Orange Peels Chocolate, Sour Cherry Jello

This dark chocolate with orange peels is surprisingly good, but the best thing that I ate today is the jello-like consistency of the sour cherry from the chocolates which resemble the choco bananas. As for fruit, there's a new addition to the citrus family: the mandarin orange - the ones that have a lighter shade of orange. There are three types of citrus in the photo .. it takes experience to be able to tell the difference between them.

Pasta with Smoked Salmon in Sour Cream

Also, the sauce contains chunks of red bell peppers and leeks. This is the second time I prepare this food and for good reason: everything about it is perfect. Every ingredient complements the others, the taste is heavenly. It's my favorite food whenever I'm fasting. Yes, the sour cream is vegan.

Roasted Pumpkin

This is my second attempt ever at roasted pumpkin and I can safely say that I improved. This batch definitely deserves the title "Roasted" as opposed to "Burnt". The only thing that I would change next time I put pumpkin in the oven is the size of the chunks. I will try making relatively thin slices which should guarantee even and fast roasting.

Tortillas with Tuna and Arugula

As opposed to the similar meal that I ate a few days ago, this one is made with tortillas not piadinas and the leaves are arugula not lettuce. Also, in this meal I added cheese and was not disappointed with the outcome. Everything else is the same, mayonnaise, cherry tomatoes. The arugula leaves are bitter on their own and have a strong taste, but mixed with food they are surprisingly delicious.

Whipped Cream-Strawberry Pudding

The above layer is the whipped cream pudding, the one below is strawberry pudding and between the two, poking out in the form of red liquid, I put frozen strawberries. Before putting them in, I like to heat up the frozen strawberries in a bowl in the microwave with a few tea spoons of sugar because otherwise the taste is slightly sour.

Parsley Potatoes with Shrimp and Hake Fish

Yes, those are some awfully maltreated shrimps. I took the stick out of the shrimp before eating; I tend to take big bites out of food and because of the wooden stick, I would have had to take small ones. They tasted fine, they were good, but I am of the belief that, in combination with the potatoes, the hake fish tasted better.

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.
