Food bag feast

(This is a belated VeganMofO post for Monday, October 29.)

This year, at my place of work, there were bags of produce and ingredients for only $15, to make four interesting recipes. I couldn't resist the deal. So last night, with the help of my dad, I made an apple crisp, green bean salad, and carrot-sweet potato-ginger soup. The green beans really stole the show, with a dressing created from readymade tomatillo salsa. The crisp wasn't my favorite-- I prefer a chunkier topping-- and I would've added more spices to the soup, although I love it's hearty healthiness. I also made up some Gardein chick'n patties and spaghetti squash, and bought a gorgeous olive focaccia slab from Little T Bakery.

Tomatoes, apple crisp, pear

Today's snacks:

• Tomatoes-- A medley from Trader Joe's.


• Apple crisp-- Leftover from last night, so it's not crisp at all.


• Pear-- From the finish line of the Columbia Gorge Half Marathon I ran on Sunday, since it's located in Hood River which is famous for its pears (and apples).


• Good Greens (chocolate raspberry) bar-- Not pictured. A coworker left it on my desk, and it was really good!

Booty, apple, banana

Today's snacks:

• Seaweed-- Crunchy, salty, and umami! I love seaweed in many forms.


• Veggie Booty-- Pirate Booty!


• Apple-- Someone left a big basket of them in the kitchen at work.


• Banana-- We have lots still.

Seaweed, corn thins, blueberries

Today's snacks:

• Seaweed-- Crunchy, salty, and umami! I love seaweed in many forms.


• Corn thins-- The baby's very favorite snack.


• Blueberries-- Expensive off-season ones purchased for the baby.


• Banana-- After a Banana song dance party (srrsly), we ran out of these and buying more was an imperative.
