Vegetarians: What have you eaten today?

Yesterday

B: coffee and brazil nuts
L: lentil and veg soup
D: stir fry - cabbage, mange tout, mushrooms, spicy tofu, cashews, sesame seeds
Snack: peanuts



My dietary goalposts moved again this week with the loss of my ovaries. I will have to eat extra-healthy now - no fillers! Very happy with my pre-op hba1c from the previous week which was still 35.
 
Brunch: toasted Lidl roll with almond butter
Dinner: spicy marrow and butterbean soup
Pudding: stewed fruit, toasted mixed nuts, lemon flavoured soya yogurt (like fruit crumble!)

Cheapo dinner tonight - marrow, rhubarb, plums, redcurrants and raspberries from the garden.
 
B: almond milk with Bioglan Supergreens powder through it (tasty)
L: spicy marrow and butterbean soup
B: Lidl roll "pizza"
 
Brunch: fry-up - Linda Mac sausages, tofu pepperoni, mushrooms, cherry tomatoes
Dinner: courgetti, pesto, sun dried tomatoes, mushrooms, toasted hazelnuts
Snack: peanuts
 
B: Granola, Greek yoghurt & blueberries. Actimel.

L: Haloumi wrap at Wetherspoons - surprisingly high in carbs at 63g -presumably from the sweet chilli sauce. Salad, rather than chips, and a Diet Pepsi, so not too bad. (I obviously don't LCHF, just wanted to warn others.)

D: Pasta with roast veg and pine nuts.

Snacks: Cappuccino and croissant. Almonds.
 
Brunch: avocado melt (hot avo, walnuts, violife, chilli flakes)
Snack while out visiting: strawberries and blueberries
Dinner: Quorn fillets, cauli mash, asparagus, gravy
 
Brunch: a plum with almond butter on it
Sunday roast: aubergine muhammara traybake and Lidl roll garlic bread (will pop recipe on vegan thread)

Nice one! Heads up to Mrs Ledzeptt - they are making gingerbread houses this week on GBBO I made ginger cookies at the weekend, but they were a bit rubbish.
 
Brunch: scrambled eggs, fried mushrooms, Tesco soya sausages and 1 slice wholemeal bread
 
For the Bank Holiday, I treated Mrs LedZepTT (a name she'll hate as she's more a Mrs Jedward regrettably) to afternoon tea at Greens - Simon Rimmer's vegetarian restaurant.

Very tasty, but difficult to carb count/bolus!

 
B: blueberries, soya yogurt, pecans, ginger
L: 2 Linda Mac sausages, 2 leftover stuffed mushrooms
D: courgetti pesto, tofu wiener, sd tomatoes, olives, cashews
Snack: brazil nuts and chocolate
 
B: Muesli and an actimel.

L: Portobello "cheeseburger".

D: I shall be cooking squash stuffed with quinoa.

I've bought some large cookies to watch the biscuit challenge on GBBO (never had much luck baking any myself).

 
B: soya yogurt, blueberries, pecans, ginger
L: peanut 9 bar
D: veg pakora

Sadly no biscuits, but have some dark chocolate for GBBO snack

Do you make your own veg pakora? If so, what do you coat it with?

Afraid not. I had no energy for cooking tonight hence the pakoras from the freezer. They were from Iceland's Indian party platter. They are around 4 carbs each.
 
Yesterday:

B: Granola, Greek yogurt & blueberries. Actimel.

L: Hummus salad sandwich. Quorn savoury eggs.

D: PizzaExpress - dough balls, melanzone al forne & half an Eton mess cheesecake. (32nd anniversary and pleased that I managed to carb count/bolus precisely despite the cake!)
