…does not mean Thanksgiving’s over.
I think my first-day-of-December eats sanction this statement.
I woke up with the always-gratifying feeling of knowing exactly what I wanted for breakfast.
“Pumpkin pie” addiction.
Delicioso as this may be, 1 egg white + 1/2 cup pumpkin + a dollop of greek yogurt does not equate to breakfast.
So I threw together a grande bowl of cereal. This, admittedly, does not fit the Thanksgiving eats theme—but the colors are quite autumnal, aren’t they?
Kashi Honey Sunshine, almond milk, PB chips and a spoonful of cashew butter.
I’m still not feeling the cashew butter. I figured I’d give it another shot, but it’s really too understated a taste for my liking. Very triste.
Luckily, I’d anticipated that it wasn’t going to be any better this time around and included the PB chips for a nut butter boost. Sometimes I’m inteligente.
This desayuno was still wondrous due to my cereal superstar, Honey Sunshine. I’m really not a cereal person, but this better-than-Cap’n Crunch Kashi creation hits the spot every time. The addition of the PB chips took it to a Peanut Butter Cap’n Crunch level.
But back to Thanksgiving-esque eats.
Lunch featured my favorite new jelly.
Cranberry pomegranate pepper jelly. Sweet, spicy, pepper seedy seduction. It really needn’t be said, but I’m in love.
Mi amor nuevo played the role of cranberry sauce in this Thanksgiving leftovers-that-didn’t-actually-utilize-any-Thanksgiving-leftovers wrap.
In the whole wheat wrap: thick layer of cream cheese, thicker layer of cranberry pomegranate pepper jelly, honey maple turkey and pumpkin.
This flavor medley was ridiculous. I don’t want Thanksgiving eating to end. Ever.
Afternoon snackage stayed the TG route.
1 cup applesauce, 1 cup pumpkin, 2 tbsp. maple syrup warmed in the microwave.
AMAZING. Please try this ahora.
What’s that in the center? Oh, just a Food Should Taste Good CINNAMON chip.
Another cosa that your taste buds need to become acquainted with A.S.A.P. These chips seriously taste like churros. I’d intended to eat my pumpkin applesauce with that spoon—but cinnamony churro chips ended up serving that function 
.
Dinner appears to have nothing to do with Thanksgiving. However, it was an assortment of TG weekend leftovers… so I’m ruling that it fits the theme.
First up: Pearl Room leftovers.
Mucho leftover vegetable risotto.
A tiny bit of hummus salmon.
And to keep things interesante, leftover Chinese.
Peanut chicken and string beans over brown rice from Lai Yuen.
Sorry for not plating la comida—but I think leftovers taste mucho mejor when eaten straight from the container 
.
December 1st ended on a similar Thanksgiving note as it began.
What’s under that marshmallow layer?
Mas pumpkin pie, of course.
Except dessert didn’t end there porque…
…when leftover banana strawberry nutella french toast is delivered to your doorstep, you embrace this season of delectable eating and oblige.
And there you have my first-day-of-December, I’m-still-in-a-Thanksgiving-state-of-mind eats.
Lo siento for such a rushed post, but I was busy all day and now I’m rushing off to a hot date with a stunning, snack-loving amiga. I’m sure you’ve got an idea who I’m dining with esta noche .
Amor,
Sarah
I love how you used your leftovers. I also really like Kashi Honey Sunshine, but am not a fan of cashew butter. Not sweet enough for me.
Dang girl you make cranberry, turkey & PUMPKIN look GOOD!!
And I agree 100% on the leftovers deal- always better straight outta tha doggie bag
Cinnamon chips that taste like churros?? I need to get summa those ASAP!
I swear Kashi honey sunshine is Cap’n crunch in mini form — Kashi should totes come out with crunch berries. I’d die.
though I am all for December and holiday cheer, I am going to miss the autumnal eats. Le sigh.
enjoy tu cena, chica!
Leftovers never looked so good. Genius to put the pb chips in cereal!
