Quick and Easy Breakfast

Wow! It has been another hectic week. With the start of the new summer semester, I have been slowly adjusting to the regular routine again. However, having only one online course has proven to be a struggle when it comes to getting into the rhythm of things. I go to work more often and study less than usual. I continue to go on weekend adventures and exploring different hiking trails two to three times a week. No matter how my schedule looks like, I am still VERY, very busy!

With so many things to do every week and so less time, making breakfast can turn into a war zone in the kitchen. Fortunately, I discovered a fast and easy breakfast that will not only give me the energy I need for the day, but save me time in the process: Scrambled eggs style omelette and homemade hashbrowns. See below for the recipe!

Ingredients
2 Eggs
1 Cup of Spinach
1 Large White Potato (Or 2 White nugget potatoes)
Salt and Pepper, to taste
1/4 Onion, Sliced
1 Teaspoon of Milk
Olive Oil
~1 Teaspoon of finely chopped dill
1 Teaspoon of minced garlic

Instructions (Approximately 10 Minutes)
1. Dice Potatoes into small cubes and mix together salt, pepper, dill, and a drizzle of olive oil
2. Heat pan to medium heat and add potatoes, garlic, and onions. Cook until potatoes are golden brown and translucent
4. While the potatoes cook, beat eggs and add milk in a bowl. Add a pinch of salt and pepper and mix it into the mixture
3. Transfer potato to a plate and set aside. Leave any olive oil residue in the pan
4. Add spinach into the pan and add a bit of water. Close lid and let the spinach steam.
5. Add egg mixture and spread out spinach on the pan. Slowly bring the mixture towards the centre of the pan while it cooks.

Midweek Madness

Midweek is always the craziest, meaning that I have little to no time to cook. For this week's unexpected midweek dine out, I visited Banzai Sushi House to eat some sushi to fill my empty stomach. Cheap, fast, and enormous portions, this small sushi house is the place to go when you are busy, hungry, and living on a small budget (typical student life!). Were does everyone go for cheap eats?

Whistler Features: MOOOOOOOO!

On a hot sunny day next to mother nature, one can only imagine relaxing under the trees...eating ice cream! ...At least that was me.

Nearly EVERYTHING in the shop is Cow related. Take this "Moovenger" shirt for example. I killed myself laughing with all the Cow puns in the store. Since Cows is famous for their ice cream, I decided to try their Oreo Cookie Ice Cream and Cookie Dough Ice Cream. I finally understood why there are always long line ups for ice cream out the door. The ice cream was DELICIOUS! It was soft enough to eat, yet hard enough to retain its perfect spherical shape. I also loved how their ice cream contains just the right amount of Oreo cookies and cookie dough. Many ice cream shops often serve ice cream with too little toppings mixed in. Another great perk of Cows is that ...
