Soup for Sicky

I made it to choir feeling fine but as the rehearsal went on my throat started feeling worse and worse. I decided to be my own Jewish mother and make Matzo Ball Soup! hahaha. The impromptu recipe was:
  • less than 1/4 cup chopped celery
  • about 7 baby carrots
  • less than 1/4 cup chopped yellow onion
  • 1 cup Wolfgang Puck vegetable broth (all I had left!)
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 vegetable bullion cube
  • 4 matzo balls made by the directions on the package
The matzo balls called for egg so I used egg replacer. Seems logical! I was nervous that it wouldn't be the same texture or something weird would happen but it actually worked out fine. This is what a replaced egg looks like.
I've never made matzo balls before. I was pretty pleased with myself!
A mug of throat coat and Jewish penicillin (minus the chicken). Just what I need!
I was only going to have half the batch but it really wasn't much so I just went ahead and had the rest.
I love this ring! It deserves a shot of its own. It was a gift from my lovely roomie Kelsey.
My throat was calling for something cold! This chocolate ice cream is made out of coconut milk yuuummm!
I microwaved some frozen berries for a minute as a sauce.


I was dying to try this my new granola. Dark chocolate almond granola, who can imagine a better combo??
I approve :)
It's way past my bed time now, see you in the AM!

All Sunny and Nice Out

Lunch! I went straight to the gym after class and did a quickie workout: 20 minutes on the eliptical strider machine (or something) and some abs on the mat. After I stopped at the Co-op which has everything a vegan girl could want.
I decided to make a sandwich with an eggplant burger patty. I love this chicken seasoning (no worries, no actual chicken involved). I used it when I cooked the patty.
I also tried Almond Pepper Jack cheese which I've never had before. Verdict: it's awesome! good texture, good flavor, even melted a little. yay!
I also picked up some throat coat because my throat is not happy today.
Rockin sandwich, throat coat, and the rest of my cranberry juice. Perfect lunch!
The sandwich needed something red like tomatoes but Tapatio was close enough.
Dark chocolate covered blueberries!!!! 1/4 cup is 190 calories, I am in heaven!
I think I really am affected by the weather. It's all sunny and nice out and today I feel all sunny and nice. I love the rain but I think I can only handle a few days before I turn into a stress bucket like last week. I loose my motivation.

Choir in an hour so I betta get ready!
