My vegan ways


Day two on the vegan diet. I cannot believe that I am eating vegan. I hate vegans. They are too earthy. I am humbled. I have to keep realising I cannot judge others...'cause here I am eating almost vegan and loving it.
As you can see this is my lunch today. Yummy. Who would not want to eat that. Below all the yummy stuff are noodles. Since I do not have udon noodles in the house I used the whole wheat ones that I have been buying for my family. (I have just learned they prefer white pasta-yuck.)
For this yummy recipe, I boiled the noodles and it a separate pan I sauteed garlic, red onions, a pinch of salt (which I do not know why I added it, I rarely use salt, it was sea salt though.)and pepper. I also added broccoli, muchrooms and firm tofu. I have eaten tofu before, I did after all spend a month in Japan, kinda hard to avoid it there! and never really liked it but I got the firm kind, I remember not liking the extra firm but the firm is yummy. It tastes like the other foods around it but the texture was good not too hard, not too soft, just right goldilocks!
For breakfast I had my usual oatmeal but with fruit. I really cannot say that at this point I am going to give up fruit. Meat and dairy are not a problem but fruit not so sure about that one.
I am eating yummy food, I think I should have cooked the onions a little more... I have wicked onion breath!
