what I ate for breakfast...day #0
hello dear www,
So, this is me, failing at keeping a blog running. haha. I’ve started this foodinstaaccount, kept it running for a little while and then quit again. well, it’s been a busy year. but here I am, restarting both my blog and my instaaccount again.
this time for real, because I need to track the next weeks, what I’ve been eating etc to see if my gut health improves. as I posted previous I’m intolerant to alliums (garlic, leek, onions...) and I’ve been vegan for a bit more than two years now. this is not the easiest combination, as you might guess. and while I’ve managed it quite well at home, eating out sucks. it really does. and I’m sick of not being able to enjoy a night out at a restaurant because I already know that I will suffer from cramps and bloating etc.
while I’ve been researching ways to improve my gut health I stumbled across “Eating Clean” by Amie Valpone, an American who’s been suffering from chronic illness and autoimmune diseases for over ten years until she finally cured herself with food.
so I’m going to give this a try for the next couple of weeks. and while I’m a bit afraid of cutting out even more stuff from my mealplan, I’m happy because I really think this could help me and as a nice side effect help me produce less waste! yay!
so this little series for the at least next three weeks is called: “what I ate for breakfast...day #X”
so what did I have for breakfast?? well today... I didn’t start with the clean eating thing yet. I just came home from a trip to Spain and Portugal and was invited to join friends for breakfast. vegan pancakes and vegan omelette...yummie!
but I started the day with some hot water & lemon with a tiny tiny bit of salt. this is a part of a “Yoga Ritual” series I’ve just started again by Adriene Mishler (goddess of youtube-yoga!! <3). In “Yoga Ritual” you do a yoga&meditation session each day, start with water & a lemon slice and a walk. (I haven’t done the practice yet...gonna do it before bedtime, unwind the day etc...)
of course the dietary change isn’t limited to breakfast, so I will give you an insight of what I had for lunch: buddha bowl! this food trend finally hit me, although I think I kind of did them before they were a thing, just not in a bowl. I had some leftovers from yesterday: brussels sprout hummus, roasted cauliflower, sauerkraut, lettuce & mushrooms, topped with lemon juice and fresh coriander. yummie and good for the bowl flora!!
dinnertime? I’ll tell you later, I’m just preparing something, and not sure how it will turn out... hint: squash gnocchis with buckwheat, never cooked with buckwheat before... let’s see!
music of the day: Charlie Cunningham
mood of the day: happy to be home, starting to feel fall-timey
gut feeling of the day: still upset, but slowly calming down
that’s my lunch, by the way :-)
