Chia breakfast and BLT wraps

These have been my two most common foods this week. And my chia breakfast I've been having for months and months now.

Chia Cereal:
3 tbsp chia seeds
1 scoop of vega nutritional shake vanilla flavor
enough water to cover
2 tbsp apple sweetened cranberries.

Mix everything together and let it soak for a few minutes and it is ready to consume. I also travelled around New York/ New Jersey last week, and took ziplock bags full of these three ingredients and I had an instant nutritional breakfast anywhere I went.


BLT wraps:
This takes less than 5 minutes to make, I was inspired by visiting a vegan restaurant in NYC and ordered this, and it was sooo amazing! I craved it so much afterwards that as soon as I came home I bought the ingredients so I could make it too.

2-3 leaves of romaine
1/2 tbsp vegan mayo
1 slice of cheddar vegan cheese (I use Daiya)
3-4 slices of tomato
(the restaurant also had avocado in the wrap, however the avocados at my local organic store were pretty unripe so I went without)
2 slices of tempeh bacon
1 wrap

I take the shortcut way, of using a microwave.. Take a wrap, put the slice of cheese on one side, plus 2 slices of bacon.  Microwave for 45 seconds. Add the tomato, lettuce, and mayo to the other side of the wrap. Roll it up and consume :)

So easy and so satisfying :)

Jalapeño Hummus Quesadillas

I haven't been that great lately at making proper meals. My last final was yesterday and now I have a proposal to really hash out and get done asap.  It's due in 10 days, and proposal writing is a whole new endeavor on my end.

Breakfast was the same old chia plus chocolate plus apples.  See  Busy Mondays for the recipe.

Today I put closer to 3 tbsp of cocoa powder and it was amazing, so chocolatey.  Somehow I've misplaced my stevia.. so I haven't been using it, but apparently with enough cocoa powder it's still amazing.

Lunch I was super lazy today, I had 3 half face toasted sandwiches with coconut peanut butter and vegan chocolate chips.  I know, what can I say, finals.

Dinner I had made some very easy

Jalapeno Hummus Quesadilla
makes 1 quesadilla

1 brown rice tortilla (I use Food for Life brand)
2 tbsp of Jalapeno garlic havarti 'cheese' (Daiya brand)
1/2 zucchini sliced thinly
1/2 tomato chopped
2 tbsp of Jalapeno cilantro hummus (Hope Foods brand)
2-3 tbsp salsa (I thought I had some, turned out I only had tomato sauce, I know completely college student of me, but I used it, and it was actually pretty good as a dipping sauce)

Spread the 'havarti cheese' on half of the rice tortilla.  Place the zucchini and the tomato pieces on the other half.  Put it in the oven on 'broiler' for 3-4 minutes or when the 'cheese' starts to melt/bubble.  Remove from oven, sweep the vegetables atop of the cheese and add the hummus to the empty side of the tortilla, close the tortilla, put it onto a plate and serve with salsa -- or in times of no salsa, tomato sauce will do :)

Hopefully I will find my battery charger for my camera sooooon
