It's that time of the week again, let's find out what I've been eating...and what Avery's been eating too, since she seems to have claimed a permanent spot on these weekly updates. So without further ado, here's my gluten-free, vegan eats for the day:  |
| Just woke up snack: 2 slices Rudi's Multigrain Gluten-free toast, Earth Balance butter, organic strawberry jelly. |
 |
| Breakfast: Chocolate Ice Cream Smoothie...have you tried this one yet? Oh so good. |
 |
| Mid-morning snack: Food For Life Gluten-Free English muffin, Earth Balance butter, and honey (not so vegan I know, but I've been trying it as an alternative to cough medicine and I just couldn't resist it as topping for this!) |
 |
| Lunch: Sloppy Joes (made with TVP...an essential vegan ingredient), on Rudi's Multigrain Gluten-free bread, and with FoodShould Taste Good Sweet Potato chips, oh and a little organic mustard on top never hurt anybody. |
 |
| Afternoon snack #1: organic gala apple |
 |
| Afternoon snack #2: Beanitos Black Bean Chips in "Chipotle BBQ" flavor, oh yeah, these babies are back. Taste just like "BBQ Krunchers" chips from back in the day, but way healthier! |
 |
| We put our Christmas tree up this week in my preschool classroom, so I took advantage of it and got all my student's pictures in front of it...me included. Let the holiday fun begin! |
 |
| Afternoon snack #3: Chocolate Chip Larabar...jeez I eat a lot of snacks in the afternoon. What can I say, pumping and teaching must make me hungry! |
 |
| Just-got-home smoothie: "Green Orange Julius": Vanilla Sun Warrior Rice Protein Powder, orange juice, spinach, 1 1/2 frozen bananas, 3 ice cubes. |
Brandon went skateboarding (indoors) tonight, so Avery and I packed up our dinner and headed over to my parent's house to hang out for the evening.
 |
| Dinner: Lasagna, courtesy of Mama Pea...this is my all time favorite vegan lasagna. I just trade out wheat noodles for Tinkyada rice noodles. Also, the filling is tofu and vegan cream cheese with some spices, and I even put TVP in the spaghetti sauce to remind me of my "crumbled meat" days. |
Let's find out if Avery liked it...
 |
| She couldn't get it in her mouth fast enough! |
 |
| Or on her face! |
 |
| Getting her little drink of water is her favorite part of the meal. |
 |
| Vegan Lasagna...a new favorite for Avery. |
 |
| My dessert: Chocolate Pudding by Angela, so delicious... made with avocados. |
 |
| Avery's Dessert: Playing hide-and-seek in her Combi "Car Walker" that I mentioned in last week's WIAW. |
 |
| "Hey Maverick (dog in picture) where's grandma?" |
 |
| "There she is!" |
 |
| Oh no, watch out Grandma! Looks like I missed a spot of sauce, check out that eyebrow- lol. |
 |
| She loved "driving" on all the hardwood floors at Grandma and Grandpa's house. |
