Vegan MoFo Post #2: Just another day at the office
>> Tuesday, October 4, 2011 – miso, quick, snacks, veganmofo, work snacks
For my second VeganMoFo post, you get the special honor of finding out what I eat on a regular workday. Usually, I work from home, so I might be noshing on PB&J or I might make something elaborate for lunch. This week, I'm working on a contract at a client site, so all my daytime eats are the portable kind.
Breakfast was a raw chia-oat pudding, with dried cranberries, sliced almonds and raw cacao nibs. And yes, you guessed it, I failed to take a photo. You would have had a difficult time seeing it anyway, since I scarfed it down around 6:30am. (Ouch!)
Green grapes and raw whole almonds |
Miso Soup |
Chocolate Newman-O's and dark chocolate espresso beans |
Two chocolate Newman-O's and some dark chocolate covered espresso beans made for a nice afternoon pick-me-up! I anticipated something of a frustrating day so I packed my afternoon snack accordingly and with one main ingredient in mind: chocolate. The added caffeine punch from the espresso beans helped me get over that afternoon "hump" and finish my day without losing my composure. Priceless.
Brown Rice Macaroni with Noochy Cheeze Sauce, Peas and Black Beans |
After a busy evening of running errands and taking care of things at home, I suddenly found myself HUNGRY and pressed for time. I quickly whipped up some Brown Rice Macaroni and while that cooked, I made a Noochy Cheese Sauce and tossed it together with some sweet peas and black beans. Quick, easy, well-balanced and best of all - not too messy!
There you have Day #2 of my VeganMoFo adventure. What are you eating this month?
