A crazy week with four shows didn’t allow for much time at home to create meals… again. I am ready for some evenings at home where I can create some meals that will give some variety to what we eat. I haven’t bailed on the new plan… it’s just that I have been eating the same thing over and over. I like trying a little something new now and again.
For this week I had veggies every morning… sometimes stir fried and sometimes in a smoothie.
Lunch was veggies and hummus or salads.
One night I made some veggies and tofu. It was really a “clean-the fridge” meal. I had some broccoli, mushrooms and some frozen mixed veggies. I added tofu and made a sauce from soy sauce, fish sauce, pepper sauce and corn starch. I wasn’t worth writing down a recipe. However, it did the job. We ate and it was plant based.
The next day was Halloween. I made “brains and eyeballs”, other wise known as whole wheat spaghetti, tomato sauce and some veggie meatballs I found at the local store.
The next night I had Hannah’s Roasted Tomato and Bell Pepper Soup
Then I made Wendy’s Ravioli with Pumpkin and Sage
Then I made a batch of Wendy’s Cabbage Soup
It’s been a long week. My show finally closed. It is getting colder. I’m in the mood for soup. So… I made Japanese Ramen Soup, with one alteration… I had beets so I added them. They turned the whole soup pink. LOL. I was still super tasty!
my food wasn’t fun or adventurous this past week. At least it was plant based. I am a few pounds from losing my first 100 pounds… so close! My goal was to lose 100 pounds by the time my son got home from serving a mission for our church for 2 years. He gets home December 6. I have a few more weeks… and Thanksgiving to get it done!
Wish me luck…
