I was happy I did not spend all day and night at work. The Board meeting let out around 7:00 and that was better than 8:30. I don’t think anyone wants to spend that much time at work. Thankfully Board meetings are once a month. Today went by super fast and I think I’m getting nervous as the week ends. I start my new position next Monday. I think it will be crazy doing two jobs, having two offices but the extra income is a bonus.
Breakfast:
Greek yogurt and granola
Snack Time
Orange, apples and Coconut water
I was feeling this lunch today, considering I’m a wimp and it was freezing outside…maybe just myself being silly. I can’t believe snow is in the forecast for later this week…Crazy Texas Weather!
Lentil soup and spicy grilled cheese
Dinner
Roasted carrots, steamed green beans
I really loved the rice and grounds (meat free) mixture!
Quorn Grounds, seasoned with spices and tossed with brown rice. Yum
The Ultimate Vegan Dessert
No picture…I gobbled the brownie up before I remembered to snap a shot. lol
I made Vegan Black Bean Brownies from Happy Herbivore for a bake sale tomorrow. You know I had to make a small test batch to make sure they were yummy…they were.
Night,
Nicci

Lentils are my fave. I haven’t made lentil soup in a while, though. I bookmarked the black bean brownie recipe. I’ve never had success with homemade brownies, but maybe I need to use better chocolate?!
Good luck with starting your new position!

Black bean brownies sound great. I may have to give that a try. Looks like a nice fruit plate. Glad the meeting did not go all night.

Black bean brownies are awesome!! Love them!

Every time I see granola on a blog, I drool. I can’t buy the stuff though. My granola = your string cheese.

I am a HUGE fan of black bean brownies. I don’t eat sugar, so I use maple syrup to sweeten them. I love serving them to people without letting them know the secret ingredient….then seeing the surprise on their faces!
