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: ground nuts and seeds with fruit and soya milk... I tried adding protein powder (which goes nicely in a smoothie) and found it is rank stirred into a bowl of fruit and seeds.
L: No bull burger, salad and avo
D: falafels, hummus, salad, beetroot, sun dried tomatoes
S: Off the Eaten Path crisps; I'm quite fond of these although they seem very salty. Plus dark chocolate, plate of raw veg, satsuma.

I know this is not a weight loss thread but I've lost 1 stone 5 lb by eating lowish carb and vegan for 4 months. I'm very pleased and feel a lot healthier and more energy as well as improved self esteem.

jess3817 what's the scoop with the scrambled tofu? I keep seeing it in recipe books but I can't find black salt anywhere; is it worth the effort?

In bed. Have chocolate oatly, have ordered "chicken" burger and vegan dirty fries.

That burger and dirty fries sound so good!

I just crumbled firm tofu in a frying pan with some melted butter and fry it with a little tumeric, black pepper, little maple syrup, nooch and black salt for the eggs flavour. Stiring frequently, only a medium heat so it doesn't stick.
