Adama Vegan Restaurant in Santa Barbara!

went on some errends yesterday and when i was done. I thought about the fact that I havn't been down at Adama's in awhile! So i went in for some ice green tea and dinner to go!

I drank the Green Tea in an instant! Best green tea I've ever tasted! I go and get green tea at various places, but honestly, Adama's is soo much better!

Got the Grilled Cheeze sandwich on sourdough bread with a side of salad with lemon vinaigrette dressing! The BEST grilled cheeze I've ever had. Better than what I have made myself!



soo yummyyy <3


I have no food at my apartment whatsoever (I need to go grocery shopping soon!!), so I decided to come back to my favorite place!

I just got iced green tea & a bagel with cream cheese.



And then I wanted something for lunch so I got a Knish to go!



It came with spicy honey mustard!




I always feel like Adama's does it better. Best food ever. You just feel amazing after you eat their food.

Yummy Sandwich Idea! Peanut Butter, Banana, and Seed Sandwich with side of Strawberries!

And its super nutritious too! I love to make this a breakfast sandwich because this is the type of food that will give you energy for the rest of the day!

Multigrain bread provides a multitude of vitamins and minerals, more likely than regular wonderbread (which are bleached out vitamins and minerals!)
Basically, the less a food is processed, the much more better it is for your health!

Bananas, as well know, are a great source of potassium, and may also promote adequate bone health!
how exciting is that!

Peanut Butter is a good fat food, essential for brain's functioning! It also promotes great heart health!

Seeds are another good fat food, that is essential for brain's functioning! They have anti-inflammatory effects that help prevent against arthritis! They are a healing food for joints!

Strawberries contain a good source of vitamin C, adequate for eliminating free radicals in your body! Thus, it is a great anti-cancer property! Strawberries are also a good source of iron!



What you need:
Sprouted Multigrain Bread,
Peanut Butter
Seeds such as Pumpkin & Sunflower seeds
Strawberries (on the side!)

Directions:
Toast your Sprouted Multigrain Bread
Once toasted, spread your Peanut Butter on both sides of the bread
Cut up half of the Banana and create slices, then spread them on one side of the sandwich
sprinkle Pumpkin & Sunflower Seeds on the other side of the sandwich
Form the sandwich and cut in half!
For a side dish, grab your strawberries, cut the top off and then cut the strawberries in half
(you can use as much strawberries as you'd like!)

Ready for eating! Enjoy! <3

Hello Summer June 2011!

I had ONE week off of school. Not enough. Its a space between one level to another, so I'm entering into level II of my nursing program!

When driving through Montecito in Santa Barbara at times, I would always drive by Scoops and always wondered, "would they have any non-dairy/vegan sorbet? It looks like a place where they could possibly .


One day, decided to go there and find out. And also to walk and sit at Butterfly Beach :)
It was a foggy day. But the beach oh so beautiful :)

So, walking in the cute ice cream shop, I did learn there are non-dairy options! I was so excited and bought half strawberry and half blackberry sorbet! The strawberries and blackberries come from the local farmers market, so it is definatly fresh and organic! This seriously tasted like a great strawberry and blackberry ice cream :)

I was in Los Angeles the other day and my good friend whom I was hanging out with decided on getting something from Millions of Milkshakes since we were driving past it on Santa Monica Blvd!
I had heard in the past Millions of Milkshakes had vegan options! So it was definatley not something to question! I've wanted to try it out as well!

I got a vegan ice cream with berries (they're at the bottom) and oreos!

Yesterday I took myself out to dinner before heading back up to Santa Barbara. I went into Truly A Vegan Restaurant on the Hollywood Blvd. I heard that its a pretty popular spot with great food! It was slow when I came in due to it being fathers day. But the people who worked there were so so nice, friendly, wonderful service, and even though I was practically the only person in there, I still got a window seat! The people who work there treat you so kindly! This one woman came in for a take-out, and she raved about how this is the best place for vegan food in Los Angeles, and that she only comes here for the best vegan food! She said she had been going there for 7 years and never was let down by their food!

Not only is it good, but its definatly an affordable price to go out and eat at! Plus! You can have your food for delivery! They also serve breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert! :D

I ordered the Simply Seitan with side of potatoes, broccoli and vegan ranch dressing! So yummy! :D

After I put ketchup and chili sauce! :)

After dinner, I got coconut ice cream! i'm in love. this has made it official that i actually do love coconut ice cream!

After coming home to beautiful Santa Barbara view outside my window! Makes me love living here! <3

Amsterdam Coffee Paso Robles!

So, after all these years I've lived in the San Luis Obispo area, I just recently found out about Amsterdam in Paso Robles.
But then, it kind of makes sense that I havn't heard of it til now because I havn't really been in Paso in two years! Haha!

My dear girl friend from that area invited me for tea there, and honestly, I love love it! Everything is organic, and they have a wide selection of teas! It's a coffee house so, yes, there is coffee, and different kinds!. I just had been in a tea craze lately!

Another thing is that in their sugar/sweetener selection they include Stevia packets for you to put in your coffee or tea!
So wonderful!

The most popular tea they have is the Coconut Creme!
