Vegan Burgers

with vegetable-based "meat"balls which are tons better than soy based ones, in my opinion. Two buns with poppy seeds and one with sesame filled with pickles, mayonnaise, ketchup and vegan cheese.

Pistachios, Chocolate Wafers, Persimmons

Roasted and slated pistachios are amongst my favorite nuts next to cashews. I emptied an entire 300 grams bag in that bowl and every single one of the pistachios was easy to open, which, is not always the case. In previous bags, I encountered quite a few nuts still fully enclosed in their shells and, believe me, they are not easily cracked.

Vegetable Fried Rice

A wonderfully healthy, easy to eat meal with red and green peppers, tomato cubes, carrots and onions. I would have added peas and corn, as well, but I didn't find any more in the freezer.

Coca-Cola Toy Truck, Vegan Pizza

So the truck is not food, but you have to admit that it's pretty fancy. I got it with the purchase of a pack of two bottles of coke. The text says: "Make someone happy!".
I've decided to make more vegan pizza because it's delicious. This time, I added thin potato slices that I dipped in olive oil and rubbed with garlic - I got this idea from an Italian recipe. The other half of the pizza got stolen~

Fornetti Pastries

Fornetti is a chain of pastry stores in my country and several others. They have a wide variety of puff pastries, both salty and sweet, but I got only a few that are edible by the fasting individual. What I have here contain apple, cherry, respectively walnuts. One thing that I'd like to point out: the apple pastry (-rectangles on the left) taste like real apple, something which is not very common in bought pastries.

Spaghetti with Tuna Ragu

I don't know if you can tell, but I made way too much sauce and had to eat quite a bit without pasta. The good thing about this, though, is that eating the sauce plain is not a chore unlike other sauces such as garlic based ones which are enjoyably edible only with other foods.
On a side note, most of my blog's viewership comes from the United States, so I decided to "celebrate" this with an upside down flag!

Roasted Eggplant Spread

Eggplant mixed with onions, garlic and mayonnaise just ready to be served on bread along with slices of pepper and tomatoes. I find it quite astonishing how from basically just vegetables, such a filling paste can be made.

Cornbread Cake, Fruit Juice, Golden Apple

That marzipan chocolate bar feels a bit out of place, eh?
I added dried apricots and raisins throughout the composition of the cake to counter-attack the plain taste of simple cornbread.
I've made the juice out of bananas, oranges and apples. None of the fruit flavors overlap one another, you can taste them all with each sip. The glass in the photo is not the only one that I will be drinking, I have enough for two more glasses.
As always, no dessert is complete without fruits so I got myself three clementines, two oranges, one banana and the golden apple.

Piadinas with Tuna

The Italian piadina is a lot like the Spanish tortilla, both being made from roughly the same ingredients. The main difference is that the tortilla uses lard and the piadina uses olive oil. Piadinas are mostly filled with light foods like salads, whereas the tortilla can be filled with anything.
What I have here as breakfast is a simple, yet delicious and healthy meal. Along with the tuna, I also shoved into the three piadinas lettuce, cherry tomatoes and egg-less mayonnaise.