The pb chips in your cereal are so genius. Love the t-giving day eats. That jelly sounds phenom. Have fun with your date tonight
THANK GOODNESS I AM EATING SOON, these pics are making my mouth water.

Thanksgiving leftovers are the BEST! We just finished our’s up, very triste!
I bet that pepper jelly is amazing… have you ever tried pepper jelly on top of a block of cream cheese for appetizers and dipping crackers in it so you get a cream cheese and pepper jelly in the same bite?! If not you MUST try it, I promise amiga, you will be in amor!
Wow, your spanish lessons are working, haha (I think? hehe)!
Have a lovely dinner!!
Yum, you’re in a pumpkin craze but everything looks tasty!
I wish I can find PB chips, so far I’ve been using left over chocolate chips from thanksgiving in my oats.
I LOVE kashi sunshine!
I’m also loving that wrap too
mmmm chinese food leftovers! jealous!
I don’t really like pumpkins but the nutella french toast looks amazing
It’s always a pleasure to read you and see the photos 
everytime i eat kashi honey sunshine i feel like i’m eating french toast!
loving your thanksgiving inspired wrap…thats one of my fav. parts about the holiday…LEFTOVERS!
banana strawberry nutella french toast?!…i have no words!
have fun tonight!
Your allowed to still be in Thanksgiving mode…no shame. Lavish in the leftovers while you still can
There is NOTHING better than Thanksgiving leftovers.. Besides Chinese food leftovers.
JEAL-OUS!
bec xo
YAY for the PB chip addition! I used to love Peanut Butter Capn’ Crunch – what a great combo! Nutella French toast? That sounds so decadent!
That TDay inspired wrap looked muy delicicioso! And you are right, leftovers do taste better straight out of the container. Have fun with your snack-loving amiga!
mmmm I heart anything with pumpkin
that leftover banana strawberry nutella french toast looks insanely good.
i havent had nutella in a couple yrs. I think I need to get back on it, stat.
I’ve always wondered how bloggers can eat that pumpkin pancake for breakfast. its like negative 100 calories?! Sounds delicious though- just not something to be eaten by its lonesome.
Kashi cereal is pretty much like crack to me. Those boxes never last more than a couple of days and it’s just me who is dipping into them!
Even though I don’t eat meat, everything you ate looked delicious! Especially the french toast
YUMM to the french toast!!! & love the pb chips in your cereal
xoxo

I don’t know why I’ve never combined cranberry/cheese/pumpkin – it looks unbelievable. Hope your date was fun!
shoo girl…i still need to try those pumpkin pancakes. however, i might need to add lotsa brown sugar because for some reason, i cannot eat pumpkin without sweetener.
yay for dates with snackface…gah, i only wish i could be there. your dindin looked AMAZING! and i know we could chat until the wee hours of the night.
i know you have mentioned this, but what is your background? because you are GORGE!!!!
I love all your Thanksgiving leftovers.
Thanksgiving leftovers rock! Love it..The turkey wrap looks awesome!
that jelly sounds amazing! and the combo of the turkey and pumpkin-delish and oh so festive, love it
woooo PB chips in cereal, now thats a bowl
I actually like cashew butter…..I haven’t met a nut butter I don’t like.
Just because December has begun….does not at ALL mean that the pumpkin’ loving must stop! People eat pumpkin pie on christmas too
Sooo that maple turkey/TG-themed wrap is calling me (with some tofurkey, of course!)….seriouslyy calling meeeee!
And yess pb chips make anything fab, except i do remember that butterscotch are for some reason even better!! have you tried?? think about it….butterscotch, peanut butter oatmeal! MMM
Since you didn’t do me wrong with those lime chips (mom and I killed the bag, fo sho), those cinnamon ones will be next on my list over winter break! YESS!
oh ps, have you seen this week’s gg yet?! HOW GOOD WAS IT!? love you girl!!
I’m totally not into the cashew butter either…weird because I love nut butters and I love cashews. A simple case of two rights making a wrong. But I AM into your pumpkin pies!!
