[PartTimeDomesticGoddess]

Shiny new thread

Today has been
L: grapes, 2 plums, sticky rice traybake with butternut, cashews and broccoli
S: handful of pistachios
D: potato and violife feta bake with cherry tomatoes, beetroot and Bombay carrot salad

Breakfast: two tomato sandwiches on toasted white bread (hangover)
Lunch: leftover spaghetti aglio e olio from last night, mug parsnip and lentil soup
Dinner: Orzo with roasted tomatoes, chickpeas and aubergine

I absolutely love tomato sandwiches at the moment. They hit the spot perfectly.

L: spiced parsnip and spinach soup, mince pie and elmlea
D: jacket potato with naturli and nooch, tomatoes, cucumber, beetroot and green salad. For pudding we had a ginger fruited sponge pudding cooked with orange marmalade in the bottom of the cup. With custard. Too much ginger for me, too much fruit for DH 😂
S: satsumas, dates, chocolate creams

B: consoled myself about having to go to work with a Nero vegan raspberry croissant
L: bbq jackfruit wrap
D: leftover Christmas Bosh wellington with mash and pickles

I'm loving this thread! I wish my dad could see it - he's always worriedly asking me what vegans actually eat.

Yesterday:
Breakfast - sourdough toast and Naturli
Lunch - Gregg's vegan sausage roll
Dinner - Putanesca, garlic bread
Snacks - peanut flavour wotsit type things. Weren't that nice but couldn't stop eating them.

@PartTimeDomesticGoddess you’re my spirit animal

@IJumpedAboardAPirateShip 💜 that!

Yesterday:
Breakfast: tomato sandwich on toasted sourdough
Lunch: southern fried 'chicken' nuggets
Dinner: wild mushroom risotto
Snacks: metric fuckton of salt n' vinegar peanuts, ready salted crisps, pistachios
Drinks: Malbec, rum and coke

This morning:
Muffin with Moving Mountains 'sausage' patty and fake cheese

Happy new year 🥳 Yesterday was

B: porridge with blueberries, seeds and golden syrup
L: veg stew
D: NYE feast - party food (same selection as Christmas Day), hm Richmond sausage rolls, olives, stuffed vine leaves, artichoke hearts, hummus and cucumber, crisps, crusty bread and mushroom pate. Then for pudding I made a Bosh sticky toffee pudding and nigellas cherry and almond crumble. I had both over the course of the evening and they were both bloody delicious with alpro custard. I also had more bendicks and more cava/prosecco than was sensible 😂

Falafel and hummus wrap with salad leaves and tomato and a bit of vegan mayonnaise. Lovely.

Both those puddings sound delicious @PartTimeDomesticGoddess. I've made the Bosh sticky toffee a few times and it never lets me down, and I love a crumble - though I'm pretty unadventurous, either apple or apple and blackberry seems to be my mainstays. I love the idea of cherry and almond. Generally I've been slacking on the sweet front lately. I think I've lost my pudding mojo.

Oh my lord today is going to be sponsored by coffee and carbs

And I've just remembered that I had a peach yesterday. I'm cross with myself for buying them as I wouldn't normally at this time of year, but was suckered by the yellow sticker. They're not ripening at all well, and I had to throw one of the four away...

yesterday evening was burger night - veggie burger, with Leon burger sauce, pickle, tomato, fake cheese, home made chips, onion rings, corn on cob.

Today:
B/L Tomato on sourdough sandwich, again
D: creamy garlic mushroom and spinach orzo
many cups of tea.

B: sausage roll
L: red pesto pasta with rocket, kidney beans and olives
S: panettone
D: picky tea of olive bread, pickles, pickles onions, 4 different very fancy cheeses from le fauxmagerie, buffalo cauliflower and smoked tofu

@IJumpedAboardAPirateShip what cheeses did you get? I've yet to find my perfect vegan cheese, though Nutcrafter have come the closest, and are near me too. I left it too late this Christmas so everywhere was sold out of anything decent. So far I don't love Tyne Chease or Mouse's Favourite so far, and I bought three blocks of Trimma (Sumear Cheese) on the strength of some ecstatic social media reviews but either it spoiled in transit or it just wasn't for me. The quest continues.

Add another half portion of orzo and a chunk of Vego to yesterday's log. I had the late night munch, couldn't decide whether to break into the leftovers or eat chocolate, so did both. [eyeroll]

Today:
B: hummus and tomato sandwich on cheap toastie bread
L: spicy veg soup with roasted chickpeas
D: sausages and puy lentils, braised cabbage, mash

Also interested to know which cheeses you had @IJumpedAboardAPirateShip. Like @ZaraTheWonderDog I haven't found the one yet I don't think, although minerthreat (by I Am Nut OK) and another one (think it was called Baby Blue or similar) have come the closest so far.

When do you go back to California @IJumpedAboardAPirateShip?

Yesterday was
B: toasted/buttered panettone, peach
L: tomato and lentil soup with buttered sourdough toast
D: Tesco mushroom lattice thing, 2 Sainsbury's pups in blankets, peas, roast potatoes/parsnips/celeriac/carrots/sprouts with cranberry sauce and gravy
S: various chocolate, sticky toffee pudding and ice cream

Today I will be mostly eating through last nights tequila over indulgence...

No idea why my phone has put some of those things in bold 😂

I love these threads :)

No breakfast, just two coffees with oat milk

Lunch This isn’t bacon rolls and a cup of tea with oat milk

Dinner spicy bean burgers with home made chips and corn on the cob

Not my healthiest day I must admit but it’s the end of the hols as my healthy food shop doesn’t come until tomorrow
