as I figured, I haven't done a good job keeping up this blog.

But I have done a good job with my diet. Not getting the wight loss I hoped for, but I have avoided meat except for one really good breakfast burrito... but hey, chorizo, sausage, ham and bacon in a good breakfast burrito your coworkers bring, that all counts as vegetarian with bacon right?

Tonight I made some delicious bacon fried rice and some stir fried tofu with bell peppers.

Last night was a church potluck, when I told my pastor I had to pass on the meat he accused me of practicing lent. lol.

almost half-way through :)

Two tough challenges in one day

So today was the day my coworkers bring in breakfast, usually there are plenty of pastries among the goodies. Except when we get subway or banh mis. Today was subway. (thank goodness, I cannot resist banh mis) so I went ahead and enjoyed a veggie sub.

I also managed to leave my lunch in the car today. twas to be the first day I was gonna try veggie turkey.

So I visited the farmers market and enjoyed a delicious tofu spring roll and a tamale with veggies in it. And had a short conversation about my plan with the spring roll guy.

No idea on what to have for dinner tonight. Maybe bulger with squash if the squash is still good and it doesn't take too long to make.

Day two

Pretty lax day. Had some eggs, bacon, and leftover black bean chili last night. Also made some no knead bread. Came out amazing as always.

Tonight is where bacon takes a twist. I have decided that pepperoni counts as bacon. I'm heading over to my friend chuck's for my weekly screenwriting group. And he always makes pizza, usually pepperoni, so I decided, instead of inconveniencing him I'm just letting pepperoni count as bacon.

Day 1!

Well, last night's keftah went well. a full on blogpost/recipe will be forthcoming. I tend to not actually read recipes to the end before I start cooking sometimes... not the best habit. So I didn't realize that the recipe kind of just made appetizers, so I supplemented dinner with some broccoli cheese soup i had from vons.

Today for breakfast i had some greek yogurt with some of my new hemp granola.

Lunch was that BLT I made. Precooked bacon is pretty good, but next time i'm going to microwave it, then let it cool before throwing it in the sandwich, get that crispiness in it. I'll also go red pepper instead of tomato.

I also had some popchips, some soda, and an apple. I know, fascinating stuff.

For dinner I have planned to take some left over black bean chili, and then make some sort of egg/tofu scramble and throw in some soy sauce that's just expired before I throw it out. assuming it passes the taste test. (can soy sauce really expire with that much salt in it?)

till then!
