The Catholic Church once ruled that no meat be eaten on Friday to honor of the Lord's Crucifixion. What better time to start a vegan diet. Of course the ulterior motive is better health and a little weight loss, to boot. So this morning's breakfast included fresh berries sprinkled with a little sugar and squirt of fresh lime juice. That was accompanied by a totally veggie omelet. Alright, so eggs are animal protein, but what the hey, the aim is providing a doable switch to healthful eating.
The shared omelet was made with two egg whites and one whole egg for the yellow color so a certain someone wouldn't notice the change. It was filled with finely sliced green beans and a green onion, and topped with half a Roma tomato and thin slice of chopped jalapeno pepper.
Of course these ingredients were fried limp in a teaspoon of organic coconut oil before their fill and garnish jobs.
A trip to the store provided veggie burger patties and a big bag of spinach for a late lunch. It appears that upping the veggies in that omelet kept one less hungry. The veggie burger made with the spinach and thin sliced tomato has done the same. No serious hunger pangs hours later.
So what started all this? Watching an Amazon movie on ROKU called Vegucated. Great documentary!
