I needed to try new recipes this week now that I joined weight watchers again. It is difficult to be vegan on weight watchers and staying fully vegan might come to an end, but that’s for another blog post. I do want to add I lost 2.6 pounds this week so I’m moving in the right direction. I feel better too. I needed to get back under control. I made this recipe this week putting it over some brown rice….
This is definitely been a new one for me. I probably have been on and off weight watchers since I’ve been about 10. There’s nothing I really don’t know about dieting, especially the weight watchers plans. However this one actually requires a lot of thought. The current plan, called smart points, is a protein-based plan. Meaning, lean meats are the lowest points. Carbohydrates, even the whole-grain complex ones, a much higher points. The vegan diet, obviously, does not eat any meats….

I made this recipe and I have to be honest,I hated the taste with the sun dried tomatoes. However I learned a very handy tip when cooking.

I haven’t talked about this topic in a while. Yep, I am still vegan, except my coffee. I’m still adding a little bit of half-and-half, so shun me. I just cannot handle that non-dairy milk alone in my coffee cup. Other than that, I have no issues, no cheats, no tastes no nothing. My weight? Well I gave up my scale and I checked in this month and it’s holding steady at 150.5 lbs. Not my thinnest number but definitely…
