Mother's Market Grocery & Restauraunt... (AKA the greatest place on earth)

So on this blog, I plan to have some reviews...I guess you could call them...of different local whole food stores and vegan restaurants and then I'll post a bit about them and what not.

So what better place to start than with my first (and definitely not last) trip to Mother's Market in Costa Mesa!

Before I went perusing around the grocery part of the store, my friend and I visited the restaurant in the back, which was vegan.

And I had this:

It was a (my first) vegan burger made with high protein tempeh, vegenaise, tomatoes, bean sprouts, lettuce, grilled onions, grilled mushrooms, and the most delicious guacamole I ever tasted. And a side of steamed veggies. That burger was in the top 5 burgers I've ever had. I canNOT wait to (at least try) and recreate this at home. Seems simple enough.

So NOW onto the grocery part of the place.

Simple Peanut Butter Smoothie

It can't get any easier than this...but in case you were wondering:

Bump's On a Log (celery, PB, & cranberries)

Ahh nostalgia at it's finest...now I know you're thinking...Alexis, do we really need a recipe for this?

Well...no. But I'm going to post one anyway :)
