I started the day with a handful of mixed nuts and dried fruit. I made a cup of bedtime tea, Ashwagandha, from my favorite tea store in the Lower East Side called Flower Power Herbs & Roots (I get all my teas from them, including my matcha.)
#LAZARUS LYNCH COOKBOOK MOVIE#
If you know anything about me, you know ice in my drinks are a no-no the movies are the exception.Īfter the movie, we returned home and I needed a hot drink to cleanse from my movie indulgences. I love going to the movies because it’s pretty much the only time I eat what I’m about to share with you: a large popcorn coated in fake butter, salty nacho chips with the best artificial hot cheese sauce in the world, and a Coca-Cola with lots of ice. Later that evening, my family decided to go to the movies for the 8:53 p.m. No, I did not make a fourth trip to my local fish market, although had I thought of this in advance, shrimp and calamari would have been on the menu. The salad was heavenly, my family agreed, but we all wanted some fresh seafood with it like shrimp and calamari to round it all out. I searched the produce aisles high and low for basil, but of course, there was none. After debating whether or not it would be worth it to go back to the grocery store, I decided the panzanella deserved it so I schlepped my way to my closer, but not preferred local grocery store – trip three. While I prepared the salad, I realized what it desperately needed was fresh herbs specifically fresh basil. After I replaced the door knob, and cleaned up my kitchen, it was time to prepare the Panzanella. I live with my family so when one makes dinner, it must serve at least six people. I had the idea to make panzanella using some leftover homemade croutons from a Caesar salad I made a couple days before. The uglier the better for me.I sprinkled the entire shabang with Maldon sea salt, and shoved lunch part 2. I scrambled some eggs, sliced and toasted a piece of the loaf, and sliced into the juiciest, ugliest yet beautiful heirloom tomatoes I bought the day before at the Union Square Farmers Market. On the way home, I stopped at the Home Depot to get a new bathroom door knob handle (TMI).įinally home, lunch was calling my name big time. To my delight, he did not refuse me bread :). I asked for a manager, told him all about my sorrows and asked for a new loaf. Trip two: I headed back to the Stop & Shop, did I mention it was near but far, with receipt in hand to see if I could retrieve my bread. There, I got some of my favorite breakfast foods including tons of fresh fruit, a box of Nature’s Path Maple Pecan Crunch cereal (OMG I love!), and a loaf of multigrain sourdough bread to make several egg toasts.Īfter I reached home, I unpacked the bags and realized… no bread! Discouraged and hungry, I opened the box of the Nature’s Path cereal and satisfied myself with a bowl of sliced banana for lunch. I ran out of groceries so I made my list and headed to my preferred, near-but-far local grocery store, Stop & Shop. I picked up on some writing and researching for a new project I’m working on, and within a few hours I was ready for lunch. It’s just smoother than other brands (IMHO). On top of that, I made my ritual cup of matcha with my favorite Oat Leaf oatmilk, warmed. Because I’ve been fighting a cold, I added to that a mighty clove of garlic and a healthy spoonful of ground turmeric to help me fight.

I started the day with my daily green juice which is a combination of fresh spinach, celery, cucumber, oranges, green apples, ginger, and water. However, this day I made three deliberate trips to two grocery stores for multiple things. This may as well have been dubbed the “Day of the Supermarket Runnins.” I’m not a fan of grocery stores to begin with I’d rather just order online. Read all about in this week’s Grub Street Diet. This summer, the writer and video host published his first cookbook, Son of a Southern Chef, a book that’s an uninhibited, personal celebration of his family’s cooking and African-American foodways. Now he’s thinking about “what do I want to say now,” including in music - he’s working on his first album and “doing a lot, a lot more singing than ever before.” Of course, he’s also eating plenty well: sprinting to the train with Mister Softee and rogan josh in hand, eating his way through the Queens International Night Market, and freaking out over “divine” chocolate-chip cookies on Fire Island.

He is exactly the type of person who can make anyone feel like they know how to cook. Queens’ own Lazarus Lynch is charmingly enthusiastic, restless, and vivacious.
