Vegetarian risotto with asparagus, carrot, mushroom and cheese

It was so steamy it steamed my lens. 

Falafel pie. By the vegan stoner

So, I tried the fafafel pie on the blog called the vegan stoner. Love the illustrations. I added some avocado and made my own hummus with red peppers added. 
The cucumber was watery and made the sauce runny -- it was all delicious. 
Easy.  Mix falafel mix with water, bake for 15 mins at 350 in the bottom of an 8x8 pan. Let cool. Layer some hummus on top. Cut up 1/2 a cuke and some tomato (added avocado here) layer on. Make tzatziki sauce with other 1/2 of cuke, yogurt (soy) and tsp lemon juice. Drizzle that on. And viola. Dinner.

Digestion back on track. Check.

It seems like I'm never hungry. I don't know if my stomach shrank or just solid food just seems to be staying in there longer than juice did. Yesterday's meals 
Egg on whole grain toast with avocado 

Lunch was soup. (Butternut squash, sweet potato, leeks and carrots). Pumpkin seeds on top. 

And for dinner "lasagne". It was polenta, vegan cheese sauce with kale and portobello mushrooms and topped with marinara and "cheese". 

My meals


Yesterday's meals consisted of soup for lunch
And some brick like bread

For dinner I made zoodles. Zucchini cut to look like spaghetti. 
I sautéd them and topped with an avocado pesto. (Avocado, basil and garlic into cuisinart). 

Topped with organic cherry tomatoes.

My first solid meals

I've seen a lot that it should just be fruit or smoothies or whatever. 
I've anxiously awaited this day for about a month. 
This is the Kuri squash I roasted yesterday for my soup for today's lunch 

This is the bread mix (from Ikea). 

It's almost the same color as the counter. ;)
It's raw and waiting to rise.
