Day 7
Before I went to the gym I had a banana. When I got back I had a smoothie with protein powder, frozen peach, strawberries and blueberries, flax, oats, and soy milk. This was delicious.
For lunch I had some leftover sauteed green beans and mushrooms, as well as a salad with greens, radish, cucumber, zucchini, and tofu with green tahini dressing. For dessert I had cantaloupe. Later on I had an apple for a snack.
For dinner that night I made a lasagna using zucchini instead of noodles. This also had eggplant and tofu ricotta and mushroom marinara (with added spinach) from Veganomicon. I topped it off with the white cheese sauce recipe from the Ultimate Uncheese Cookbook (using soy milk instead of water). It turned out pretty good, although the zucchini made everything a little watery. Later on for a snack I had a peach.
Day 8
First thing in the morning I went for a bike ride. When I got back I had protein powder mixed with soy milk, as well as a smoothie made with cantaloupe, pineapple, and flax. I accidentally made this one too watery. Later on for a snack I had a peach.
For lunch I had some leftover lasagna, as well as a salad with greens, cucumber, onion, and oil and vinegar. I also had an apple for dessert.
I was really hungry in the afternoon and ended up eating two peaches and a bowl of plain air-popped popcorn.
For supper I had some leftover chili.
For dessert I whirred up some frozen pineapple in my food processor. Voila, pineapple sorbet.
That evening I was really hungry again and ended up eating two peaches, more popcorn, and some raisins.
Day 9
For breakfast I made a smoothie with cantaloupe, pineapple, orange juice and flax.
For lunch I had a salad with spinach, mixed greens, beets, cauliflower, broccoli, onion, chickpeas, and the "honey" mustard vinaigrette from Eat, Drink, & Be Vegan. For dessert I had a peach and some cherries. Later on in the afternoon I had an apple for a snack.
Around dinner time I didn't have time to cook so I grabbed a banana and a few more cherries. I didn't actually get to cook my dinner until waaaay later. By then I was so tired that I threw some random things in a pot to quickly make some curried lentils. Not a pretty picture I know, but I was exhausted and famished. I also had a peach for dessert.

Carrie, you are so creative and everything looks delicious! Is there a menu/guideline you're following? Kathye
Everything sounds (and looks!) so good! Especially the zucchini lasagna...would you be willing to share the specifics of the recipe?
Thanks!
Courtney
Yum! I would love to do this with you but I don't have the energy to cook two different meals. You know...grumpy. pshaw. I did at least have scrambled tofu tonight and gave him leftover manicotti!
I love the idea of using zucchini instead of noodles for lasagna, why haven't I tried that before? It sounds awesome. Also love the honey mustard dressing from ED&BV, isn't it the best?
