And I'm glad I did. I had tried them before, and just couldn't stomach the texture. I compared them to dry-rotted rubber bands, and honestly nothing has changed about them. They still have a texture I'd compare to that, buuuut, I don't know, I'm more accepting these days. Maybe knowing they had 23 grams of... Continue Reading →
Curry tofu scramble and bagel avocado toast: a yummy, nutritious breakfast
When I was in the Let's Go Veganish Facebook group, we'd get the occasional person who couldn't help but comment that there was "too much brown food" or whatever ignorant insults they wanted to hurl. I want to point out, being a mod there, we would have happily approved their all veggie and fruit meals... Continue Reading →
I’m doing just fine, thanks! (TW: WL)
So I thought I'd check in about how losing weight on a vegan diet has been going. So far I've lost about 10 pounds, probably more, but I'm at the water retention stage so give me a week, and we'll see if a couple of additional pounds drop off. I started a little bit before... Continue Reading →
I didn’t end the day in disappointment!
So another thing I found at Bargain Hunt was this McCormick Tasty-branded Savory Spice Mix. It's got typical Italian flavors like basil, tomato and oregano. On the back it had a recipe for Chicken Bruschetta Pasta so I used it for inspiration. The recipe said to saute a small chopped onion and one pound of... Continue Reading →
A disappointing vegan taste test day – Lindt Oatmilk Bar
Today my Lindt Oatmilk Chocolate bar arrived from Target. Target has a minimum $35 for online orders policy so I decided it was worth it to load my cart up with all that in chocolate. Personally, I like to have a small piece of chocolate for dinner every night and I usually get a little... Continue Reading →
The worst plant-based/vegan protein powder thus far…
I give that award to Misfits! I hate doing it because I have enjoyed their protein bars and have found them to be a great balance of protein and taste. But their powder...why?!?! Who tried that and was like, "Yeah, this is great!" because no, it's not. It reminds me of the low-carb Slimfast shakes... Continue Reading →
Bargain Hunt Baja Tofu
I found some Baja Fish taco seasoning by McCormick at Bargain Hunt. It was probably about fifty cents but I can't remember. I thought it would be good on tofu though and the actual spice mix is vegan. People get confused and think stuff like "poultry seasoning" and so forth have the animal they talk... Continue Reading →
Speaking of chocolate truffles. . .
Since Raquelita was talking about Target AND chocolate truffles, I found these AMAZING Favorite Day chocolate truffles at Target! Love these things! The only thing is the label says it contains milk but I've read the ingredient list at least a dozen times and those suckers DO NOT contain milk. I don't know what happened... Continue Reading →
Aldi skinny everything bagels
I forgot another Aldi find we got the other day, and that's the L'Oven Fresh skinny bagels. I picked up the everything style. On the weekend, I like to make a savory breakfast to take a break from the weekday smoothies. So on Sunday morning, I fried super extra firm tofu slices seasoned with black... Continue Reading →
High protein tortillas from Aldi!
I got these high protein wraps/tortillas from Aldi on Sunday. They are also low-carb (7 net carbs), but I am more interested in the protein content, and there are 12 grams of protein. For dinner tonight, I think I'll make burritos with brown rice, vegetarian refried beans, and these. It helps me make a high... Continue Reading →
