Sooo......

I am still here, promise! I must admit that blogging daily has been a bit of a struggle for me because.... well... i'm a bit lazy. sorry :( haha. i still love you guys! :)


Anyways, here is my "reThanksgiving Dinner" that I had last Monday!

Began with WW dinner rolls...
Crunchy Kale (!) :)...
and a Tofurky! I didn't find one at Thanksgiving last year, so I was particularly pleased to have found it :)
My brother carving the tofurky!!! ^_^
...and an apple gallette. Hooray!


So- today I had a wildwood tofu burger. These things are like super good! But they are a bit high-fat and oily-ish. (12 g) So if it bothers you, bake 'em and squeeze out the oil. Yurp.
And lookie what I got at TJ's! Psyllium! It pretty much tastes like nothing, but you'll want to drink it fast otherwise it turns into flax-egg like mixture.

Hooray! So in case y'all were wondering, the bomb threat was in fact just a threat, but please do pray for my fellow student who is going through a rather difficult time right now.

Thanks guys! :)


oh, in other news, check out tofufreak kitchen for some cakes!

A Fruit-full day.

Snow day today! I love snowdays minus the fact that I'm stuck at home with a bunch of nummy foods. I tried (to no avail) to stay away from snacky foods. Oh well. I digress.

Breakfast: Miso again, but today's miso was a special miso paste from Japan. It had preserved lotus root in it and was sweeter than my usual white miso. Yeck to the sweetness factor.
Bar of the Day: 1/2 of a Clif Pear Apple Strudel Bar. Verdict? I like it, but it's a bit sweet as are all the clif bars (minus the nectar ones)

Sunkist Roasted Almonds. nuts are my downfall :(

Soy yogurt with Bear Naked Apple Cinnamon granola, Puffins, and Fiber One.

and then some nice hot tea :)
Grapefruit 1
Grapefruit 2
2 clementines
PB Banana. Salmonella outbreak? pshhh.
Yeah so I was doing pretty okay snackish wise. Until I had more almonds and Puffins in the afternoon. and then guiltless gourmet chips. eeeep.

Blah. Now I have a bunch of stuff to work on; namely my research paper for freshman comp on binge eating disorders. woohoo. See you all around!

Super Secret Surprise Snack Pack!

Started off the chilly day with a bowl of miso soup: miso paste, tofu, edamame, and some wakame sprinkled with white pepper. Yum!


Behold! I present to thee.... my lunchbag! "What's so great about it?" you ask. Scroll down...
Look! It even has... a cell phone holder?
Guess again! What could that be?
A conveniently perfect sized snack bar holder! (which makes for a convenient midmorning snack holder :D) Bar of the day: Chocolate Coconut Chew Larabar
At the lunch table today, I had sun-dried tomato basil hummus with cukes and 1/2 a Damascus Bakery pita and a grapefruit (love!) :]
After school, a small apple+clementine happily made their way into me tummy.
And later, some Silk soy yogurt with Fiber One and several almonds joined them.
And for dinner-- Steamed brown rice, garlicky kale, and (what else?) braised tofu! Hooray!

I think I really like posting my everyday eats. It really cuts out all of my mindless snacking. Yay! ^_^

Wafflin'

Welcome to my new blog! It's Miso Hungry because, well, me so hungry! ^.^ I'll typically be posting my every day eats here. Check out my other blog to see my more grandiose creations!

Anyways, today, in Freshman Comp, we had a party! So I volunteered to bring a surprise :) And what was my surprise? Waffles! And not just any waffles; hello kitty waffles! Haha.

Here's the equipment, all laid out and ready to go in our teacher's lounge (Most students aren't allowed in there, but I'm special :D). I used the VWAV recipe for basic pancakes and added chocolate chips.

Waffles in the making....

Here's the top of the hello kitty waffle maker! It steamed and made odd squealing noises while cooking, so I got a video of it; it's at the end of the post :)


...Ding! Waffles!



First portion. I hadn't found cooking spray for these, so they stuck pretty bad :/ haha.



Second portion of the batch. I used more spray for these, so they stuck less.


Here's the squealing kitty!
