Warning Tough Week Ahead

This is going to be a really tough week. Why? Because I have things going on tonight, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday. Two of them are dinners with others, one of which should be pretty easy because I was able to arrange for a meat, cheese and crouton free salad. I'll have lemon juice in my purse, yay. The other is a work function at which I have arranged to give away pizza, chips, soda, and chocolate, EEK! I have no idea how I'm going to pull that off. I'll definitely HAVE to pack some of my eggplant roll-ups that have all the pizza flavor.

Tonight and Wednesday night should be okay because they're personal appointments. They are STRAIGHT after work so I'll have to pack something I can carry in like some of my delish soup. It's also my first week of switching the menu up. I'll be eating the things I really liked from last week BUT in my own order.
 
Todays breakfast was an apple and an orange with a Tablespoon and a half of organic peanut butter, yum! I used the peanut butter in place of the flax seeds because I was in the mood for creamy.
 
Lunch was the roasted mushroom and red pepper wrap referenced in my previous post HERE. I used a wrap this time instead of a pita because I was out of pita. Also, I think I just have to admit to myself that I DO NOT like tahini. I did buy a new kind to see if it was just the brand but I just think it's too bitter. I'm going to try the spread for this wrap with cashew butter or maybe sunflower seed butter next time. Maybe a little salty nut kick. Yikes, that sounds gnarly.

I had a hair appointment after work so I packed a soup thermos with my OMG good soup (recipe HERE) to eat while I got my hair done. Remember to add some Dr. Bragg's Liquid Aminos for some depth. I also left the mushrooms whole this time. I really felt like sautéed mushrooms in the soup. I also used sliced celery instead of celery juice. I think it adds another element of interest. I swear, this soup will never not be in fridge again! Write the recipe down, go to the store, make it, and ENJOY!
