I'm doing 2 weeks (hopefully longer) of no processed food. Does anyone else do this?

I prob only eat processed food (ie fake meats but not including say pasta) once a week anyway, how unprocessed are you thinking?

Oh I suppose apart from choc. tofu or oat desserts, or pasta which I make into vegan dishes, oh and bread and choclate! I don't eat processed food because I' lm lucky to have the time to make the majority of my food myself.

Oh I just thought of olive oil which I use instead of 'pretend butter' spreads for my bread, blimey that made me think of the pnut butter and yeast spread too! and the bread of course! Though I have made the yeast spread this time because my nooch had gone solid!

B. Finished my prune smoothie, Walnuts
L. Steamed cauliflour and Fennel with bread. Choc dessert
Sn, More cauli with tamari. Some little sponge bix (very moreish not vegan .)

@KobaniDaughters I'm thinking zero processed, just need to cut out the dark choc and I'm wondering if Kimchi counts as processed - it probably does. Does anyone make their own Kimchi?

good luck! DH makes his own pasta occasionally but otherwise we use dried, and we buy oatmilk rather than make it, I also buy kimchi

Mummy No I don't like white cabbage or vinegar! It doesn't suit me. A bit of dark choc isn't too processed, I have made it before! Though it is definitely addictive!

It's really hard hence only doing it 'full on' for 2 weeks, after that I will def have Kimchi and dark Choc - not together of course!

I'm just hoping it will give me a bit of a refresh, get me of the sugar and the processed breakfast bars I'm keen on!

B: green smoothie, trek peanut protein bar
L: Egyptian stew

Hi it was dh's b\day yesterday and we had a tea with friends who we haven't had for a meal together since bleedin' lockdown! It was lovely seeing them, but apart from freshly made cucumber sandwiches which I made with brebis butter, I know it doesn't qualify there was nothing vegan. The problem with some French cakes they always look much better than they taste (dh buys with his eyes) so as Prue Leith says they weren't worth the calories!

Yesterday ;
B. Sultana smoothie
L. Defrosted my pasta bake with salad
S. Spelt sandwiches with normal spreads and cucumber, drop of champagne! Cake.

Sounds a lovely way to celebrate your DH's birthday @ppeatfruit. I know what you mean about not being worth the calories 😂

L: Thai red curry (chickpeas and veg) with rice
D: big bowl of spicy tomato and lentil soup with (lots of) crusty bread and plant butter
