-tofu pad Thai. Tea
-lentil burger with broccoli, cauliflower & cucumber yoghurt
-maybe some dark chocolate with crystallised ginger later (& hot chocolate! Still haven't made that hot choc.)

I am being a total vegan chef today..... I was feeling a bit fed up (being flooded out by the extreme weather n'all), but creating tasty dishes really cheered me up.

Maca, banana & coconut smoothie
Thick Avocado sauce poured onto lots of greens with some sprouted sunflower seed basil pesto
Gluten free vegan, lentil lasagne with a cashew sauce on top (really chuffed with that one :))
Gluten free fig slices

Yesterday:

Breakfast: Oatmeal with chia seeds, hemp seeds, flax seeds, pumpkin seeds, frozen blueberries, cinnamon and almond milk.
Snack: Apple, celery with peanut butter
Lunch: Quinoa with roasted chickpeas, green onions, cucumber, orange peppers, kale and a zesty vinaigrette.
Snack: Navel orange, and a few baby carrots with hummus for a dip.
 
Kind of a convenience day because I had to stay overnight at a hotel so that I could get to work in the snow, so no cooking until I get home:

Clif builder bar, tea
Granny Smith apple with peanut butter
Dinner will be a buffalo seitan sandwich on a roll with caramelized onions and green olives. And beer. :D

Yesterday:
Carob, pear & banana coconut smoothie
Curried potatoes and all sorts of nice salad from my local veggie cafe.
Delicious piece of gluten free vegan chocolate cake
Vegan crustless quiche (with mushrooms, cilantro, parsley and onion - made with chickpea flour) along with a delicious creamy avocado salad.

I've gone into major 'create new recipes' overdrive and am really enjoying it.
 
Cereal and coffee
A couple apples
Pasta with sauteed onion, bell pepper, mushrooms, spinach, herbs, spices and hot sauce
We went out for dinner to celebrate my fiance's brother's birthday. He chose a Friendly's type family-run restaurant with a surf and tuft type menu and a dairy bar. I lucked out and they had a marinated portabella sandwich on the menu that was really solid and came with a mixed greens side salad

Chickpea salad sandwich on sprouted bread; tositoes and salsa
Dinner will be something new. I'm not sure yet, but I think it will involve either tempeh or tofu.
Iced coffee with almond milk
I'm going easy on desserts this week because I'm going to my nephew's wedding, so I know I will be indulging. :D

Better stay away from me then - I've gone a bit overboard this week with chocolate cake and fig slices - the trouble is they taste so good.

It's been a while since I last posted...mostly because I've been spending too much time on instagram! :p
Over the past two days, all my meals have consisted of pizza. Including breakfast. So, my meals today were/are pretty plain.

B: tofu scramble with kale and mushrooms
L: handmade ramen noodles in shiitake broth with q-tofu and wood fungus
D: Red thai eggplant curry on rice and banana "ice cream"

Pizza for breakfast?! I wonder what a breakfast pizza looks like - maybe topping made from yogourt, raisins and breakfast cereal? :p

hehe well, it wasn't planned so the pizza for breakfast wasn't very breakfast-y. On friday night, I tried a new recipe for "mozerella." It was so tasty, I just wanted to use it again...and again..and again! Hence, pizza weekend. Four types of pizza over two days...I may have over done it.

I love pizza for breakfast because I prefer savoury food in the morning . However you can also have a sweet pizza at anytime ; this reminds me that I must post a chocolate and pistachio pizza recipe in the recipe forum.:thanks: for the reminder.

I could eat pizza every single day until it comes out of my ears.:p
