Leftover Chinese food. One of my friends took me out to dinner to celebrate my new home. I had seitan with asparagus in a brown sauce. It was delicious.

@shyvas - I see you drink Chilean Chardonnay often. What do you like about Chilean?

Dinner tonight is going to be a veggie burrito with Better Than Sour Cream and maybe a glass of rose.

I'm a big fan of Chilean wines including other new world ones. It is all about the new techniques that are used together with the soil and fabulous climate. I'm a big fan of red wine especially when it is full bodied and Chilean wines are usually excellent.

When I'm in the UK I often try different types as there is far more choice than over here. I'm always surprised by the quality and excellent value.
As I don't drink a lot, I never open a big bottle of red as I don't like the taste of it the following day due due to the oxydation process.

My next adventure is to taste some sparkling English wine from Kent.

DH and I went to an art show tonight, so we ate dinner late. We shared a spinach, cranberry and walnut salad and a pizza with eggplant, spinach, grape tomatoes and mushrooms. The salad came with goat cheese, so we ordered the cheese on the side so DH could have it, and the pizza had an option to have Daiya instead of mozzarella, and we chose that option. (DH eats Daiya happily, but always chooses real cheese over no cheese :(). We had a Sauvignon Blanc, which was reported to be from Chile, and it was lovely. However, when we actually read the label on the bottle, it was from Argentina.

We grilled a couple of eggplants tonight. I made a lemon tahini sauce to go with. The rest was French bread, heirloom tomatoes, sautéed baby spinach, basil from the yard, pickled onions and shredded FYH mozzarella. And the rest of the Argentinian Sauvignon Blanc from dinner out last night. Divine!
 
1/2 a soya nugget served with French green beans, cauliflower mash with a drizzle of olive oil plus a sprinkle of yeast flakes and a cucumber salad with vinaigrette.

I have a yogurt a few strawberries for later on.

I made some seitan (Lincolnshire style) with the wheat gluten that I ordered. I served it thinly sliced with a salad ; batavia, diced tomatoes, peas, diced cucumbers, Greek black olives with a vinaigrette linseed/olive oil, lemon juice plus yeast flakes. A couple of slices of black olive and rosemary focaccia with walnut spread.

Apricots and strawberries for dessert.

A small glass of Chilean Chardonnay.

We're trying to eat healthy during the week these days. So tonight it will be whole wheat spaghetti with Dave's heirloom tomato sauce, sautéed mushrooms, grilled eggplant, and baby spinach, with a side of seitan-based meatballs for DH (for the extra protein).
 
I wasn't really sure, thought about what I had here... so it's gonna be the last of the Supergreens rotini, plus the bag (already steamed) of broccoli & cauliflower, some evoo & herbs, lots o' nooch, the last little bit of my cashew cheese sauce, too.... should be pretty rockin'.... :)
