Leftover Rice?...... Make Pizza!
Used frozen dough for the crust (will not do this again). Drained diced tomato, "pepperoni" slices, red pepper rings,jalapeno rings, red onion rings, spinach layer, and then sauteed shitake mushrooms. Then used one of M's sauces with modifications that have been noted. Turned out fabulous!
Over the weekend, also made barbecued seitan strips - tasty and easy!

Food Links
After a bout of avocado sandwich obsession that had to come to a sudden end, I am back on track. This is what I've been eating this week:
Curried lentils and rice (with raisins, sunflower seeds and diced apple - yum!) with homemade curry powder
Polenta lasagna with spinach and portabella mushrooms
Portabella mushroom burger (had leftover mushroom from the lasagna)
Spicy tofu with peppers & cashews (without the oil served over mashed potatoes)

The last couple of days was variations of leftovers.
Dinner last night was salad with baby greens from my deck garden, romaine, carrots, cucumbers, tomatoes and sunflower seeds with a small amount of Annie's dressing. Whole wheat rolls with white bean spread (McDougall's cookbook pg. 251) and tomato soup (Jennifer Raymonds - Fat-Free & Easy pg.69)

Fear vs. Love
In hindsight, it's pretty clear when one's approach is fear-based or love-based.
I try to come from a place of love, but sometimes, I slip into a fear derived mind-set without realizing it. During this time, I stop taking care of myself, I feel tired, depressed even. I don't journal, I don't practice yoga and I don't listen to my music or meditate.
Fortunately, once this is recognized, it's fairly simple to realign and get back to a heartful, mindful, intent and focus.

Sunday December 6th
For breakfast I had a couple of hummus wraps (was out of pita bread). Lunch was more leftover chili.
Dinner, I sliced three large potatoes into "french fries", spritzed two glass baking dishes with oil, dusted the fries with a bit of salt, garlic powder and ground black pepper, laid them in the dishes & dashed with a very light coating of oil and baked until crispy (oven was at 430). While these started baking, chopped up some onion, jalapeno, red pepper, defrosted tofu cubes, cremini mushrooms and broccoli - squirted with a bit of Braggs and put these in the oven on a tin-foil lined baking sheet (a must for easy clean up) - toasted a couple of whole wheat rolls with corn butter and had a delicious meal that qualified as comfort food.
