Half a grapefruit, piece of dark chocolate with almonds, tea

No effin' whey!
B- Multigrain hot cereal with raisins, nut butter, a bunch of seeds and almond milk mixed in. Also some coffee with cocoa powder (purchased at Trader Joe's) and a splash of almond milk
S- A small sweet potato and a scoop of Garden of Life raw meal powder with water
L- Steamed brown rice with taco seasoning, Yves veggie crumbles, Daiya pepper jack, sauteed mushrooms and leeks
D- Not sure yet, but I kinda wanna make vegan mac and cheese, maybe with a cauliflower and carrot based sauce. I bought some brown rice pasta that was marketed toward kids (fun shapes like animals, because sometimes it's fun to be a kid at heart) so what better use for it. I'll probably have that with some spinach or brussels sprouts

Vanilla soy latte from Starbucks, half a grapefruit, half a protein bar
Tofu quiche (spinach, broccoli, roasted red peppers, onions and Daiya cheddar shreds) with hot sauce; banana
I'm not sure about dinner. I'm feeling like some spicy tempeh, roasted potatoes and sauteed spinach and garlic...yeah, that's it.
ETA: Cinnamon baked apples currently in the oven. Dessert.

Orange, walnuts, tea
Tofu quiche topped with hot sauce with a side of roasted brussels sprouts (thank you, work cafeteria!)
Dinner will be a baked potato with broccoli and Daiya shreds and most likely more hot sauce, lol. I'm on a hot-sauce kick.
Dessert: Cinnamon baked apple (these came out so good last night)

Breakfast: Tofu scramble! (My first one ever, so I was very excited! xD ) Seasoned with liquid smoke, cumin and turmeric. I cooked some shredded kale, zucchini, celery, red cabbage, red pepper, mushrooms, green onion, and carrots into it. Avocado toast, and an apple on the side, and a glass of almond milk. Overall it was very pretty and super tasty!

Snack: A banana
Lunch: "The Big Vegan Bowl" -- over a bed of kale: quinoa, diced tomatoes, julienned carrot, sliced avocado, red cabbage, hemp seeds, roasted chickpeas (seasoned with cumin, turmeric, garlic powder, chilli powder, black pepper, and onion powder), and roasted yam (seasoned with a touch of Himalayan pink salt and garlic powder) with a dollop of hummus. Fresh strawberries on the side.
Snack: Snap peas, cucumbers, celery, and some cantaloupe.

Wow, Oasis, your scramble sounds fantastic!
Today:
Half a grapefruit, half a protein bar, tea
Roasted brussels sprouts and a fruit salad (I am craving fruit today!)
Dinner will be more tofu quiche (about ready to freeze the rest. I have had it every day this week, and as much as a love it, I want something different, lol) and a salad of mixed greens, red onions, green olives, pickles, shredded carrots, raisins and walnuts topped with a balsamic vinaigrette.

Today, I am having the usual breakfast of hot cereal and coffee
Snack will be a scoop of the raw meal powder I keep at the office, mixed with water
Lunch is the rest of my spaghetti squash and Yves veggie crumbles with some steamed brussels sprouts, carrots and tahini
Dinner will be a creative venture. All my fresh produce in the fridge consists of cauliflower, onion and garlic. Maybe I will turn them into a sauce to go with pasta and some veggies from the freezer.

YES!
All sounds delicious.
I had a few days of really extra posh food during the week, whilst catering for a group.
Seem to be eating mountains today though... like, just can't satiate myself.

Today is looking like a repeat of yesterday
Hot cereal and coffee/tea for breakfast
Veggie fried rice for lunch (steamed brown rice, tofu, mixed veggies from the freezer, sunflower seeds, nutritional yeast, liquid aminos, garlic powder and ginger powder)
Dinner is a couple of vegan chicken tenders (Trader Joe's/Gardein) linguine, broccoli and a sauce made from light canned coconut milk, fresh garlic, mushrooms, basil, nutritional yeast, salt and pepper (This was an improvisation last night, and a delicious one at that. So it bears repeating)

Here's that sushi from that day:
White bean marinated in sweet garlic vinegar, avocado, pickled carrots and sweet orange bell pepper. The rice I used was Bhutanese Red Rice as I was out of regular sushi rice, but it turned out awesome!
Yesterday:
Silverhills sprouted bread topped with avocado, cucumbers, cherry tomatoes and some leftover marinated white beans
Instant ramen noodles
A Tofutti fudge bar which was better than I expected
And for dinner, this freaking delicious penne with avocado alfredo sauce.
This morning, I ate the leftovers for breakfast. Too stuffed now. But mmmmm that was good.

Oh Mary - that is totally epic!!! I can taste it as it leaps out of the page!
Wow - what an awesome idea. I'll have to give that one a whirl! You super star you.

Breakfast... I was going to make a smoothie with mango; until I started eating the mango; then I felt JUST MANGO was the best thing ever, so it never made it to the blender.
Lunch... sprouted sunflower seed pesto with salad (including a pile of green leaves fresh from my garden
).
A little bit of chocolate and nuts for snack in between.
I made biscuits. New recipe - a sort of tasty mixed spice, zesty biscuit, using spelt flour. Delicious. First time I've eaten gluten since January 1st 2104. Deeelicious.
Enjoyed them after an afternoon of gardening.
Dinner... Millet with organic sweetcorn with tamari & hemp oil and a thick dense broccoli, apple & celery salad (dressed to make it taste great).
More home made biscuits and a cup of Pukka 'relax' tea.
