I'm not sure about dinner. I probably will work late, so I might get some takeout, perhaps Mexican.

 

[PTree15]

Toast with EB and peanut butter, tea
Two iced coffees with almond milk
Potato-kale soup, from our work cafeteria. It was surprisingly tasty. Many of the vegan soups are bland, but this one was really good.
Hummus with carrots
Orange
I ended up eating not eating dinner last night, as it got crazy-busy at work, so tonight I think I will make a Gardein chik'n strip grinder with buffalo sauce and melted Daiya cheddar and maybe sauteed peppers and onions. Epic sandwich!

 

[KLS52]

I made my Thai curry vegetable stew. I had some with quinoa for dinner.

Breakfast was a tofurkey sandwich.

Lunch was a bean salad.

I had watermelon and a pear in between.

And cashew cream ice cream.

 

[PTree15]

So I ended up having to work late, as it got busy toward the end of the day (figures!). Instead of cooking, because I was completely lazy, I treated myself to a wonderful dinner/dessert at ION Restaurant in Middletown, CT. I had what they called Mediterranean Napoleon, which was a medley of seitan sausage, broccoli and mushrooms (yes, I ate mushrooms), and carrots in a tangy sauce sandwiched between puff pastry and served with roasted potatoes and greens sauteed in garlic and olive oil. It was one of the specials, and it was deeeeelicious. Dessert was a chocolate cake with disgustingly (in a good way) sweet peanut butter frosting. It was three layers, enough for three people to eat. So yeah, I have leftovers! I also had a vegan wine called Red Truck. It was a red blend and it was dang good.

 

[KLS52]

My favorite restaurant!!! *jealous*

 

[PTree15]

We will have to have a meal there together sometime! It's 10 minutes from where I live. I am soooo lucky!

 

[KLS52]

My daughters promised me a lunch there, soon. If we ever make a plan I'll let you know!

 

[PTree15]

That would be great!

 

[Oasis]

B Green smoothie of banana, mango, almond milk, spinach and Chia seeds

L Mango and a big bowl of mixed raw veggies with hummus

D watermelon and another smoothie.

Today was extremely hot. The sort of day where the thought of food is appalling. Hence all the cold food.

 

[Oasis]

Today was even hotter, but I was a bit hungrier.

B - Green smoothie of banana, mango, Chia seeds almond milk and spinach

L - Curried carrot slaw sandwich on a Multigrain bun with vegenaise, mustard and spinach

D - An apple, celery with homemade salsa, a small berry smoothie.

And for dessert I had pineapple flavor coconut bliss. Yum yum

 

[PTree15]

Hiya, Oasis! Long time, no see.
I am going all raw today, as I had a (not-good) carb-filled weekend.
I've had a banana-blueberry smoothie so far
Lunch will be a nice big salad with balsamic vinaigrette
Dinner will likely be a fruit salad of sorts. I'm really craving some pineapple, oranges and apples.

 

[Second Summer]

D: (Last night): Nut burgers(*) on bagel, pommes frites. A piece of strawberry cake with liquid cream for dessert.
B: Oatmeal with banana and fortified but unsweetened soya milk. (No surprises there! )
L: Left-over "Chinese": tofu, noodles, spring rolls, stir-fried veg.
S: Cocoa Nakd bar.

* Nuts (except peanut) are not as good protein sources as legumes, so not entirely happy with that, but hey, someone else did the cooking for me as usual, so can't complain too much

 

[PTree15]

Granny Smith apple with peanut butter, iced coffee with soy milk and no sugar! I'm trying to cut down on the refined sugar intake
Steamed broccoli, grapes, orange
BBQ tempeh sandwich on a sub roll with pickles, sauteed onions and peppers, hot peppers, green olives, fresh spinach and little extra BBQ sauce. I am really liking tempeh of late.

 

[Scorpius]

S: Cocoa Nakd bar.

So I'm thinking of ordering myself a case of these. I got a banana nut flavour one in a VB exchange box years ago and really liked it. They make Larabars in the US, which are a similar concept (raw fruits and nut bar), but the Nakd bars seem to come in better flavours. Any one you would recommend in particular? I'm a choclaholic and coconut-aholic.

The chocolate orange ones are amazing
