Can we please have a 'What I ate today' thread, vegan style?

[LeftieLovegood]

I'll start!

B: bran sticks and oat milk, glass of OJ.
L: Hummus and tomato toastie.
D: Stir fry: pepper, courgette, onion, garlic, ginger, carrot and Quorn chicken-style pieces, noodles and lots of soy sauce. First time I've tried the chicken-style pieces; they were on offer. Nice and low cal/high protein, but nothing special in terms of taste.
Snacks: apple, banana, bombay mix.

B: porridge with sultanas, mixed seeds and soya milk
L: leftovers from the freezer kale, mushroom and leek subji with rice, with soya yogurt and beetroot. 2 small satsumas
D: bean and cider cassoulet (Jack Monroe, v nice) with broccoli, cabbage and giraffe bread
S: Brazil/cashew nuts, snack a jacks, cherry tomatoes, grapes

L: lettuce, lentil and hummus salad
S: chips and guacamole
D: fodmap friendly tempeh chilli with sautéed spinach and roast butternut (my BF is fodmap, bloody nightmare finding dishes we can both eat, this went down a storm!)
2 gin and tonics and a glass of wine

@IJumpedAboardAPirateShip vegan and fodmap together must be extremely challenging. I suspect I have fodmap traits but ignore them, partly because the title of this book sums up what I think it would be like

B: overnight oats with berries and mixed seeds
L: lentil and veg hotpot, Christmas cake
S: 2 satsumas, 3 dates, snack a jacks
Had friends over for dinner and had a few crisps/nuts, then fishless finger tacos, with guacamole, salsa etc. And some Mexican dresses salad. Then some apple crumble and alpro custard for pudding

B - cereal and oatly
L - salad with chickpeas
D - LM sausages with sweet potatoes fries & a cream mushroom sauce (fry onion and garlic, add 100ml veg stock then up to 1 carton of oatly cream) it was so lovely!
S - popcorn with Tesco free from chocolate buttons wouldn’t buy them often as expensive but did satisfy the chocolate craving

Dinner yesterday was pesto pasta with red onion, garlic mushrooms, fry chicken strips amd cherry toms with oatly creme fraiche mixed in too.
Today
Porridge with banana.
2 alpen jaffa bars.
Cheese sandwich
Packet of crisps.
Dinner will be chips, veggie fingers and sweetcorn, because I've done a 20 mile walk today as thats all I can be bothered with. Alot of snacks will be had later to I suspect.

@PartTimeDomesticGoddess yes it’s a nightmare!! It’s my best friend though rather than boy friend so don’t have to do it too often!

Was so hungry in the evening, had a big plate of raw veg, some hummus and some chickpea crisps which were pretty nice actually, like vegetable wotsits

I filled in your survey - feel free to tell us more about it

My 4 children are vegan. I've filled it in for you

@georginalou89 I'm not (and my DDs are a bit older than your age bracket) but I'm fairly new to it and they'll both try pretty much anything. DD14 woop batch cook for herself with beef mince, but DD17 can't be bothered and will therefore eat more plant based

• I mean, what sort of cretin eats a custard doughnut for breakfast?

Today's breakfast - porridge with oatly, grated apple, cinnamon and ginger. - yum.
Along with a cup of Pukka mint tea. #feelin'fancy

Although @PartTimeDomesticGoddess - your croissant sounds delicious!

@IJumpedAboardAPirateShip - are you feeling better?
