Hi Jane, I'm sorry you're starting to feel deprived. I have two pieces of advice:
ReplyDelete1. I don't see you eating a lot of vegetables. Most of our meals are one thing, so it probably feels pretty one-dimensional. Even adding a single veggie as a side dish, let alone experimenting with all the fun ways to prepare them, will not only add more heft and nutrition to your diet, but more variety and satiety. Even just roasting veggies in the oven tossed in olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder and cinnamon is a quick luscious add to any meal...or sautéing up some spinach or other greens really quickly.
2. I know you're trying not only to be vegan, but healthy, but seems like you could add some treats to your meal plan. Soy yogurt with nuts, a little Daiya vegan cheese, mix up a gravy with nutritional yeast...give yourself something a little richer sometimes to make you feel satisfied.
That's my advice, keep me posted ;)
