So what do you eat then?

I've been thinking that a thread about our day to day meals, would be helpful to people curious about our lifestyle.

We might even get idea ourselves by living vicariously through the tastebuds of others.

So what did you eat today?

I've had no substantial meal yet today, but for dinner yesterday (vegan meal):

A simple plate of white rice with a homemade white sauce containing butterbeans. Nyom nyom

Yesterday had some couscous with chickpea/pepper stew with roasted butternut squash on the side.

Normally go with Italian, Indian or Chinese for dinner, with the occasional veggie burger/chips option.

How can you fit in a second lunch when you've had 2 bowls of ceral another breakfast and a lunch?!!

So far today I've just had one breakfast of porrige made with soya milk and a little bit of golden syrup, lunch today is last nights dinner - brown rice, lentil dahl and mixed veg & tofu with garlic, ginger and soya sause. Yesterdays lunch was just potoates and a nut burger.

I've only had breakfast yet, I had special k and cold/left-over pasta.
Wait that's not inticing.....

toast and jam for brekkie, think i'll be having either beans and toast or pizza for dinner - not feeling very well so appetite isn't up to much.

che81

usually porridge for brekkie with agave syrup, but this morning it was strawberries and a fig roll.

lunch is usually salad with beans and olives. sometimes soup.

dinner tonight is chinese, but usually some shape of tofu with veggies and rice or tatties or stews.

My iron count was low, so I'm eating fortified cereal for breakfast. With some milled flax, pumpkin and sunflower seeds on top. For good fat. I find that it helps my concentration.

Pineapple with cottage chesse for lunch.

Microwave fritatta, with baby potato, chopped walnuts and brie.
Green salad, strong chedder shavings, with salted tomatos and basil tofu.

I'm going to have a toasted wholemeal pitta with humous before the gym.

And go mad on sour apple chupa chops after.

Just had mushrooms, beans and fried potatoes for breakfast. A rare meal out since somebody is visiting.

dynastygal

Had a bowl of popcorn (my neighbour does me fresh popcorn from kernels sometimes), a banana....

For dinner, it'll be tofu in blackbean sauce, veg chow mein and mushrooms in chilli and plum sauce from the chinese.

spaceylou

I veggie not vegan so there are some diary bits in here......

But last night I had pitta bread pizza (ie. pitta bread, smeared with pesto and then peppers, onion, spinach and cheese for the topping with some oven chips),

Lunch today was bowl of lentil and veg curry and for dinner I'm thinking maybe a stirfry with whatever veg is in the fridge, a can of chickpeas some spices from the cupboard and soya sauce served with rice or couscous depending on my mood!

And breakfasts are usually on the run bowl of ceral much like I used to eat back when I ate meat so nothing changed there!!

I'm making my first lasagne today, for a pasta lover friend.
Spinach, mushroom and artichoke.

Crumble Froo

not vegan, but today i probably had my healthiest set of meals in months.
for breakfast, was cornflakes, with a few raisins thrown in.
lunch was a cuppa tea, honeyed toast and an orange.
had some licourice as a snack later, cos my iron's a bit kaput at the mo.
dinner was where i impressed myself, with pasta, mushroom and tofu omelette, and some apple fritters (i think? threw some sliced apple on the frying pan when the omelette was done).

normally though, i just live off tea and toast with a bit of fruit for lunch.

Time for tomato and roated red pepper soup.

Oh I don't want to say what I ate today.. it mostly involved a fast food establishment in a theme park lol.. :cool:

Went into Wagamamas recently for a change and it was pretty good, usually steer clear of chinese takeaways etc. though.

Tar.Aldarion

Ooooh what one you at? Alton towers is great. The B&B we stayed in was unreal and they had great veggie food including fake meat.

Basil tofu you say? I happen to have some basil and some tofu, is there a way of combining them into something nummy for my supper?

The tofu I use is flavoured.
I put spice crusts on plain tofu sometimes, i stick it with sweet chilli sauce and peanut butter.
