Official Day 1 of Veganism

I prepared the following meal to bring to work for lunch: Rising Moon Organics Artichoke & Olive Ravioli. I boiled the ravioli and added 2 leaves of dino/lacinato kale and one chopped red beet to the ravioli. When I drained the pasta, I added some garlic salt along with some Frank's Hot Sauce to the dish for flavor. For my two short breaks at work, I brought a bag of raw cashews, walnuts, and almonds as well as some chopped watermelon. 

As for breakfast that morning, I made whole wheat toast with peanut butter, one half a sliced organic Pink Lady apple, one half an organic avocado, and some sliced pineapple and watermelon. I also ate a strawberry Almond Dream yogurt. 

I got Fellini some dog treats from the co-op that were on sale. They're pumpkin and blueberry-flavored and they seriously smell good enough for a human to eat. Fellini loves them as evidenced by her burping in the picture below. 

Lastly, there are two images of the vitamins and supplements I take everyday. There are a few that I might have to switch out as they contain honey and bovine bone. I'm going to wait until I run out of those specific supplements first. Here's a list (from left to right in the pictures):

- Women's 1-A-Day multi-vitamin: self-explanatory 
- St. John's Wort: http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/druginfo/natural/329.html (I use it to help with depression)
- 5-HTP: http://www.herbwisdom.com/herb-5-htp.html (Also used to help boost my serotonin levels)












I love being vegan, Mom!
