 Im back again today with another What I Ate Today post. One, because I love watching/reading them. Two, because I love sharing my meals. Three, because they are great for inspiration.

In my previous what I ate, I mentioned that I was 95% plant based. But then like a few days later, I was just like nope, Im not supporting the dairy or egg industry. So Im now 100% vegan. Im thinking of maybe doing another post on it; Id love to know if you guys are interested in that.

 Anyway now onto what I ate the other day (because then I have time to edit the photos and write the post without feeling rushed like I would be if I shared on the same day).

Breakfast

I started my day the same as any other by drinking as much water as I felt I needed the moment I woke up, then made a cup of tea followed by my lemon tea - gotta get hydrated in the morning! Just so these posts dont get monotonous, Im not always going to include pictures of them.

Afterwards, I made myself a delicious mango and banana smoothie bowl - literally on of my favourite things, but I dont have it often as mangoes can get expensive (hmmm, I may need to start bulk buying). Let me tell you, the mango I used was so sweet and juicy, perfectly ripened! I remember when I first tried mango, I hated it! Why? Well it was because it wasnt ripe.

I topped the smoothie bowl with some oats, coconut and dried figs (which I used up and need to pick up some more, but Lidl has stopped selling them and they were so cheap at only 50p for quite a lot - sad times).

Lunch

It was one of those days were hunger just crept up on me, so a quick lunch was needed. This is one of my go to meals - brown rice, peas, sweetcorn, spinach and spices. So simple, yet so delicious! 

Tea

Tea was a little bit of recipe testing and this was the creation - a green goodness pie (there will be a recipe in the future)

Snack

I love having some kind of snack and lately these double chocolate shortcakes by minimalist baker have been my obsession!  I find they are a lot like scones and love topping them with a bit of strawberry jam. They are becoming an addiction, Ive probably gone through about a batch a week (by myself). 

Of course I had to have my cup of tea with them - perfect way to end the day. Yes, I drink my tea through a straw. Dont judge.

What is something youve been loving lately food wise?
