Breakfast at Home

Can you tell I like pepper?

Growing up, I was used to having a typical middle eastern breakfast: cheese, vegetables, and pita bread. As I got older, I tired of this breakfast, hating when my mom or dad would serve it to me. I wanted anything but this boring old cheese and bread combo. But now, I love it. Living so far away from home, I miss this simple breakfast of my childhood and I'm always happy to come home and eat it. So this morning I did just that. Armenian string cheese, cucumbers, tomatoes, avocado, and onions. I make mini sandwiches of it with my whole wheat pita bread and it is de-lish. Top it off with a cup or five of coffee, and this is one of my favorite breakfasts.

Airport Breakfast

Now I know this isn't everyone's typical breakfast, but the salad bar in the food court looked so good! I usually eat the most disgustingly unhealthy foods when I travel, but today I chose some lighter fare. I'm flying from Syracuse to LA for my Thanksgiving break, and my first flight was at 6 am. That means I've been up since 4. Considering it's almost 9, it feels like lunch time to me. So I guess a salad works. I had some mixed greens, carrots, cucumbers, chickpeas, chicken, olives, onions, croutons, and parmesan cheese. It was delish.
