Whatcha Eatin ? - 2018

[MadamSarcastra]

A small helping of the massive cream-cheesy veggie-rice bake I made.... Garlic, onion, broccoli, red bell pepper, corn, peas, carrots, green beans, yellow squash... oh, and rice. Made a savory yeast gravy to accompany with homemade veggie stock, nooch, etc...

 

[shyvas]

A leek, pea and tofu risotto made with long grain, brown organic rice served with a drizzle of evo and a huge sprinkle of nooch.

Fruit for dessert.

 

[shyvas]

An apple and some hazelnuts.

 

[MadamSarcastra]

Made a couple uber-nutritious, salt-free snacks to keep me fueled today.... Spicy roasted chickpeas (with cayenne, cumin, & curry), and some Black Jewel popcorn (popped in evoo, seasoned with onion powder, dill weed, & nooch).

Haven't tried the garbonzos yet, they're cooling so I can bag 'em up.... but this popcorn is freaking phenomenal!! OMFG

(Yeah, that's about as good a pic as my ancient phone can take, I'm afraid. LOL)

I just had some trail mix (peanuts, almonds, raisins). I'm super hungry today. I can't wait to eat dinner, lol.

This is wine from 2005, made by the lead singer from Tool, Maynard James Keenan. My parents bought it for me years ago, and I finally decided to crack it. Remarkably, it's still really tasty, given that I don't have a wine cellar. I reeeeally like it. It's a blend of Cabernet and Sangiovese, made with mostly California grapes, as his Arizona vineyard was still in its infancy. I still want to visit the tasting room. It's only an hour or so from my cousin's house in Phoenix. I think I will get there this year, as we are supposed to visit my cousin this fall.

If you don't make it this year, I'll GLADLY go to Maynard's vineyard with you.

Even if I do, I would go again. I always have free awesome lodging at my cousin's. He is the best! It would be awesome to go with a fellow Tool fan!

And Arizona is on my list of places to visit... it would be nicer with a place to stay and someone who knows the area. Maybe if a new album sparks a tour, we could travel for wine and a show!

It would be great! Sedona isn't far from the tasting room and is a very cool and beautiful spot.

Another portion of red cabbage salad with mustard dressing, raisin, sunflowers seeds and nooch. A slice of granary toast.

A banana and strawberry, soya protein smoothie.

An orange. This is the last of the honeybells from my grandfather. Such a great gift.

Are the burgers nice?

 

[shyvas]

Strong espresso with soya cream/milk.

 

[shyvas]

Some leftover leek and tofu pilaf. I'm in need of some carbs to get rid of my migraine before going to work.

 

[PTree15]

I hope it goes away soon, shyvas.

Thanks PT. I've just got home from work and it is worse. I'm off to bed.

They are okay, but nothing amazing, a bit dry.

 

[shyvas]

Boiled potatoes with a drizzle of evo and a huge sprinkle of sea salt.
