Today, I had a Falafel.
1 pouch Boca Veggie ground "burger"
1 whole wheat pita
Shredded Lettuce
Sour cream
Tomatoes
Hot or Tabasco Sauce - I just treat it like a Veggie Pita Taco, lol.
A really easy recipe to make for gatherings is Tomato Basil Pasta.
1 box tri-color rotini (or whole wheat)
1 large can of crushed tomatoes (optional to get a can with oregano and other italian seasonings included)
Dried basil.
Cook Pasta thoroughly and drain, pour crushed tomatoes in, cook just to reheat, cover with as much basil as you like. Easier done than said, there's totally no effort involved - I'm all about this recipe lol.

While I do understand not every one eats meat The concept of eating Veggie ground burger is ...  ..well it just doesn't sit well I'll substitute with lean ground beef and a touch of chilli powder |

I understand that many people do eat meat.... but heated up corpse doesn't sit too well with me. <Grin> But each to their own, diversity is the spice of life, and all that.

Hide yer gnashers WS!
LOL!
Actually you'd be very surprised at the quality and realsiticness (is that a word!!) of many "fake meat" products on the market. I served my dad some Linda McCartney sausage rolls once and he was so convinced they were real meat that I had to get the box out of the re-cycling to show him the ingredients.
Tonight we are off to a new restaurant that has opened round the corner from where I live. I've heard nothing but great reviews about this place so I am really looking forward to it.

WOOOOOOO.....LM Sausage! I understand that product is banned from Canada due to it's unethical production technique. Poor little soy plants force fed steroids and nitrogen to promote faster growth and slaughtered while still babies. The fruit riped from the plant without even an anesthetic! Their tiny little screams tearing through the minds of empaths for miles around. The horror, the horror!..........................   Actually, I have a friend who is a veggian. I have tried some of the meat substitutes she uses. To me, most taste like card board. Soy hot dogs.....no, no, no, no! |

this discussion reminded me of something a friend told me. he said there were people who thought regular vegans and vegetarians were cruel sons of bitches, so they become hyper vegan and they didnt eat anything that casts a shadow, he did tell me where he heard but that isnt remembered at present.

Had fish tonight, not a big fan. But some basmati rice and a pretty decent salad, ordinarilly not a salad guy, but every now and then its alright, specially when you treat cheese like its own food group.

Last night was the last night before my wife comes home, so I had a few things I like but she doesn't.
Lamb chops and salad
For the chops, slow fried in butter, salt pepper and lemon juice
At the end add fresh garlic and oregano.
The salad:
Baby spinach, onion, manzanilla olives, Orange bell pepper, avocado, feta cheese.
For a dressing; 1 part balsamic vinegar, 2 parts EVO, sugar
Wendy doesn't like the smell or taste of lamb, avocado or balsamic
Night before was Dungeoness Crab with melted butter on a bed of Jasmine rice with saffron

PERFECT GRILLED CHICKEN
4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (1 lb.)
1/3 cup Kraft classic Caesar dressing
1/4 cup Kraft barbecue sauce, any flavor,
or Bull's-eye original barbecue sauce
Place chicken on cutting board and use a kitchen mallet, rolling pin or small sauce pot to flatten any thick ends. This step ensures even width and even cooking.
Pour dressing into a large resealable plastic bag.
Place chicken in bag with dressing. Seal bag and refrigrate 30 min. to 1 hour to marinate.
Preheat barbecue to medium heat. Remove chicken from plastic bag and discard marinade. Place chicken on barbecue; cover with lid. Grill 6 to 8 minutes on each side or until cooked through.
Brush with barbecue sauce during last few minutes of grilling time.
Prep: 5 min. total 1 hour 21 minutes (incl. marinating).
Makes 4 Servings.
I made this last night but the BBQ I make my own, but yah it's good.
