What did you eat today?

[Owlie]

Just be sure to add it at the end. It has a low smoke point, so it's not the best oil to actually cook with.

Yeah, I know. I love sesame oil. I add extra to hot and sour soup for the smell alone...

Let's see:
B: Tea, a few pieces of smoked salmon
L: I skipped it--we need to go shopping!
S1: Whole-milk chai latte, huge cinnamon bun/doughnut hybrid at the local coffee shop. I've been having glazed doughnuts and cinnamon roll cravings for a week (where's that thread?). I ate the whole thing.
S2: A few chili powder-coated dried mangoes
D: Salad with a chicken breast, a sprinkling of cheese, and oil and vinegar dressing. Slice of toast.
S3: I'm probably going to have an apple. Maybe something desserty.

I'm justifying my caloric intake by saying it's around 10 degrees outside and the apartment is FREEZING.

B - Cream of wheat made with soy milk and sprinkled with brown sugar.

L - A vegan hot dog from Cyberdogs Cafe with housemade "cheese" and "bacon."

S - Vanilla Soy yogurt.

D - Stir fry made with Jasmine rice, cooked with Canola oil and tossed with sweet and sour sauce after, with tofu, orange pepper, garlic, mushrooms, pineapple, broccoli, and shallots and a piece of potato bread.

There appears to be a trend...

(Replace the tofu with chicken, the orange pepper with a red one, and get rid of the mushrooms and that's probably dinner at some point this weekend...)

Now I want pineapple...

My diet was awful yesterday so won't post it - I really need to do some 'advance cooking'. Calorie-wise it was fine, but the content was not. I also had less protein than usual and am starving...I KNOW better

I really am enjoying this thread as it is giving me good ideas - thanks!

today's was fairly typical steel cut oatmeal, banana, apple, 1 slice homemade whole wheat bread with dill relish and turkey cold cuts and a serving of rice and almond crackers with hummus as a snack. Dinner however was exceptionally tasty- moroccan style chicken, spiced with tumeric, cinnamon,ginger and garlic with raisins, olives, onion, garlic and homemade moroccan preserved lemons as a garnish on couscous. My adaptation of a moroccan tagine with a crock pot.
