Breakfast: We stayed over my parents’ house. There was plenty of cut fruit to start on for breakfast, strawberries, oranges, honey dew melon and pineapple. I searched the pantry, cupboards and refrigerator for Oatmeal ingredients. I made a pot with a very ripe Pear, Raisins, Walnuts and Blueberries. My dad was pleased. We had it with Green Tea.
Lunch: Back at home, I dug into the remaining Kale Salad I had made yesterday. Gary and I had our morning glass of Unsweetened Cherry Juice. I ate, while enjoying looking at the pot of yellow tulips my parents gave me for my birthday.
Daily Green Juice: Kale, Collards, Celery, Carrots, Ginger, Lemon
Dinner: We had a date to meet our friend Lawrence for dinner at Green Zenphony. He lives in Brooklyn but sometimes sings at holiday services at a church near us. Years ago I introduced him to marinated Bean Curd Skin with Mushrooms. We both went nuts over it. Now Green Zenphony has it as an appetizer. It was fantastic!
The Veggie Ribs appetizer is another new favorite. Bacon and rib lovers – this is for you! It has the sweet, salty chewiness you love with none of the cruelty, environmental devastation or negative health impacts. Why aren’t more people eating this way?
Lawrence chose a Clay Pot dish with Seitan. It was amusing because the server was trying to talk him into getting another seitan dish that just didn’t look as good. I am glad he stuck with his choice.
Last week I ordered the Triple Mushroom with Bean Curd and wanted it again. It is not anything fancy, just good.
Gary got his Roast Pork Noodle Soup.
And the Pea Pod Leaves completed the meal.
Last but not least, the stunning, sliced Orange for dessert.
