Health Food on the Go

I promise this weekend to share some recipes,
but first let me share some of my favorite on the go health food.

i think this especially fitting since i'm going camping tomorrow!

1) Favorite Granola Bars

so yummy!
my favorite is the apricot and almond ones.

2) Favorite Protein Bar

Some have as close to 10 grams of protein per bar- which is great for vegetarians.

3) Favorite cereal


Cascadian Farm organic cereal in cinnamon crunch is unbelievable.

4) Favorite Sweet Treat

Bissenger's gummy pandas is not the usual gummy bear.
there are flavors such as green tea!  

5) Favorite To-Go Smoothie

Odwalla smoothies are high in protein and taste.

so those are my top 5 fav healthy treats.
i'll be gone the next 3 days camping in the woods and living off of those.
should be fun!

i've grown to love food so much, however, that I've created this blog to share with you the wonder of food, only.

you can still check out my other blog for all of my life happenings and to check out my creative outlet. 

the foodie monologues was started to document my food journey through life.
i love love love food and cooking.

i've been a vegetarian for the last 3 years and love to find new and exciting vegetarian dishes.
baking is my first love.  
especially cupcakes.
yes, i'm another cupcake lover with a blog.

i hope to one day open my own cafe and bakery.
for now, i'm a 17 year old high school student with big dreams.

i'm looking to study nutrition and business in college, and eventually go to culinary school.

this blog isn't just about recipes and cooking messes/successes.
it's about all the exciting food i discover in life.
i've been to some of the most amazing places to discover new food-
Paris, New York, Greece, Turkey, Costa Rice, and Canada to name a few.

I'm so excited to start this new food adventure.
