Philly

I'm a little over a month behind on many things...

We went to Philly in June and who knew there was such good VEGAN food there?

This was dinner one night.  OMG, so good.  I would go back in a heartbeat to eat there again.  They had a super fun "cheese" board as a starter, awesome pizza, good burgers (the buns weren't my favorite, but that is my only mild complaint).  Amazing desserts--brownies, tiramisu, ice cream sandwiches on delicious cookies.

And then there was

Fast food vegan, with all compostable wrappers/plastic ware.  So tasty -- we ate there twice.  They had fun milkshakes!  I loved the Philly "cheesesteak" wrap and the curry wrap ... I had a bite of the Bistro Bell....YUM!  I could have eaten there a few more times, but we were only there for 3 days.

I am hopeful that when I go to DC for work I'll get to go to the Hip City Veg there.

We also had dinner at my nephew's house and he made is what I am now calling "the Philly burrito."  I'll share what I've done with it since I've come home.

I didn't get pictures of food 'cause I was too busy shoving the food in my face... Here's a picture of the girls with their cousin at the Ben Franklin Science Museum.  We enjoyed Philly!

 

August Post

All month, I've been trying to find a moment to blog. I have been unsuccessful. We had a lovely 10-day vacation at the beginning of the month. I had hoped to blog during that down time, but a vacation, where one isn't cooking at all, and one isn't eating very health foods doesn't make fodder for a healthy food blog.

I will tell you that the trick I used to make sure the girls ate some healthy stuff each day. Each day, I made the girls an Amazing Green Chocolate shake mixed with soy milk. Not as good as homemade Momba I at least knew they got a little good stuff.

Okay. Now that I have one post done I'm going to take some time this holiday weekend and put links in to all the recipes I have collected over this busy summer that I want to try.

Yummy vegan food at the resort we went to for Nick's Birthday

His birthday was a while ago, but better late than never. We love this resort.

 
Garlic Broccoli

 

From the Salad Bar

 
Gazpacho

 
Tofu with sauteed veggies--this was so good, I ate it for two meals!

 

Berries with hot fudge! Super yummy! Lots of antioxidants in the berries and the fudge!

I didn't get all of our meals and I didn't get one of the tofu bacon. I also had a super good hummus wrap, and a delicious southwestern veggie burger. Yum! We plan to go back to this resort in 2019 when the girls are old enough to go, too.
