Tonight’s dinner is a Thai peanut quinoa salad with raw zucchini, carrots, bell peppers, and red cabbage.

Notes: 17
The bad news is I’m still trying to secure a job down here :( sad. But, the good news is today Dane and I started working on the garden and then I made green smoothies for the guys and they all loved it. It’s amazing how good almond milk, spinach, banana, and a little protein powder can be. That’s my go-to, but today we added about a cup of strawberries and raspberries.
For a single-serving, I do:
- 1 cup almond milk
- 2 cups spinach
- 1 banana
- 2 scoops Trader Joe’s vanilla protein
- 1/2 cup water

Reblogged From vegan-veins
35$ for two weeks worth of fresh veggies and fruit, breads (most for freezing!), and tofu. Everything else we need is all stocked up: plenty of cereal, quinoa, TVP spices, legumes, beans… SET DOWN HERE IN THE ATL.
In addition, I FINALLY found replacements for my Joseph’s flax wraps… Well, I guess it didn’t really take that long. These have only 60 calories, 6g of protein, and 11g of fiber!
Almost three cups of napa cabbage (going grocery shopping later, wanted to finish off what was left), half a cucumber thinly sliced, three radishes sliced, and a 1/3 cup of chickpeas with the peanut dressing I just posted.
One of my new housemates, Brandon (who owns the house), saw me making it last night and was like “That is a LOT of food.”
Yet, considering it’s all raw vegetables, I don’t really care :)
