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?
