    I feel like maybe I should not be posting on this thread any more as I get the impression that I do not quite eat enough. On the other hand it is an incentive to do better. If anybody feels offended though please tell me and I will not post any more.

    amaranth muesli, banana, raisins, soya milk, grapefruit
    2 apples
    mixed salad, curried lentil soup, rye bread
    2 oranges, 1 piece of halva
    millet, roasted veg (squash, carrots, swede), yeast flakes
    soya yogurt, blueberries
    few pieces of liquorice

    Breakfast
    Coffee
    OJ
    homemade muffin (whole wheat floor, strawberry, banana, apple)
    banana

    Lunch
    Vegetarian 3 beans chili and cornbread casserole (yum!)
    Celery sticks
    Apple

    Supper
    Tonight is supper with girlfriends so I will probably have:
    Large salad
    Pasta and vegetable sauce
    Glass of white wine
    Whole wheat bread (if available)
    and fruit salad for dessert

    Snacks
    10 almonds
    Orange
    handful of raisins

    Lots of water

    Keeping this kind of journal made me realise that I like fruits more than veggies and should make an effort to eat more veggies. I think I consume them more in soups and sauces than raw or steamed.

    Yesterday i ate -

    Breakfast - Bran flakes with rasins and soy milk.

    Lunch - Mediteranian tomato and butter bean soup with a salad (cherry tomatos, radishes, cucumber and sweetcorn) and 2 slices of wholegrain bread.

    Snack - Orange and Mango juice

    Dinner - Homemade bean chilli (Haricot, kidney, black eyed and soya beans, chickpeas, sweet potato, green and red peppers, mushrooms, sweetcorn, onion and courgette) with one cup (uncooked) of rice.

    Snack - Banana, wild berry and soy milk smoothie (yum! )

    Looking at all your previous posts i'm not sure if i'm eating the right kind of things :/ i take a vegan vitamin suppliment everyday, but that's not enough to be healthy obviously! I'm really trying to eat as healthily as i can but i've got so much to learn (and a student budget to boot) so if anyone has any advice as to what i can add to my diet i'd really appreciate it

    Also on the zatar train. Lebanese shops here sell 'pizza' with it and no cheese - it's to die for. I also buy it but it never tastes as good. I've never tried making it fresh. What's in it? Oregano and sesame seeds?

    Seasme seeds and a type of spice in the same family as rosemary but it only grows in the Middle East, I think. The dark green zatar is much better than the brown zatar. Lebanese zatar is usually the brown one that tastes like shit. Try to find a Palestinian/Israeli-Arab store or Jordinian store, they might have a yummier one. ORRR go to the middle east.

    Za'atar spice mix outside of the Middle East can include thyme, sumac, marjoram, salt, and toasted sesame seeds that is then mixed with olive oil...even if it's not entirely authentic, you can attempt to make your own blend for dipping or serving over rice and it's pretty delicious! I like to add pepper and lemon to mine too Syrian Hyssop is the ingredient in traditional Za'atar that can be difficult to get outside of the Middle East.

    Here's my day today:

    1 sprouted grains English muffin with 1 tsp. Earth Balance, 1 T. crushed peanuts and 1 tsp. nutritional yeast

    12 oz. blueberry pomegranate juice

    2 cups broccoli, 1 cup white beans, 1 cup baked potatoes, 1 tsp. onion powder, 1/2 a Meyer's lemon, juiced and 2 tsp. Earth Balance

    1/2 cup arugula pesto served over 1 cup green beans and 1/2 cup brown rice penne

    1 large baked sweet potato (skin and all) with 2 T. coconut cream, 1 tsp. agave and 1/2 tsp. garam masala

    2 Artichoke-Potato timbales (artichoke hearts, sliced potatoes, peas, onions, garlic, spices and a cheese sauce)

    1 cup steamed broccoli with the afore-mentioned cheese sauce ( hey, broccoli's on sale for 59 cents a pound! I gotta get in all the organic goodness when I can!)

    3 tangerines and 1/3 cup cashews

    1 gallon of water

    Alright, i looked for a different thread but didn't find one, so if this is wrong "¡lo siento!"

    I am trying to figure out which juices are the most nutritious. 100% juices of course.. So far i have thought of cranberry or pomegranate, and orange juice. .. does anyone disagree with me? I have no idea for sure, these are just guesses.


    Also, has anyone tried that newer orange juice that has FIBER in it now?

    1 organic apple
    1 organic plum
    1 organic peach
    1 banana

    handful of almonds

    salad of: lettuce, four home grown tomatoes, celery, capsicum, asparagus, cucumber, some kind of sprout thing lol.

    salad of: lettuce, beetroot, carrot, alfalfa sprouts, chopped up lentil burger, flaxseed oil, vinegar, hommus...(there was more in it but I don't remember- all the veggies were organic and the salad was bloody massive !!!)

    grapefruit, orange and apple organic juice

    1 banana
    1 organic apple
    1 organic plum

    2 pieces of wheat free rye toast with a whole avocado

    ....will be having some steamed veggies with a cheese sauce from nutritional yeast shortly.

    ----

    conclusion: too much fat. the maximum for one day is 30 grams, which one avocado can provide. I'm eating nuts and lots of oils so I need to cut way down. Plus, I think the lentil burger (i had it at an organic cafe in the city) in my salad may be deep fried. I bought one home for my family to try and the oil went right through the bag like I have never seen before...ugh I hope not. I hate deep fried stuff (although i do miss falafels)....deep fried is not natural. Will have to enquire....if it is..this is hypocrisy since it's an organic cafe.

    Well, it still can be organic and deep fried, though. If they used organic oil and organic ingredients, it's still organic and deep fried.

    Stumpy - where did you get 30grams of fat from? Your day seemed quite healthy except that maybe you were missing some grain... and possibly calories, i didn't check...
    i hope this doesn't upset you, but is deep fried a fear food for you - it sounds as though it is?

    Moochbabe- nah it isn't, I've read a few articles about deep frying and I just resent the fact it changes the oil into a state that is potentially carcinogenic. I actually swapped over my vegan margarine for a cold pressed one for the same reason- hydrogenated oil. Does that sort of make sense? sorry, I wasn't trying to whinge when posting...it was just more of a side note. Oh btw, the 30 grams of fat thing..I have read in the past and saw it on a television show recently.

    "Polyunsaturated oils, which include vegetable oils like corn, soy, safflower and canola, are the worst oils to cook with because of the trans-fatty acids introduced during the hydrogenation process, which results in increased dangers of chronic diseases such as breast cancer and heart disease"

    P.S- for anyone interested, I had this juice made for me 'apple, grape and ginger'...and it was amazing..i recommend it!! The girl just dropped the whole vine of grapes into the juice without removing them from the stalk part....I didn't know you could do that.

    stmpy: I see what you mean, although if it was an organic place then the oil they used for deep-frying wouldn't have been hydrogenated. and thank you so much for clearing that up for me!
