My cousins gave me the Oh She Glows Cookbook for Christmas and since I follow her blog, I was really excited to try out her recipes. I tried out two yesterday and it was the day after Christmas, and I made the baked oatmeal for breakfast today. Too eager? I think not.

Usually on 40* nights in December I’m not in the mood to have a salad, but after a weekend of rich food and desserts I was craving something light and healthy. This salad looked like it was hearty enough for a cold night with the grilled veggies, but light enough to feel good about it. I would recommend it if you’re also in a holiday food coma to change things up. Here’s the recipe from the cookbook if you want to try this out.

Another challenge- getting Louis off the food so that I can take a picture.
