Scenic Views, Office Plants, Vegan Food, and a Cute Puppy!

I somewhat recently found 2 vegan waffles here is one of them.  When I do eat waffles I tend to eat them dry as a snack.

These were the other waffles I found.  I want to say I found one at Wegman's and the other at Mustard Seed but I'm not completely sure.

Here is another Amy's Kitchen Bowl I recently found at Target.  It was tasty!  I'm thrilled that Amy's is coming out with more vegan options.  I just wish they were a little cheaper.  I usually only grab them if they are on sale OR if it's something I have never tried before.

Here is another Gardein find.  I think I found this at Wegman's but maybe it was Mustard Seed.  I guess that's what I get for waiting so long to post my hauls, eh!?

Of course, this one I found at Trader Joe's!  I have to say I was a fan!  

I blogged yesterday about the VioLife Shred finds but I think they are worth another mention!

These are still in my frig and I'm hoping to eat them soon so they don't go bad.  Has anyone else tried them?  I think I found these at Erie Whole Foods Co-Op.

I've never tried these before but when I saw they were all vegan and all on sale I knew I had to grab them!  Has anyone else tried these yet?

I've been traveling around several different communities the last couple of months - for work - and more than usual.  This is a snapshot from Warren but there are several others I will be sharing over time, too!

This is another from the Warren area.  It's in the Crescent Park neighborhood near the hospital.

At the end of fair week I saw a teenage boy carrying a young puppy around in a bucket.  He said the puppy was newly adopted and overly tired so he wanted to carry him.  This puppy was 'happy as a clam' in this bucket!  It was so funny!

Oh!  I almost forgot to post this photo.  I'm sure I have other photos of this downtown Warren Hickory Street Bridge but it was just a gorgeous day so I had to take another snapshot!

Here is one of my office plants from a few weeks ago!  It's a Purple Waffle Plant.  If you look at the underside of the leaves...they are purple!

And this is my Sunny Star Croton Plant and I LOVE it!  It's one of my FAVES!  I would like to find a Croton that is tri-colored with red, orange, and yellow highlights!

Vegan Veggie Spinach Alfredo Topped Ravioli & Tabouli Salad & Tabouli Salad Sandwiches

 Last night I made this Ravioli.  I've been hungry for Ravioli since dropping dairy from my vegetarian diet.  I ended up ordering some Garlic & Veggie Stuff Ravioli online and topped it with several things I had around the house.  I used Chreese Alfredo Sauce but added more almond milk to it than it required.  I simmered that in with Spinach and Mixed Veggies including: Carrots, Potato, Corn, Peas, and Lima Beans.  It was quiet good.  It wasn't overly seasoned and I LOVE seasonings.  I did use a little bit of Garlic Grapeseed Oil within the mixture and next time I might had some onion and/or chives and more Garlic.

 I also worked ahead last night and made my lunch for today and will have plenty leftover for the next day or two or more.  I cheat.  I use a box mix for Tabouli!  That's what this is.  I just added water, Garlic Grapeseed Oil, Lemon Juice, and Zima Tomatoes. I like this stand alone but also put it in wraps or on top or IN tossed salads...as well as...

 Sandwiches!  So today I'm having Tabouli Salad Sanwiches and they are darn tasty!  Between the Lemon Juice, Mint, and Zima Tomatoes - I think that flavor combo is my favorite part!

Yes!  I can be messy but it's OH SO GOOD!  And Good FOR you!

Midweek Munchies

It's Midweek Munchies Time!  I would LOVE it if you joined in!  Let me know if you do!  Here's what I got/ordered this week!

I shopped online at VeganEssentials.com today as they are having a 10% off incentive
(today and tomorrow ONLY)

 As you can see the few products above I ordered a Garlic Spread!  I LOVE just about ANYTHING Garlic so I thought I would try this!  I also got another spread!  A Nutritional Yeast Spread.  I heard it was comparable to Vegemite or Marmite so I thought I would try it.  I do make a Earth Balance & Nutritional Yeast Sprinkle topping which is ok but wanted to try this, too!

And then you can see I got TWO different kinds of Ravioli!  I have been craving it lately!  I got the Butternut as well as the Garlic & Roasted Veggies!  I really wanted the Artichoke and Olive but they were sold out!

I have also been craving mashed potatoes but have been too lazy to make my own! So I got the Chreesy ones above.  I tried the plain ones before and I didn't care for them only because they didn't taste like anything.  I really had to 'doctor them up'.  But I heard this flavor is the way to go!  I also got some Potstickers - there are a few Wildtree Sauces I want to try with them!  AND...I got a little snack!  Salty Chocolate Snackle Mouth Granola Clusters.  I LOVE Granola.  Oh yes!  I also re-order my FAVORITE Veggie Burgers.  You can read more about them HERE
