What did I eat this weekend? January 17th and 18th

January 17th and 18th

Aloha.
I hope everyones weekend was just lovely! I have been very busy and therefore didn't post yesterday! I thought I would do the entire weekend in one go.

Saturday

So today I went on a meditation course in Huddersfield. I actually gave up a lie in to do this, which for me is pretty epic. I forgot to photo breakfast, but it was extremely unhealthy, herbal tea and biscuits! oops!

Lunch

I went into town after the meditation course (which was amazing) and decided that I would continue my day of relaxing by enjoying some Costa and book time. I love this. Put my headphones in, read a book and drink a bucket of soy chai latte. I cant recommend this drink enough! I also enjoyed an M &S samosa.

Tea

For my dinner (or tea as the northern folk call it)  I decided to make some vegan Hulloumi. I was super hungry from swimming and needed some comfort food.
I did this by pressing some firm tofu over night (planning is key) and making a paste out of nutritional yeast, paprika, salt, and turmeric. This was then left to marinate a bit and then fried. I served on a bagel with rocket, mushrooms, spinach and some sweet chilli. To accompany I made kale crisps. NOM NOM NOM NOM

Sunday

Breakfast was unfortunately missed today due to having several glasses of wine too many last night! My bad! I slept through, but then made a lovely lunch.


Lunch

Grilled cheese sandwich and kale crisps. I am obsessed wit kale crisps atm. They are so simple and soo tasty!

Tea

For tea I got some veggie burgers and a sweet potato. Shoved them in the oven for half an hour with a giant mushroom, asparagus, tiny leeks, broccoli and some spring onion. Sprayed with fry light. Food heaven. Served with greens! Lovely

Overall some top food this weekend!

Much Love

What did I eat today?.. January 3rd

Day 3 of this blog and I've had quite the interest. Nearly 1k page visits. Thank you to everyone who has been so supportive. The vegan community really is a magical one. Everyone is just Lovely!

Foood!:

Breakfast:

I slept in..like really slept in. Only one more lie in until I'm back at work..so I'm really making the most of it!!..So for a quick healthy breakfast I made a smoothie. I unlike others don't have a recipe for this. I just throw in loads of fruit, spinach, bit of soy milk and some juice, blend and boom..good to go. In this one I had mango, blueberries, spinach, raspberry, grapes, pineapple, apple, melon (basically I have a shelf in my freezer full of frozen fruit so I can just make a quick one)

Lunch

I've spent much of the day at my computer doing marking and planning for work, so I have a very dull lunch (actually a strong favorite) of Marmite sadwiches, asda pretend monster munch and some bourbons. Exciting!

Tea

So my final meal of the day was two portabello mushrooms on a bed of spinach with some sweet chili and some of last nights pasta  (waste nothing I say!!). Also had a brownie! Lovely!!

This did fill me up!!

Tomorrow is my last day of the holidays, This makes me sad, however, It does mean that I will be baking as my office loves some nice treats!! 

Hope you're all having a top weekend! 

Much love
