@wfpb Dinner started out as Tom Yum soup, but I started throwing in random veggies and rice noodles. This has shitaki mushrooms, cauliflower, carrots, potato

@wfpb Today, in the never ending search for the best tofu scramble, I am freezing the tofu overnight. Have you frozen tofu? Does it really change the texture? Do you have a favorite scramble?

This arrived last night! I was also about to throw out the last of the non-compliance pantry items.

Doing my menu for the week, I realize this is my first week when I don't have to concern myself with whether or not a new menu item is too weird for the meat eater. I wish I had kept track of all the recipes I wanted to try.

In 2020, my partner and I went all in on the wfpb lifestyle. I reversed my type 2 diabetes (my endocrinologist actually said "your diabetes is in remission. I've never said that before". I have eliminated 4 prescription medications. I still have 20lbs to hit my goal, but that's been a struggle. The first 80lbs were pretty easy. The weight just fell off once I eliminated added oils.

On this afternoon schedule: time to make cheeze sauce to make Chuck's amazing oil-free biscuits to go with tonight's soup for dinner. How did we eat like this when I was working? Right! We didn't, we rotated the same 10 recipes.

I had tried to do WFPB many times before I was able to stick to it. One of the first tries was the McDougall Diet. Part of that was Mary's mini. It worked but the weight would come back because I was going back to a standard American diet, not a WFPB diet. Have you tried it since going WFPB? What was your experience?

Tonight's dinner was another fantastic bowl. Romanesco and butternut squash roasted with shawarma seasoning, Greek potatoes, crispy smokey Royal trumpet, all your basic salad veg, with garlic tahini dressing and vegan tzatziki on the side.

Who else is stress baking today? During 2020, my partner and I were still pretty new to the #wfpb lifestyle and was concerned about staying #PlantBased so I baked 3 loaves of chocolate chip banana bread and we ate it all. Back then, I was just happy to have food that would support my health. Today, I got fancy, with my brand new apple peeler, and made apple cinnamon bread.

Finally finished editing and mixing the audio for the next episode of my podcast with @kamikat. I should have it posted to https://vegenx.com later tonight. #vegan #podcast #wfpbno

I recently became a #vegan for health reasons. #wfpbno #forksoverknives I am increasingly interested in health and well being based on my experiences working on my heart health. I have a few wearables and am endlessly fascinated with comparing what they reveal and how I feel moment to moment. I have been practicing mindfulness for years and tend to see that is an integrated part of my health.

I don't often share pictures of food on its own but lately Andrea has been knocking it out of the park, both flavor and nutrition. #wfpbno

I baked these on Sunday and froze them for the coming weeks. We thawed a half for barbecue sandwiches (using soy curls) last night. These may be the best loaves I've baked yet. #wfpbno #vegan #veganbaking

I had to order new pants for fit for the first time in decades. Usually I buy pants when the old ones wear out. This is what a month of dedicated exercise and a whole food, plant based diet with no added oil has wrought. Well on track to be in the best shape of my life by fifty (by 2023.) #wfpbno #vegan

I love breakfast sausage patties, always have. The packaged vegan brands are all pretty good and an important stepping stone for me. In order to cut any added oil out of my breakfast and still have a patty I had to make own. These are from the Fat Free Vegan's recipe. #wfpbno #vegan

And now we have sandwich bread for the week. Like my breakfast loaves, these have no added oil. Except for possibly the top crust, they are also free of problem ingredients for Andrea so she can enjoy them too. #wfpbno #vegan

In the pans for the second rise before going into the oven. I will give the to an aquafaba way and score them like the breakfast loaves from last weekend. #wfpbno #vegan

Making some bread for sandwiches. Setting these to rise while we take the dogs for a walk in this wonderful weather. #wfpbno #vegan

For this week's hummus-like dip, I followed Andrea's ideas, to double the pureed lemon and double the garlic, half fresh and half roasted. I think the new food processor also helped me achieve this amazing texture. #wfpbno #vegan
