Air Fryer Orange Ginger Tofu Slaw Salad

By Amber Woods on Saturday, April 6, 2024

I’m going through a love affair with tofu. I know it’s not the best for my body being oh-so-chock full of soy, but tofu is one of my guilty pleasures. If eating tofu a few times a week is one of the worst things my body is ingesting then I guess it’s not that bad! …

Working in customer service is so hard. And it’s a lot harder when people are dicks and you can’t eat carbs. After a day at work when people cuss me out as I pick up carloads of trash, throw their dirty used diapers at my feet and tell me I’m an elitist for refusing to …

Hike. Jeep. Repeat. Big Bear's only outdoor adventure guide
Amber Woods
Amber Woods

Hi y’all! I’m Amber, Big Bear Lake’s local Hungry Mountaineer hiking nature guide. I grew up here in the San Bernardino National Forest. I have basically been out exploring hiking trails and enjoying the wilderness as long as I could walk. I have had some amazing adventures out here in the gorgeous San Bernardino Mountains over the years. As a alpine adventure enabler who is passionate about the wilderness, I love to share my knowledge of our vast trail system with vacationers who also love the great outdoors. Looking to book a hiking excursion? Email me at Hungrymountaineer@gmail.com for the best locals-only hikes available in this mountain wilderness. I am passionate about finding my balance in life – healthy living, great food, outdoor fitness, traveling adventures, working hard and my unbridled love for racehorses and naturally, gambling. When I’m not exploring news trails or betting on the ponies you can find me either coming up with healthy new recipes or blogging about the adventures my trail pup and I had in the wilderness this week. I have spent most of my life exploring what these mountains have to offer and locals would call me an expert and a backcountry Snack Sherpa. I know the best hiking and biking trails in these mountains and I have chronicled most of my hikes and adventures on this website. Please get in touch is you have any questions.
