I'm heading to warmer climates tomorrow for a little r&r. I love traveling but when going away, even for a few days I always feel that I need to clean out the fridge, take out the garbage and leave my house in order. I am not one of those leave it for when I return type of gals. Therefore, today was filled with culinary delights meant to use up any leftover produce that was lingering in the confines of my fridge .

For breakfast I had coconut chia pudding with mangos. Who knew that chia pudding was so easy to make? A little coconut, some coconut milk, vanilla, and chia seeds and you are good to go!

Lunch consisted of a smoothie bowl loaded with kale, spinach, cucumber, avocado and coconut milk, blending until smooth and creamy then topped with sliced banana, mango, flax seeds, and cacao nibs with a drizzle of honey. I'm telling you, today was a great day for eating.

Finally, I had a few more items to use up, a half of a watermelon and some leftover celeriac from my Christmas Lasagna. I sliced the celeriac into sticks, squared the watermelon, threw in some feta cheese and make a delicious avocado dijonnaise that just made it all come together. I hope that you enjoy!

Celeriac, Watermelon, and Feta Salad with Avocado Dijonnaise

2 cups of sliced Celeriac (matchstick style)

1/2 Watermelon, cubed

1/2 cup Olive Oil

1/4 tsp Pink Himalayan Sea Salt

1/4 cup Water + up to 2 tbs more depending on your preferred thickness
