Everyone in Brooklyn got sick, so my plans for the day were cancelled. Spent the morning making baba, road the big bike around the tip of Manhattan to catch some fresh air and had a nice vegany lunch with T. We went to a hippy dippy supermarket together and I picked up some fresh brussels to make B happy, and a jar of spirulina to experiment with my smoothies.
Still sore from Tuesday's work out, particularly my pecs and inner thighs. Looking forward to pushing it again tomorrow.
TODAY'S COOKING
Baba Ganoush: No recipe, just winged it. Roasted a 1.5 lb eggplant at 400 for 40 minutes, along with a head of garlic going bad soon. In the food processor 1/2 cup of tahini, 2 lemons juiced and zested, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 tsp smoked paprika, 1/2 tsp cumin, a couple of glugs of olive oil, 3 raw cloves of garlic minced. Eggplant dunked in ice water for 10 minutes to make skinning easy. Roasted garlic squeezed into the bowl. Blended finely, chilled.
Roasted brussels: Split, tossed with olive oil, salt, pepper, 400 for 20 minutes. Their faces got nicely charred, the bodies soft and tender, really good. Gotta make these more often.
AM SNACK: 8am, iced green tea
BREAKFAST: 10am, 2 pancakes, .5 bowl, hunger 4/5
SNICKLELUNCH: 1:30pm, vegan Cesar salad, cup of dahl, water, 1 bowl, hunger 4/5
DINNER: 6pm, momma salad with baba, Roasted brussels & sauteed shrimp with soy yogurt curry sauce over tabouli, 1.25 bowl, hunger 4/5
EVENING SNACK: 8pm, peanuts & chocolate chips, .25 bowl, hunger 4/5
EVENING SNACK: 10pm, potato chips, .25 bowl, hunger 4/5
Thought more than usual before eating this. I intended the chocolate to end my eating day, but I felt oddly hungry, ready for more, desiring not sweet but savory/salty. I guess all the healthy food I've been eating just has less calorie density.
