What I Eat In A Day (Vegan, Gluten Free And Oil Free)

What I Eat In A Day

What I Eat In A Day

I feel like I haven’t done a “What I Eat In A Day” post in quite a while so I wanted to share one today. As you guys know, my diet is a bit restricted due to health reasons. My primary goal is never to lose a bunch of weight or anything like that. It’s to eat as healthy as I can. So the majority of the month I eat oil free and gluten free. And all dishes mentioned are vegan/plant based too. Hope you enjoy the post!

Oh, and if you want me to share any of the recipes minus the cauliflower bites since I already shared that let me know in the comments and I’d be happy to do so.

Breakfast

Vegan Oil Free Cauliflower Bites Recipe

As you guys know, I am absolutely not a breakfast person. In fact, I almost always skip it and I’ve mentioned this on my other “What I Eat In A Day” posts. But today, I decided to eat some of these cauliflower bites. We had made them before and decided to make them again because they were so delicious. And by we I mean my mum lol. So for once, I actually had breakfast and loved it. And if you want to try them yourself, I’ve shared the recipe before. You can read the written version or watch the recipe on YouTube:

Lunch

What I Eat In A Day, Vegan, Gluten Free And Oil Free

For lunch I had some rice with chickpea curry, steamed okra and sliced cucumber. It was really delicious. I’m not used to having breakfast so I wasn’t too hungry. I just wanted to eat something simple and delicious. And this was perfect for it. Minus the okra, I don’t like the taste of okra or the texture but it’s really good for health especially for women so I eat some once in a while.

Dinner

What I Eat In A Day, Vegan, Gluten Free And Oil Free

For dinner, I ate this burrito bowl that my mum made and I paired it with some spring onion kimchi that I had been trying to finish because I needed the jar for some other kimchi I wanted to make lol. The kimchi cycle never ends. But it was actually a good combo. Like the kimchi brought an extra spark to the meal.

Conclusion

So, that was what I ate in a day. If you enjoyed this post and would like to see the video version of it, here it is:

      You should, they’re actually really good steamed. Not the best since I don’t like okra but still not bad at all.
      Thanks so much 😊

    About 4 years ago, when I worked in Death Valley National Park, the cook made the employees some sliced okra that had a yummy lemony flavor (wish I knew the recipe for that…usually I have fried okra which I always like.

      Wow, that sounds so delicious. More sour okra definitely tastes better. I rarely have it fried but I’ve had it a few times and that’s one way I actually liked it.

    You made me emotional by sharing a pic of breakfast 🥹

    Atleast you had something.

    Lady finger good for ladies, hmmm interesting 🤔
    That’s a different combination with Chickpeas 😃

    The dinner ufff, love it.

    Your pics are always so good. Do you get that red velvet cloth especially for this? I’ve seen you using the ring( or whatever it’s called) 😁

      Lol, yay 😅

      Yeah, okra helps with oestrogen production so it’s good for women.

      Thanks so much. The cloth is an extra pillow case that looks fancy 😅 Yeah, I usually use a ring light and that helps a lot for quality 😊

        Ring light is important these days.

        The other day I was thinking that it’s been forever since PG has made and share any video. Wish come true I guess.

    Hi Pooja! I usually don’t eat breakfast. normally just a bowl of cereal or a protein bar. I actually enjoy, eating cereal more for dinner rather than breakfast. I ate a southwest chicken bowl at Applebees for Lunch a couple days ago. So good! I need to make curry again 🙂

    All of those dishes looked delish. Very bright and colorful. Presented very well. I am seriously thinking about changing the way I eat. I am not getting any younger. Turning 49 has made me think a lot about my overall health in many ways. I know what I need to cut back on, but it is so hard to do when you have a sweet tooth. I have lost a lot of weight around the midsection, I am happy about that, but I just want to get over this pneumonia so I can go back to work, this really sucks.
    Thank you for sharing those delish recipes with us. You are doing a great job, keep it up. Have a wonderful week.

      Thanks so much. Yes, a healthy diet is vital especially as we get older. I know it’s tough to let go of sugar. I’ve been having a hard time with that too but I’ve had to give it up and I’ve been eating dates instead. Hope you recover from the pneumonia soon and are able to get back to work. Ginger is really good for recovery, try drinking ginger and lemongrass tea. It’ll help a lot.
      My pleasure and have a wonderful week too.

    I dont know how to make it but we have something called ochro rice where I’m from. I strongly believe it’s one of those dishes that you can’t have from just any one, but the very few occasions I’ve had it, it was great. This is coming from someone who didn’t like ochro because it’s slimey.

      That’s very interesting. I don’t like the slimey texture either but I think some methods of cooking can work well. I’ll have to Google ochro rice and learn more about it.
