What Vegans Eat – Day 65

Breakfast: It was time for a regular favorite, buckwheat waffles. I eat them plain. Gary likes them with maple or agave syrup and peanut butter. And I made Jasmine tea.   Lunch: I had made millet and red beans 2 days before anticipating making veggie burgers and finally got to it. It was worth the…

What Vegans Eat – Day 64

Before breakfast I had some errands to run. On the way home I passed a 7-11 store. I have never gone in this store but the new sign caught my attention: VEGAN FOOD!   Breakfast: I love savory foods for breakfast and this was a good one: leftover corn cakes, millet and Greens with Thai…

What Vegans Eat – Day 62

What Vegans Eat – Day 59

Breakfast: I’ve been making muffins for a long time. They are probably the easiest thing to bake and they come together fast. I use to make them with cow’s milk, eggs and oil, adding in wheat germ and bran, thinking that was healthy. A lot has changed since the 1980’s! I learned to veganize muffins…

What Vegans Eat – Day 58

Breakfast: We were putting together our music book for the upcoming Swingin’ Gourmets’ performance at the Happy B’Earthday Revue. There’s a lot of craft involved, cutting music, rearranging specific bars on the paper, whiting out and rewriting words. This required some serious oatmeal. Nothing but oatmeal, stick-to-your-ribs kind of oatmeal, would do and lots of…

What Vegans Eat – Day 57

I wasn’t thinking or was thinking of too many things and forgot to take photos of all the food I ate, so this post is image-limited. Breakfast: We had come to the end of the Quinoa balls. I enjoyed them, cold with Mint Tea and my daily Green Juice. Some thoughts on quinoa: Quinoa is…
