What did you have for lunch?

High fiber whole wheat with lowered sodium vegemite and broccoli sprouts. A little later I had boiled potatoes and carrot with bbq sauce and mustard. Not a huge lunch, but the amount of food I had at breakfast esp including beans was more than enough to fill the gap.
 
For the last two days I've made a philly cheesesteak (one of my favorite sandwiches). Made with baby portabellas, peppers, onion, chao cheese and tofurky roast beef on french bread with veganaise.
 
today my honey is working from home so I went out and picked up....

985

Ikea veggie dogs....

The toppings are red cabbage, fried onions and mustard and they were delicious and 75 cents each.

Yup, my bad, we had 4 each.

The ice cream I snacked on after dinner last night - water, pinto beans, dates, flax (added after I posted), raw sugar, cacao and salt.

The taste was excellent, but doing a little more research I think I need to add a little more fat and churn it for a creamy texture.
 
Lunch was very similar to breakfast - same homemade flat wraps/chips with nearly the same
ingredients - and I didn't have it until 2pm (breakfast around 9am or so). The two
meals were enough to cover for dinner too. Lime juice with salt on my wheat chips. Jalapenos instead
of pickles. Not a single potato in sight today, in hash brown form or anything else.

I measured the time it took to make my whole grain /flax flat wraps. Not including kneading time (8min
done by a bread maker) - 20 minutes for over a kg of wraps, including clean up time. Cost to me: bout $1.50.

Between the brown rice I have pre-soaked/frozen and other food stuffs, the wraps should last me
at least 2 more days if not 3 or more.

I love being vegan!

I skip lunch on Friday. My routine would be a bit unusual for others, it has been this way the last couple of years or so, not always though. I nibbled on a bit of dark chocolate at midday though, while I am not really supposed to eat where I am right then. Before I left home in the morning I had whole wheat noodles with baby greens like spinach and kale, and hummus, with seasonings cayenne pepper, nutritional yeast, turmeric, thyme, and Bragg Organic Sprinkle Seasoning. I am preparing a hummus sandwich just now later in the afternoon here after I came home.

Veggie stir fry with onion, mushrooms, green bell pepper, and beets, over a baked potato with homemade peanut sauce.

I also pickled the rest of the beets but they won't be ready until next month lol.

For my birthday lunch I had Field Roast sausage on a potato bun with stone ground mustard, Vegenaise, and sourkraut. On the side I had sea salt and lime tortilla chips dipped in guacamole. Then a vegan chocolate cupcake for dessert. Yum!

I’ve been eating the same lunch for weeks: tofu scramble with sautéed summer squash, zucchini and mushrooms over quinoa.
