Sweet potatoes are vegetables

Animosity, sorry you are having an emotional wreck of a day....I can sympathize. And I usually turn to french fries too. They are the wonder of comfort food, IMO.

[Roxy]

They ARE???

This thread is very long now, and will therefore be closed soon...

Would it be a good idea to have three different threads like this - one for breakfast, one for lunch and one for dinner? What do you think?

[Roxy]

Today:

2 cups of coffee with Silk creamer.
1 hot cross bun with Soy Garden spread and organic cherry jam.

1 glass cranberry lemonade.
1 cup chili with a dolop of Tofutti sour cream.
A few organic sesame tamari tortilla chips for dipping.

1 cup Spring Cleanse tea.

Moong Bean (or Mung Bean) dahl.
Basmati Rice.
Salad: red leaf lettuce, head lettuce, organic grape tomatoes, purple tomato, purple pepper, cucumber, green grapes, cashews, coconut-lime-ginger dressing.
3 glasses of Raspberry Wheat beer.

1 waffle bowl with choc mint soy icecream & chocolate sauce.

[applepie]

To be honest, I don't like the idea. I really like to see what people eat during the day as a whole, and posting on three differenth threads would break it up too much.

[indianvegan]

I second, applepie's view.

I feel, there shoud be separate thread like What desert you ate today?

I find very few Vegan deserts' idea on this forum.

[Roxy]

I agree with the above

[bryzee86]

i ate:

blackberries
houmous and salad sandwich

then i vomited a couple of times.

i feel a bit better now, so to cheer myself up i'm eating vanilla Glace with mint choc sauce.

I'll regret that later.

[PaintedXSkyline]

aw. feel better bryzee!

Today:
Clif chocolate brownie bar
Cup of grapefruit Juice
A few peanuts

Later i'll have some onion rings, ice cream, and for dinner i'm thinking some brown rice.

[bryzee86]

any vegetables?!

P.S. Onion rings do not sount towards your 5-a-day

[PaintedXSkyline]

oo. you're right.
how about a salad for dinner instead?

[bryzee86]

or: additionally.

[PaintedXSkyline]

that works too

[veganwitch]

^ that coconut lime ginger dressing sounds yummy, Roxy. Did you make it?

Yesterday:

chai tea w/ chai silk milk
orange juice
4 blueberry pancakes w/ syrup
2 slices smart bacon
earl grey tea

eyebright tea x 2
pasta salad
corn on cob

blt (oat nut bread, smart bacon, vegenaise, romaine, tomato)

chamomile tea x 2
more fries w/ vinegar & ketchup

english breakfast tea
bowl of mocha almond fudge ice cream w/ chocolate sauce & soyatoo whipped cream

[veganwitch]

I'm confused . Not that that is anything new. But are there 2 "what did you eat today threads"?


I also agree with the above. I don't like the idea of different threads for different meals. Most days I eat brunch...so I would suffer endless indecision of where to put that .

[BlackCats]

(So, I'm taking it this thread can be used still?)

B: Porridge with raisins, cinnamon and soya milk
L: Veggie mince and bean chilli with tortilla chips and mayo
D: I'm waiting for my sweetcorn and pineapple pizza to arrive.....

Dried apricots

Water and only one cup of tea as I'm trying to cut back - Yogi licorice

(ETA - that mocha ice cream sounds wonderful veganwitch!)
