What I Eat - Day Seventy

Breakfast - Roasted Potatoes and Avocado

I cut up the potatoes the night before, and boiled them for about ten minutes. Afterwards, I coated them in oil and seasonings and laid them out on baking sheets...this way all I had to do in the morning was turn on the oven!   I haven't prepared potatoes this way before, normally I just cut them up raw and fry them in a frying pan.   They were really good, and delicious with avocado!

These potatoes came from a farm outside of Powassan, but I also often buy organic potatoes because they are one of the dirty dozen. 

Lunch - Sushi

I really enjoyed my first time eating at the The Kabuki House, where they were kind enough to make my friend and me a special platter that didn't include any shellfish or tempura.   As long I remember to bring my own Tamari Sauce, sushi is a great lunch option!

Snack - Roasted Fava Beans

I'm 99% sure I found these at Sobey's, but I've forgotten.   At any rate, they were a nice treat!   For some reason, all of my friends I offered these to commented on how crunchy they were.   I'm not sure why this was surprising, but it really seemed to catch everyone off guard.   Unfortunately, I noticed I started reacting to these if I ate them too frequently, I'm not sure what I'm reacting to (there isn't an obvious source of gluten). 

Dinner - Tofu and Kale Salad

I diced the tofu and cooked it at a medium heat with San-J Szechuan-Style Sauce until the liquid had evaporated and the tofu had absorbed the sauce.    I didn't enjoy this sauce on a stir-fry, but it's really good on the tofu!

The kale salad was made with organic kale (rinsed and chopped), a chopped organic apple, sunflower seeds, and a flavoured balsamic vinegar (that had been massaged into the kale).   There's a new shop that just opened in North Bay that specializes in flavoured olive oils and vinegars, Adoro.
