Hmm, I just put some cucumber in my morning green smoothie. I won't be making that mistake again!
I'm also going to have oven wedges with kidney beans, cherry toms and sriracha mayo.

Why don’t I show you what I’m about to have for lunch?
Leftovers from my dinner at Follow Your Heart yesterday: “Chicken” pot pie using Gardein, sautéed kale and beets, a challah roll that someone from the local Chabad made yesterday and brought in for whoever wants one, some of the grapes I bought at Follow Your Heart yesterday, and my last bottle of Tejava tea bought from Trader Joe’s several weeks ago. And now I’m starving so I’m going to dig in before my lunch gets cold.

Are these beets cooked? I think they are cooked... but they look tasty anyway.
Tomorrow i'll be eating raw beets from our greenhouse (at the country). It will be the first time this year when i'm trying our own beets. Unfortunately, i don't have a second spiralizer in the summer cottage, so i asked mom to cut the beets into tiny pieces by the time i come from the city late in the evening. I didn't regret i bought this spiralizer (i'll use it Sunday evening). Because shredded beets that i buy in grocery stores have nothing to do with whole sweet gorgeous beets that are sold in dry mud, with dry scary roots. If i overcome my laziness, choose the beets that are not shriveled and not rotten, make efforts and wash, peel and cut these beets,- i'll get a pure delight, not a veggie. Approximately the same is with cabbage, carrots and lettuce. (I don't like lettuce and carrots, so i care about cabbage and beets more).

I suddenly realized that someone might be holding a grudge on me... @Amy SF , are you mad? (I was writing about overcoming my laziness in peeling raw beets, but i used a rhetorical form of the sentence, like all russians do, because it's quite a normal thing for us to say "you", if we mean "i". So (just in case), i didn't mean your laziness,- i meant mine)). This is weird, but i thought that you might have misunderstood my post (and that would be bad).

Lentil soup with potatoes and carrots. I wanted to try some umami stock cubes that are sold here and I was glad I did. They contain miso amongst other things and they taste great!
A delicious, crispy, tart Macoun apple. I can't believe apple season is upon us in my area. Must go get more.

Not long ago (on Aug.19th) we had Yablochnyi spas (Apple feast of the Savior), when (in old times) all apples were harvested.A delicious, crispy, tart Macoun apple. I can't believe apple season is upon us in my area. Must go get more.
But we still have a lot of apples on our garden trees, and mom is grumbling that i buy Gala and Granny Smith apples. I'm glad she's eating our own apples though. She needs them more than i do.Yablochnyi spas:
