Meatless Tuesday: Week 10

10 weeks. 1 accidental egg. I think I’m doing pretty good! Breakfast: A tall decaf Americano with half-and-half, Sugar in the Raw, and Caramel Sauce…not syrup.  And YES, I like my coffee like my men: tall, decaf Americano, white and sweet topped with caramel sauce. 😉   I was too stressed out to eat anything else that morning.  However, lunch came at me fast. . Lunch: The Vegan Spicy Soyrizo & Black Bean Wrap from Mendocino Farms in my building.  The place gets PACKED very quickly so by 11:45 I was already ordering. . Dinner: Homemade French Onion soup from...

Meatless Tuesday: Week 9

I fell off the wagon. Just a little bit. Having been up very late on Monday night, I rolled out of bed on Tuesday and made myself an egg on toast. *sigh* Breakfast: A slice of buttered 7-grain toast topped with one sunny side up egg cooked in a pat of butter along with slices of vine ripen tomato. A mug of English breakfast tea . Lunch: A small Caesar salad with no croutons. Hey, I’m already off the wagon on the egg today, I might as well! A few spoonful of butternut squash bisque which was absolutely disgusting A...

Meatless Tuesday: Week 8

Holy CRAP! It’s all ready been a week?! My god. Am I a bad blogger! But I promise to have something much more entertaining than my weekly food journal in a day or two. For now, on to Meatless Tuesday. * Breakfast: Open faced “grilled cheese” sandwich: one slice of 7-grain bread, buttered, topped with slices of one whole vine-ripen tomato, sprinkled with Nature’s Seasons seasoning blend, and a few slices of snack-sized cheddar cheese, toasted in the toaster oven until the cheese is melted. A mug of full-leaf oolong tea. Mid-morning snack: 2 whole grain crackers (they’re like 2.5...

Meatless Tuesday: Week 7

Breakfast Half of a giant blueberry peach scone I got from the farmer’s market over the weekend. I ate the other half on Monday. A mug of lemongrass-pandan tea. . Lunch An avocado tomato sandwich: 2 slices of 7 grain bread lightly toasted, mayo (yeah..I didn’t think about the egg content…), seasoning salt, a few shakes of Tapatio, strawberry tomatoes, and half of an avocado. The other half of the avocado with seasoning salt. Split a giant Asian pear with coworkers. . Snack Beard Papa’s Cream Puff, courtesy of best boss/friend in the world. . Late Dinner Room service at...

Meatless Tuesday: Week 6

Breakfast Ritz crackers with cream cheese A mug of Ecchaenacea Defense tea with honey . Lunch A few bites of brown rice and garlic tofu with vegetables from Pick Up Stix before the fire alarm went off in the building.  I came back and just ate the tofu about half an hour later.  Mother fuckers on the 33rd floor really need to get fined for all their burnt popcorn, I swear to god. One of my home made dark chocolate covered–are you ready?–Not Quite Nigella’s recipe of salted maple honey bacon caramel.  A failed experiment, the caramel did not set...

Meatless Tuesday: Week 5

Breakfast & Through out the day Snacks Starbucks decaf soy caramel macchiatto.  I ordered a tall but they gave me a grande. Starbucks chocolate croissant I never got to finish.  We had birthday party today in the office so I was saving room for cake. . Lunch Brown jasmine rice with 2 sticks of barbecue “beef” skewers and 4 cherry tomatoes.  The skewers look like poop, seriously like a log of poop.  It did have very meaty texture, though, and less soy tasting.  Unlike the marinaded “chicken” I had a while back. A mini red velvet cupcake…more like a shot...
