My breakfast was a little different today. I took some raw oats and mixed it with soy yogurt. I topped it with diced apple, wild blueberries and walnuts. It was really yummy but totally filling.Lunch was on the run with Maddie...not a good place to be!! Especially considering what I had read just that morning! Anyway we got french fries. I checked to make sure that they weren't fried in lard, so they were vegan but oh so unhealthy. I really felt kind of crappy afterwards. I don't think that I'll have a repeat on this for the rest of the cleanse even though, technically speaking, we were still within the guidelines.
Dinner was relatively simple although I am getting tired of cooking two meals. I made a vegetable fried rice, steamed fresh green beans and yellow squash sauteed in Earth Balance and sprinkled with thyme. I used soy sauce and eggs in the family pan, while Maddie and I had ours without eggs and seasoned with wheat-free tamari. I topped off the rice with mushrooms and garlic sauteed in olive oil. It was tasty!
So now the dishes are done and I've got raspberry herbal tea steeping to make iced tea for tomorrow. I'm going to stretch out with my latest book and some pomegranate tea. At the moment I'm reading "Enlightenment for Idiots" a novel by Anne Cushman and so far it's pretty good.
