welcome to the forum, kat7!
I think your day looks fairly healthy... what's it like being vegan in meat-orientated Spain?

Thanks pavotrouge! Since you asked... :) it's definitely a challenge!!
On the positive side the fruits and veggie markets are excellent, giving me a chance to taste many new things I've never bothered to try before...and resulting in lot of experimenting in the kitchen. :o On the other hand...there are very few veggie options, let alone vegan choices, on the menus. Even most of the veg or bean-based plates have some sort of pork or egg or dairy mixed in. Also stores don't seem to carry all the soy-based stuff like ice creams, desserts, etc. that I have read about on this board (Tofutti, etc)...hard for me because I have a huge sweet tooth!! The other hard part is the lack of support. My friends here just don't get why the heck I would want to be vegan. People ask me why can't I eat cheese, fish, etc. I am from the US so I think they just chalk it up to another crazy american with strange habits. :D How do you find it in Germany?

For breakfast I had the most amazing coloured smoothie type thing.
Soya milk, banana, frozen mixed summer fruits and a scoop of protien powder. It was a fantastic mauve colour and tasted quite good too :D
Lunch was fake bacon in a wholewheat roll and a massive mug of Earl Grey.
Dinner will be leftover lentil curry and wild rice and maybe a couple of gin and tonics :D

Breakfast was a 'blended salad' of mixed berries, cos lettuce, lentil sprouts, ground flax seed and vanilla flavoured rice milk.
Lunch was eaten on the run so went to the Hare Krishna stand at the local market and got a bean, peppers, tomato and herbs pasty.
Dinner was grilled tempeh with zucchini and broad beans.

biekie - could mean ' a bit' or 'some' - in Afrikaans this is spelt bietjie.

LOL, correct

it's bicky spelt wrong, it's a burger or veggieburger with the 3 kinds of bicky sauce in it, very nice!
