Shop My Pantry: Day Three

Shop my pantry: day three has been a success! Ready to see the amazing food?

Breakfast was the rest of the Sabra garlic hummus and the end of a container of quake Quaker rice cakes. Used up two things this meal: score! I've still got another container of hummus and more rice cakes, so I'll probably be eating this again in a day our two.

Lunch was made of leftover white beans and curry rice from last night. It was definitely an interesting blend of spices (Indian and Creole flavorings have a few similarities, but all really different beasts when it comes down to it.) I loved the combo, and would totally eat it again soon.

Dinner: 2 vegan spicy chick'n patty sandwiches on sourdough bread. I'm not the hugest fan of Boca burgers, but their chick'n is really quite delicious! Also, I'm really loving this nuco coconut mayo I found at whole foods. A little vinegary, but awesome. Great texture! The mustard is the 365 brand and super vinegary... It works well on burgers, but I'm probably not going to go out of my way to get it again. The ketchup is just regular old ketchup nothing special.

Dessert: dairy free chocolate halo top.

Go to the store.

Buy this.

Eat it.

You will thank me.

That's it for today!

Tomorrow will be interesting... My family is going out to eat and I'm not sure how I'm going to calculate my meal into my no spending budget. I'm not even sure what they will have at the restaurant that I can easy, since it is a seafood restaurant. It will definitely be an adventure! ... I'll let you know what happens!

Tempeh Protein Noodles

I have been making large batches of food and eating them throughout the week to cut down on my time spent cooking on a daily basis. This is something I made the other day and love! Ingredients 1 package Edamame mung bean noodles 1 package black bean noodles 1 package Tempeh 1/3 cup textured vegetable protein 1/4 cup powdered peanut butter 2 tbsp Sesame seeds 2 tbsp kimchi 1 tbsp Chili oil 3 tbsp soy sauce 3 tbsp Bragg's liquid aminos 1.5 tbsp Sriracha Directions • Cook noodles according to package directions and drain. • in the same pot, mix the noodles with the other ingredients (it works best if you add the powdered peanut butter and tvp first so they are easier to mix once you add the liquids. • Serve with extra sriracha for a spicier dish, or add a fruit salad for some sweetness to contrast with the spicy saltiness. Makes 8 servings at about 310 calories

The Two Towers Marathon

Day two of the marathon started early! I woke up two hours earlier than I normally do to get everything in the oven and on the stove. I put all the food for the entire day in the oven at the beginning... Don't do that! Wait until after the second movie is finished to put in the food for the third our it will dry out! I am a huge fan of Edoras/ Rohan/ Everything To Do With This Movie, so I was super excited to begin! The Two Towers started off with salt... Not the best way to begin the day, but we soon washed it down with lembas! This was my favorite of the lembas recipes, but it got tough in the fridge and dry when toasted again. Make this the day you wish to eat it! The Orcish "medicine" we used was Hot Chocolate from @spiceandtea that I won in a giveaway in December... It was much better than whatever Merry drank! The iconic "meat's back on the menu, boys!" scene was filled with yummy foods! @noe...

Fellowship Of The Ring Eat-athon

Fellowship Of The Ring Eat-athon, Part One! (We are pacing ourselves with small portions... It's the reason for the half apples or cupcakes!) We begin with a hobbit chomping into a cake! We started by eating half of a vanilla cranberry cupcake! And there's a number of times tea is made in the Hobbiton, so go ahead and make a whole pot (we drank this lovely Earl Grey blend from @adagioteas fandom blends) Bilbo Baggins turns 111! So we eat the other half of the cupcake! Merry eats an apple to look nonchalant while stealing fireworks with Pippin. After seeing some elves in the forest, Sam can't sleep on the hard ground and eats some bread in the middle of the night... My kind of hobbit! Then, as we make it to Bree, we see Peter Jackson take a huge bite out of a carrot... We had baby carrots😂 Pippin's infamous Second Breakfast scene gives us another opportunity to eat an apple! ...
