Whoo, that's a spicy lunch

I'm trying to be a better blogger again.

While I was walking (walking, walking, walking) this morning I thought of something I wanted to post, and then I forgot what it was. But that reminds me, remember that 1 million steps in 2 months challenge? I made it. I don't think I already told you that, did I? And then I signed up for another, which should take me up to the "baby window" ... it's a lot of stepping, about 18000 a day, a little more on weekdays to make up for my little less on Sundays.

Anyway.

there's my lunch today.

Sichuan Seitan with bok choy and water chesnuts.

It's a kimodification of This Recipe for Sichuan Tofu With Garlic Sauce at Fat Free Vegan.

'Cause I'm not fond of tofu, and I'd made some "chicken" seitan the other day, all by myself, and was kinda pleased with the texture it added to my unfried stir-fry.

I eyeballed the spicy ingredients, since I didn't have the called-for chili-garlic paste anyway, I just squirted some Sriracha sauce in, and added some garlic. Whoo, it's spicy. But in a good way. It's also tart, from the vinegars. It calls for two types, but I didn't have any black rice vinegar, although I must say now I'm intrigued and will look for it or at least read up about it. But I might use less vinegar next time.

Oh, and I'm eating it over a brown rice mix containing my favorite brown rice evah - Wehani rice. I think I've already told you how much I love love love the stuff.

How about you, what's on your plate today?

We had jambalaya and biscuits for dinner. A little spicy, but not much.

I am SO hoping right on over to that fat-free Vegan web site after I type this! If I could figure out how to eat totally vegetarian and not feel badly, I sure would. As it stands now, we eat about 95% vegetarian. :) We eat chicken once or twice for dinner and seafood about twice a week.

Anywho, that looks DELISH!!

Happy SEVEN MONTHS, btw. :) Hugs, Robin

Well, I feel bad. I hope my insistent nagging "Why aren't you blogging? Are you ok? What's going on?" isn't making you feel like you are in any way a deficient blogger. You're awesome. I just miss you so much when you go away!

I don't do spicy at all since I quit drinking beer!
