spaghetti with chunky veg and Meridien sun dired tomato sauce (it wasn't very god - I won't be getting it again)
i like that sauce, but i always add lots of rocket to it last minute, and top with pine nuts. it's a bit bland otherwise.
i can't believe i'm reading so many people saying "coffee with soy milk" - how on earth do you manage it?!
today i have had a small bowl of cornflakes with soy milk, plus indian take-out (veggie rogan josh with some chips). i've eaten more today than i think i have in the past week combined :eek::)

Well, let me tell ya... Every time I go to Whole Foods I try to buy something new. Today I bought a new (to me) grain, called Teff. Anyone heard of it? It's the smallest grain in the world. I followed the instructions on the package: simmer half a cup of teff in 2 cups of water for 15-20 minutes. Oh, it's yummy! It's got this nutty, bitterish taste that kind of reminds me of the aroma of freshly ground flax seeds. The package suggested adding raisins, dates and/or honey. I didn't any of those, so I decided to chop up some Granny Smith apple and mix it in. Yum! And then I decided to make some cranberry sauce and add it to the mixture. Yum Yum!
Oh, how I love being a vegan. Not only is it good for you, it's fun!
I can't wait to make it again.

Do you guys like orzo? I'm crazy about it! Last night I made it for my mom and she loved it.
Here is what I do. I dissolve cube of vegan bouillion in 1.75 cups of boiling water. Then I add a mixture of orzo and red lentils (washed and rinsed, of course). I reduce the heat to medium low. It's all ready in just about 7 minutes. During the 7 minutes, I chop up some leaks or green onions, kale, mushrooms, cashews (or pine nuts) and sautee them all with some vegan butter. I add a couple of Boca vegan burgers, broken into small pieces, to the mixture.
And there you have it. It's yummy! Plus, it's high in protein, fiber, complex carbs, calcium (from the kale), and monounsaturated fats. The vegan bouillion is a little high in salt, but hey, I don't care. I could use the low-salt bouillion, but I know myself, I'd end up adding salt anyway...

Whaddaya mean?
i can't add soy milk to coffee without it curdling. i buy dairy-free coffee whitener instead but it is too expensive to nurture a coffee addiction this way!

I've never heard of it. I'm thinking of going over to Wholefoods (on the other side of the city) next week, so I'll have a look for it there.
Tonight we went out for dinner and I had a Portobello Mushroom Burger. It was very plain and bland - I could've made better myself at home. The sweet potato fries that came with it were REALLY good though!! I also had a Mojito to drink :)
Then because they didn't have any vegan desserts, we went to different restaurant for dessert. I had a soy Mocha late and a piece of vegan chocolate raspberry cake. Yum!

Well, let me tell ya... Every time I go to Whole Foods I try to buy something new. Today I bought a new (to me) grain, called Teff. Anyone heard of it?
Here is the nutritional information for uncooked Teff:
http://www.nutritiondata.com/facts-C00001-01c22h3.html
It seems that it is a very good source of fiber, calcium and especially iron!
I made it again this morning. I sweetened it with Stevia and added apple and cranberry sauce. Delish! And the good thing is, it does not leave me feeling hungry, like oatmeal. It ain't cheap - the package I bought at Whole Foods was over $5. But hey, variety is the spice of life, n'est-ce pas?
