So technically, according to the Lent rules, you have Sunday's off. But, I decided to keep my Vegan pact because I know me. And I've been wanting both seafood and chicken a bunch lately. I'm talking salivating and even dreaming about the next time I'll be able to sink my teeth into a piece of flesh. Sadness, I know, but hear me out.
First off, at church we had a reception of sandwiches, potato salad, cakes, cheeses, then fruits and vegetables. I was okay for a while, just wishing I had packed my own lunch. Then, Sunday dinner was fried chicken, green beans, potato salad. I ended up having fried mushrooms, green beans, and a vegan potato salad (with blue agave nectar and mustard dressing, bell peppers, and onions). Getting creative! It hit the spot because I'm trying to be so dedicated to this. In essence, this blog will actually be 46 days instead of 40 so keep the Sunday's in.
Today, I was running all over the place - freelacing - and I had to consider fast food vegan options (and I still haven't research the weight piece! Ahhhh!). I think I cheated, matter of fact, I'm sure I did, though I didn't try. Mr. Everything on M L King, Jr. Drive near the AUC has a veggie sub that uses Boca Burger and a bunch of fresh vegetables. In hind sight, the Boca Burger over rice or on a bed of spinach would have been better. It does give my favorite grilled sandwich a run for it's money. You can check out the e-commercial here to see how they make the salad. I was so busy that I forgot to take a picture, but I'll do it tomorrow for sure when I have more pizza (Amy's again).
BTW, what wasn't vegan, I'm sure, was the bread. It would have been closer to my diet to just get the salad, but I didn't eat a good breakfast and when I saw the sandwich it was not going to waste! I also had a Kashi brown rice bowl for dinner (after 10pm!) because of all the trekking over Atlanta.
I'm planning to cook kale tomorrow and cauliflower. I really want to make some mashed cauliflower and the cauliflower sauce. Hmmmmm. New recipes and pictures then!
Mr. Everything!
