I hope I learned my lesson this time. I ate some spinach artichoke dip yesterday and within half an hour had swollen feet and hands and felt like a slug...It was delicious but not worth that. Guess I will need to make my own version without the dairy and the salt. If fact yesterday was a dairy binge - I had a bit of greek yogurt on my berries in the morning (can't find plain soy yogurt without traveling to cool springs and the flavored stuff is okay, but too sweet for me). That dip for lunch and dinner had cheese on the veggie enchiladas and jalepeno dip and tres leches cake for dessert...(Chuy's rocks) The veggie enchiladas were very good and next time I'll just have 'em hold the cheese, skip the dip and maybe the cake (but really it is the best dessert in Murfreesboro and very nearly irresistable). Sooo, breakfast was a bowl of brown rice, pumpkin seeds and raisins and a couple of Morning Star link sausages and a mango and berries smoothie made with almond milk. I could live on this, it was yummy and I feel better already.
This weekend is going to be a challenge - there is a huge gathering of Kermicles in Illinois and the food so far on the list of what people are bringing is not vegan friendly. Plus this is a town with only a few restaurants, all meat and dairy havens cause it is farm country. Guess I'll be bringing my own tofu salad sandwiches.....
