Well its Day 5 of the Diabetes Blog Week and todays topic is…
Taking a cue from Adam Brown’s recent post, write a post documenting what you eat in a day! Feel free to add links to recommended recipes/shops/whatever. Make it an ideal day or a come-as-you-are day – no judgments either way. (Thank you, Katy of Bigfoot Child Have Diabetes for this topic.) – Bitter-Sweet Diabetes
What I eat daily varies from day to day, but a typical work day is…
Breakfast = Vega One Protein Mix, added to 2 cups Soy Milk, 1 tbsp coco powder and 1 cup of frozen fruit
or
Rice and Shine with soy milk
Lunch = Lettuce Leaves, Eggless Salad (curried tofu n veganiase), carrots and hummus.
or
left over Lentil Stew
or
Gluten Free Bagel with what ever veggies are there to put on it
Dinner is a meal that varies big time around here for us, from the Lentil Stew to Sweet and Sour Tofu and a lot of various things in-between.
* Ethiopian Style Lentils (Vegan, Gluten Free, Soy Free)
* Scalloped Potatoes – Vegan and Gluten Free
* Sweet n Sour Tofu with Veggies
* Vegan Cabbage Roll Casserole
* Butternut Squash with Lentils
Weekends and says that I’m not working Lunch and Breakfast can be one and the same meal depending on what time I get up at with Dinner being similar to what was listed for during a possible work week. Though one thing on weekends that I like to do up are Gluten Free n Vegan Waffles or Pancakes as time does allow for them to be dun up other wise what ever cereal is around or my standard vega one mix will be dun up.
