Finally, a day off of work…time to get the apartment set up!
After I got back from errands, I made a big lunch. A pseudo BLT (soy bacon, spinach, and hummus)…ok, so it was a BLH. I used Lightlife soy bacon and Sabra hummus (obvi) on my fave, Alvarado street bread.
Looks delish, huh!!!
I cleaned the apartment while snacking chowing down some dried fruit.
I was a bit of a slacker, and really wasn’t feeling the gym, but I dragged myself there (my goal is to not come in last in April’s half marathon). It ended up not being a total waste, and I got in some decent cardio and arm stuff.
I snacked on frozen green grapes while prepping (aka chopping).
It doesn’t get any better than the “big salad.” In this massive bowl was: stupid romaine lettuce (nutritional value = blah), soy-tein with spinach, and some de-thawed frozen veggies (I was in a rush), and brocc slaw.
Not too shabby, but I needed more carbs, so I had 2 slices of Alvarado street bread with Sabra hummus on the side.
I also had gotten myself a treat for dessert. A slice of vegan vanilla/coconut (tofu) “cheesecake.”
Get ready for a montage…
Half way through…I added some berries, too.
Oops! Where did this one come from? I guess I had more figs, too…although I don’t remember this, so I don’t think it counts.
How often are you surprised by things you forgot you ate when you are loading your pics onto your computer?
Hahaha quite often I forget that I ate certain things!
But oh wow, that sandwich is making me drool!!
wow that cake looks scrumptuous! Thanks for the montage to distract me from studying 🙂
have you had sunflower kicthen hummus!??? i highly reccomend <3
ohh I love fake blts!!! but blh sounds good too, i’ll have to try that!
What kind of figs are those exactly, by the way?! I always want your dried fruit, but when I see all the fig selections at the store I get nervous because I don’t want to get the wrong one…I want whatever I see on here!! haha!
Oh romaine – why must it be so crunchy but nutritionally equal to water! BLH I LIKE!! Well, anything with hummus has to be good!
Gorgeous cheesecake, honestly. I’m in love.
I’m not surprised that often but sometimes I’ll be like – I had THAT as a snack?! Again?!
jess – i totally know what you mean, when i first went to buy dried figs i looked at all the brands and types and got so overwhelmed…i generally get calimyrna figs, and i get them out of the bins, so i dont have one brand im too attached to. let me know what you get and what you think…
devan – sunflower kitchen? never seen it, but ill keep my eyes out. sincei consider myself quite the hummus connoisseur!
I have not tried the Lightlife soy bacon…is it any good? I have had their deli slices and enjoyed them, but not the bacon…
I love big salads–I am eating one as I read your blog! At least romaine is better than iceberg, and you had lots of other veggies in there to make up for it :o)
Good luck with getting settled in the new place!
