Vegetarian Lunch, Day Four

More Beans Please! That’s right, I chose more beans for lunch on Day Four of the 5 Days Challenge. Not only was this Burrito Salad from Martha’s vegetarian, but it was vegan and gluten free! So, many of my fellow participants could eat this delicious option. It’s kind of like a Burrito, without the tortilla. Or like a Taco Salad, without the chips. Thus….a Burrito Salad! Layers of beans, rice, lettuce, tomato, and jalapenos were topped with tofu. The gluten free could choose beef or chicken too.
(I added a bunch of tabasco sauce to bump up the spiciness).IMG_20140306_122009920

Day Four – Vegetarian!

I’m 8 months pregnant and craving so much dairy this week!  It must be because I’m eating less meat. There are beans galore in every Cornell Dining operation – so I’m certainly getting my fill of beans for protein….
Just for a morning snack, I drank a large latte and had some Chobani yogurt.  The staff at Carol’s Cafe made my “pregnancy decaf” latte perfectly!  More dairy please!

Team Vegetarian – Day One

Veggie Lunch at North StarDay One – It was Taco Monday at North Star.  I look forward to Taco Monday.  I usually build a taco salad, which is what I did today, sans the meat.  I had a wonderful mix of greens, spinach, corn, salsa, shredded carrots, black olives, and topped with (vegan) refried beans.  I used broken hard shell corn tacos to scoop up the refried beans.  Spicy.  Colorful.  Filling.  I was satisfied.
