When I’m in a time crunch, I love to make… a granola bowl with bananas, mangoes, blueberries, peanut butter, and agave nectar.

Foods I must have in my home are… plant-based milk, avocados, bananas, mangoes, old-fashioned oats, peanut butter, sourdough bread.

I can’t eat/cook ______ without making a mess: Marinara sauce and spaghetti

My most interesting food habit is… storing snacks in different bags or coats in case I get hungry somewhere.
