Oil - free Vegan Menu

Breakfast: Hemp Seed - Banana Smoothie
Lunch: Quinoa Salad
Dinner: Romaine lettuce Salad, Kiwi and Homemade Pear Juice.
 
Hemp Seed, Banana Smoothie
For breakfast I like to make something simple, like a smoothie: ½ cup hemp seeds, 1 cup water, 3 tbsp. freshly squeezed lemon/lime juice, 1 banana +/- one of these ingredients: ½ cup (parsley, basil, oregano, cilantro, spinach, raspberries or strawberries etc).
 
Quinoa Salad
4 cups cooked quinoa- (any color you like)- I used white quinoa.
An assortement of vegetables of your choice (celery, orange, grean and yellow peppers, steamed broccoli, onion etc) and raisins.
Served with your choice of oil-free vinagrette (today made from 1 garlic clove, 2 tbsp lemon juice, 1 tbsp tahini, salt, pepper, 1 tsp mustard, oregano , ¼ cup OJ – I put it all in a small chopper to mix it well). It also goes well if adding some sunflower seeds.
 

Romaine Lettuce Salad, Kiwi and Homemade Pear Juice
Just as in the picture: over romaine lettuce I added yellow, red and orange peppers along with tomatoes. The vinagrette was oil-free (see recipe above). For dessert I had kiwi and freshly made pear juice. YUMM!
Thank God for Fasting!
