Vegetarians: What have you eaten today?

Great story @Enclave - good to hear of someone's very hard work paying off You can go out for a meal & order from the menu without all the maths!

I wished ... The wife is a very strict veggie and will not eat out .. If we need to eat out then it's a bowl of plain salad leaves from the local supermarket, and a small jar of mayonnaise... Looking forward to that ..
 
B: cheese on Livlife toast
L: nothing
D: two big mushrooms stuffed with feta, walnuts and thyme. Chocolate chip almond muffin

Ah - bummer! In that case I'd stay home with cheese on toast & an apple turnover

B: coffee/cream
L: coffee/cream
S: (breaking fast) macadamias & swiss cheese
D: road testing a veg version of this http://lindawagner.net/blog/2014/06/paleo-chinese-chicken-salad/index.html . Used red cabbage, left out the fresh coriander ( :***: ) & will serve on shredded greens. Dressing smells nice so I have high hopes.
 
B: 1 Banana & Latte.
L: Ate out: Plate of chips with mayonnaise, salt & vinegar. (Yum).
D: will have 3 Cheese Muffins (shop bought) with sliced Red Leicester and sliced Mushrooms grilled.
 
B: full fat yogurt and flax
L: cucumber, olives and small amount of cheese
D: mushroom stir fry (need some fresh ginger and garlic so not as yummy as it should have been)
