Day 2

Last night, I went out with a group of coworkers. As with many 20-somethings on a Saturday night out on the town, adult drinks were imbibed. This morning, I needed to eat something that would aid in the swift departure of those lousy "morning after" feelings. Normally, I would make a big omelet with lots of cheese, but neither eggs nor cheese are vegan friendly (obvi). I scoured the fridge to find an alternative. I found my two leftover Tofurky Kielbasa sausages from the 4th and decided to make a "hot dog" with one of them. I added avocado, Frank's Hot Sauce, ketchup, and mustard. I chopped up some delicious watermelon slices to help in my rehydration and voilà, the perfect fulfilling and vegan morning after breakfast. 

As for lunch, I decided to make a stir fry. I boiled spaghetti noodles in a pot while I prepared the veggies. I used one bunch of baby bok choy, three leaves of dino/lacinato kale, one half a daikon radish, one half a yellowneck squash, a quarter white onion, half a green bell pepper, and chopped garlic. In a large pan, I added one tablespoon of coconut oil (great alternative to olive oil), one tablespoon of Soy Vay Veri Veri Teriyaki sauce, and a teaspoon of Frank's Hot Sauce. I wanted to add more substance to the stir fry and so I added about one quarter of a package of Chicken-style Seitan sliced into thin strips. I added the veggies and the seitan to the pan of sauces/oil and sautéed them on medium/high for about 8 minutes. I then added the noodles to the stir fry along with another teaspoon of the teriyaki sauce. I stirred the ingredients on medium for about another five minutes. When the stir fry was done I chopped up some organic strawberries and had myself a delectable lunch with a cup of Java House American Gothic coffee with vanilla almond milk.
